I just got a set of Frogg Togz rain gear, has anyone used it before and what did you think?

Keep them away from the exhaust if they don't have a heat shield on the leg.

I tried them once. Seam in the crotch area leaked. Three pair. That was a while ago. They might be better now.

I bought a Harley set when ( see the first line)

I have a set and they keep you dry but you will sweat you *** off if it is a hot day. Make sure they dry out before you roll them back up to so they won’t mildew. Not much more to say about them.

I spent 10 hours in the rain taking an MSF course last month. I'm really glad I had my Frog Toggs. I stayed dry and comfortable. I did buy the optional heat shield patch.

They work fine for the price. Do not wear them on a whale watching trip, get sea sick, wash them in a laundrymat in Maine, and then put them in a commercial clothes dryer. Don't ask me how I know.

I wouldn't wear them to a formal function or to bed but they're light weight and work as designed. No doubt there are better at staying drier, better made, and won't melt but for the price they work just fine.

They're OK. They'll do the job. As it's been mentioned here, when you stop, make sure you put your right foot on the ground as far away from the bike as you can.

My first set I had leak problems and then the inseam blew out. Their customer service was fantastic as they replaced them with a complete new set that was upgraded at no charge. I haven't had a problem with the new set at all.
