Reddit reviews FROGG TOGGS Men's Ultra-Lite2 Waterproof Breathable Protective Rain Suit, Khaki, Large

I used to pick up those 99 cent disposable ponchos from the check out lane and toss them in my glove box or back pack for emergencies. They're not worth the 99 cents.

I'd rather get a box of 32 contractor trash bags (4mil, 42 gallon).

I can make rain gear out of one, use it to collect water, use a couple around a sleeping bag to water proof it in the snow...

But to be honest, that's just for a beginner. Over time you want to replace all your cheap starter stuff with quality products. Now I've got a set of Frog Toggs that cost me $20.

Weighs 2 pounds, rolls up tightly and I can tuck it into my pack and forget about it until needed.

I'm still looking for something better, but this has gotten me through the last winter, so worth the price. I'm open to suggestions for better.

In the PNW you gotta have decent wet weather gear.

Looks like there is different kinds, any ones in particular to look for? I found these ones on Amazon.

Rain gear for you to wear? Frogg Toggs

I would go one or maybe two sizes smaller than you usually wear. If you want to find them locally then bass pro shops, cabelas, and target sometimes have them.
