In your guys opinion what's the best rain suit? Compare to price,can take the brush, and most importantly keeps every part of you dry!

I don't know about Frogg Toggs being the best :roll: They are cheap but they aren't durable. How long have you used them? I thought they were great for about a month after that they started to leak.

true rain coats and brians dont mix, danny is correct, Wicks will keep you pretty dry and are obviously briar proof. I have two jackets and when one starts getting wet I switch. My experience they keep you dry for around 2 hours in a pretty steady rain. Im not too interested in running dogs in a complete down poor. Ill sit in the truck till it lets up a little and then go back to it.
