I just bought a pair. Worn once and felt comfortable over the leathers. Lightweight and breathes well. Rain wasn't to heavy for the 2 hours, but shoes & calves got wet along the leg zipper/velcro!! Will invest in a worn car tire inner tube cut to fit over shoes and up the calf to keep shoes and calves dry. Expect the toggs will get plenty of use in the hot monsoonal season of vietnam. I got a repair kit for burns or tears, but the idea of the ironing board cover is a good one. Tanx.
