View Full Version : Raindrops keep falling on my head...
What do you guys use? I'm a boat person and I really like having bibs/jacket when it's *****ty out because you stay like %90 dry. The problem there is that my set of rain gear weighs 4lbs. What is a decent alternative?

The Marmot Pre-cip jacket weighs about 12 oz. for the Medium size. The Marmot pre-cip pants are about the same weight with full leg zippers. Both are waterproof and breathable.
Very good products. I like Marmots raingear very much.I only take the pants in the dead of winter.
Frogg Toggs work. They're cheap and fairly light. Downsides: a bit bulky, and attract mud and dirt like crazy. They're sorta breathable, but like other raingear, if it's halfway warm out, you'll sweat.
