Again, smiply backing up Coop on this. In 2003 I bought a set of Red Ledge for myself and my son (in my case for something lighter/more packable than the Cabela's Ultrex suit I already had and for my son because he didn't have any rain gear.) The worked out great for us then and are still what I put on unless it's cool outside and I want the extra weight of the Cabela's gear. One thing to note, I did buy the pants with the long zippers on the outside so that they can be put on and off easily with hiking boots on, well worth the extra $10 or whatever they cost in my opinion. I think I spent about $80 total for each of us through Campmor.

Andre You get what you pay for. If you google both, you will have a chance to read reviews posted by other folks. I'm looking for a product that is durable and while still providing protection from the rain. The original Frogg Toggs has been discontinued. The newest model is the Pro Action that sells for $59 for the complete suit). Red Ledge rain gear is a little more expensive, but I have found it to be much more durable and something that I can wear when I'm off the trail and home. You can find the Red Ledge jacket on sale for $39.97 and the pants for $29.90. For ten dollars more, I would definitely go with the Red Ledge.
