My Golite Tumalo rain pants finally gave out hiking the Sheltowee Trace earlier this month - at the time they had about 5' of Tenacious Tape holding them together.

Golite is out of business - no more Tumalos - and they never had them in stock anyway so now I"m at a loss for a suitable replacement.

Does anyone who used the Tumalo know of something comparable?

Basically what I'm looking for is a lightweight rain pant without a lot of frills - no zippers or anything like that and no cuben fiber or other material (dri ducks, etc.) that has to be babied.
