I am planning on DIYing myself some Pertex Shield Rain Pants. I am wondering how I should plan to seem seal them. Any suggestions?

McNett Seam Grip?
Ask thru-hiker – Ace is very knowledgeable
Don't bother seam sealing because the seams are verticle? Water tends to just run down the seam rather than inside
I really wouldn't bother.
Cheers
I suspect Seam Grip would work pretty well. If you want a classy job, dilute it a bit or just use Tent Floor sealant from McNett which I think is the same stuff but thinner.
The crotch area is probably the most important.
