Customer Reviews
Do NOT use this gear on or near a motorcycle.
I bought a set of these Frogg Toggs because they are specifically advertised as being a motorcycle/outdoor rain suit. I wore them ONCE for 1 hour on my motorcycle and both legs had holes melted through. The left leg doesn't even have pipes NEAR it and it still developed holes. The right leg didn't touch the pipe and still melted in large patches. I couldn't figure out what happened until I tested the material near my pipes and found that they WILL MELT without touching the pipes - but just by being near them.
Buyer beware. False advertising and a horrible product not designed for its use.
Edit: I've talked with Frogg Togg (the company) and they have agreed to send me a couple of the patch kits which they tell me are heat resistant. Although my previous criticism still holds I have to say that Frogg Toggs is a good company with excellent customer support. I would recommend this rain gear as long as you put the heat resistant patches on.
Is this frog watertight ? you bet it is.
First time I used this rain suit the zipper let loose from the bottom up. I was able to repair the problem and discovered this won't happen if your very careful when starting the zippor. The fit is not that great for short people. The elastic around the waist leaves alot of loose material in the chest area. Made me look like a black Pillsbury dough boy. The material itself is not what I expected. It looks like I could polk my finger through it if I really tried. It does have it's good points. Reflective white piping, a little carrying bag, it keeps the rain off and it does breath so you won't get sticky from traped moisture.
Great Rain suit
I bought the Frogg Toggs after doing quite a bit of research. These work great for my motorcycle, I've heard that they melt on hot pipes. I don't have that problem because my motorcycle is covered in fiberglass. I used these on a road trip and the temprature was in the 90's. The air flowed easily through them and I was cool even though I was covered up. When it rained they kept me dry. As far as I can see it's the best of both worlds and I would recommend these to anyone taking a road trip.
