Generously sized, sealed seams/zipper, waterproof

Reviewed in the United States on January 25, 2024

Size: X-LargeColor: BlueVerified Purchase

Off to Iceland in February (snow, rain), realized the light rain jacket which is fine for Texas would be a tight fit over my warm coat.
This is a big improvement; waterproof seams and zipper, packs small and light enough to add to a day pack, no problem.
Reviews and FroggToggs said these were sized generously, and I agree. I usually wear a size Large coat, and this jacket, size large, fits wonderfully loosely over my size large coat.
Sturdy zipper, snug hood. Inner surface has a comfortable pebbled surface. Don't worry the low price means shoddy construction; for carrying along and keeping the rain off, this is a good choice.

Very Basic Rain Wear - But Fits VERY Large

Reviewed in the United States on November 20, 2021

Size: SmallColor: KhakiVerified Purchase

Bought this for ultra-light backpacking.

This is a VERY VERY basic rain jacket but it gets the job done. No pockets, wrists are elastic and pretty tight...keeps the water out but can get a little annoying. Having no pockets keeps the weight down (5 oz!) but a pocket would be a useful thing (lighter, keys, etc.). You're left with digging into pants pockets and I really like to have a place to "park" my hands when it's cold/rainy.

One thing I'd note is this fits VERY VERY VERY large. I'm 5' 7", 165 pounds. I usually wear a medium jacket so for an outer layer I would think medium, maybe even large but the medium was HUGE. Frankly, the small is HUGE as well but manageable. I was considering returning it but given the price I decided to hang on to it given it's weight and it's ability to pack down nicely.

I’m 6’3” and 250#, and XXL fits great. Arms are long enough, hood fits well over a baseball cap, and the torso reaches 6-7 inches below my belt. I can swing a golf club easily with no bind. It is strictly for protection, and has no insulation value.
Bonus: this thing cuts wind!
Negative: no pockets

Decent and Budget-wise.

Reviewed in the United States on July 2, 2023

Size: MediumColor: KhakiVerified Purchase

I used Frogg Toggs for years when hiking. In general, they are good for rainy days, but not when things get a little heavier. Also, I find they tear easily as I move through the dense woods or over rough terrain. Granted, this is the base rain jacket, and friends I've hiked with have used the more heavy-duty ones, but I've moved up to something a little more durable more recently. I still have this as a backup, though. I had to tape a few holes, and now I keep it for day trips. Generally it's a decent choice for those wishing to stay dry and save weight.

Defective and Horrible Customer Service

Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2024

Size: MediumColor: BlueVerified Purchase

I bought this jacket for keeping in the car for unexpected rainy events. I wore it perhaps five times before it catastrophically ripped apart at the seams when trying to put it on as I had done previously. I contacted the customer service number for the seller that is on the tag. Initially a pleasant response but came to discover the seller does not care about selling in my opinion defective merchandise: was told this product only has a sixty day warranty which in my opinion indicates the seller knows this product is defective and will likely fail after sixty days. In my opinion the seller should be ashamed to sell a defective product and not take ownership of doing so but instead dismissed their customer. I was offered 35% off another product: why would anyone in their right mind but something else from a seller who sold a defective product?

I had a set of Frog Toggs I used when fishing in Canada. However, they were too heavy for use in Florida. I used this garment on a fishing trip and it was perfect. it broke the wind in the cool mornings but were still comfortable throughout the day.

The Price is Right!

Reviewed in Canada on August 3, 2023

Size: MediumColor: KhakiVerified Purchase

This is not the most durable rain jacket, but for the PRICE of other "ultra-lite" rain jackets you could have multiple of these. Keep one in your car, one for hiking, one at work. This is the perfect jacket for travelling, I took one with me on vacation and it took up no space and added nothing to the weight of my suitcase. Awsome, Awesome, Awesome!
Highly recommended!
