Hey guys,
i’ve bought 2 “heavy duty” rainsuits from lowes and every first job that i use it at the crotch area rips… where do you buy your long lasting rainsuits?
you robably should quit buying one size smaller that you normally wear. Just Kidding. you should try harbor freight, if they have one in your area, if not go on thoer website. hope this helps.
Same thing happened to me this week. After two suits that the crotch ripped out I switched frm large to extra large. I am 5’9" 175 lbs to give an idea of my size. I purchased the large suits from Home Depot and Lowes. The extra large came from Lowes. J&J’s idea to buy a larger size will probably work.
i got xxl when i normally wear xl but still it ripped. i looked on ptstate.com and found this link: Dutch Harbor Gear, outdoor clothing, safety apparel, rainwear., the Willapa’s seem to be very durable (and pricey too)
Hey Cedric,
I buy Halley Hanson rain gear it’s the best, I bought a set 30 years ago and I just retired it last year, After retiring it I got another set and it should last just as long…Pricey but the best !
One other set almost as close is from Charhartt I never bought one but it looks the same.

You need the heavy P.V.C. material that guys wear fishing. If you have a bait and tackle shop around try them or go on Cabella’s or pro bass shop. Healy Hanson, Guy Cotton are a couple of big names. The stuff will last forever if you treat it right.
Good question, Ced, the same thing happened to me on my last job. I got through a summer on a $20 Coleman rainsuit from Wal- mart. I have been wanting to check out Cabela’s for a while now, so now I have an excuse.
