Title: Frogg toggs?
Post by: Jamieb on August 05, 2009, 10:42:47 PM: I got a set as a gift last summer and I haven't worn them yet. Anybody give them a try? How rip resistant are they? 100% water proof? I'm going on a long backpack hunt this weekend and with rain in the forecast, I might put the frogg toggs in my pack. Their lighter then my other rain gear and pack much smaller so I figure they should be great for backpacking if thier not junk.
