Frogg Toggs has this "Frogg Toggs® Ultra-Lite2™" set of rain gear that I'm considering as a lower cost alternative [$25.00]. Is it new and amazing? I hope so! Has anybody had any success or failure with this product? It is certainly much lighter than the regular Frogg tog line, but is it just junk? Will I be cursing myself on the AT until i get to the next PO to pick up a $275.00 Zpacks "Challenger". I seem to sweat myself crazy inside any rain suit i ever use. I had a Marmot Precip in the past, but that's looking heavy and expensive to me these days. I wore that one out years back, and I'm out for a two month AT section on April 1st.
