    Default FLW Rain Suit?


    I am looking at getting a rain suit and was wondering if anyone has tried the FLW rain suits at Walmart. I am curious about comfort (hot?) and durability. I would love to get Gortex, but its a little beyond my price range right now.

    Thanks in advance for your help

    I have the FLW Raingear from Walmart and I really like it. I got it last spring when it was on clearance.

    I bought the flw rainsuit when it first came out. This is not an opinionated answer, this is proof from experience. I will never buy another one. The thing was very uncomfortable and it never came close to keeping me dry. It leaked through and everything. I cant say anything from experience about the frog togs, but all I've heard on them has been excellent.

    I own the FLW rainsuit and I realy like it also. It does keep me warm as well. I bought mine a little big and if it's cold I'll wear a jacket under the suit. It is very durable to. I have used mine while sinking brush, fishing and while working in the rain.

    I don't know personally but I have heard that the frog togs are great except that they tear easy. Don't know anything about the FLW, sorry.

    I have used frog toggs. They are a good suit and comfortable but they will pick very easy. If you are easy on your clothes you will be fine with these but if you are like me they will get picked. The best thing is they are very affforadable. I use them when it is windy to cut the wind and in early morning when boat has frost and heavy dew on seats to keep my clothes from getting wet. They are a good product espically when goretex is so high. Onr thing I would recommend is get the bibs and not the pants.
