I would go with the Cabelas GuideWear Rainsuit if you have the money to afford them. They will last a lot longer.
Frogg togs are ok and they will keep you dry unless you get a rip in them. They are not made of very strong material and are not really cheap either. $70 for a Frogg Toggs rain suit that can easily get ripped apart is not cheap IMHO
I have two pair of the Cabales Gortex rain suits that are too small for me now. I need X large and they are both size Large. I have had them for over 15 years and the only thing wrong with them is that I outgrew them.
But the newer Guideware rain suits have zip in liners made of thinsulate which will allow you to wear them in the winter.
I have seen the catalogs at BPS and Cabelas and think I read were they have a new type of Gortex Material? Not sure how this is different than the origional type of Goretex that first came out.
Has anyone had a Goretex rain suit for a long time and had it fail to keep them dry? My Gortex Cabela's Jacket still fits me (Barely) But I found that it's waterproofing was wearing out. Which is why I was going to wash it in this stuff called NIKWAX TX. DIRECT WASH-IN. Check out www.nikwax.com

Note: I have not tried using this product yet. I purchased a container of it but have yet to use it. I'll try to report back if I ever use it and let everyone know if it works as advertized.
