I noticed that BPL is out of these?
I ordered a pair last year and am looking for another. These are the ones that weigh around 10-12 oz for the set. My pants in size small weigh 3.8 oz.
I was wondering if these are the same thing:
Jun 12, 2009 at 10:12 pm #1507946FroggToggs sells driducks in 4 colors and 5 sizes for about $17, including shipping.

$11.99. Bought a set there last month. Delivery in 3-4 days.
Jun 13, 2009 at 7:06 am #1507972Cabellas is another source. By the way, these really run on the large size.
Jun 13, 2009 at 9:16 am #1507986I've picked up a few pairs at Dicks Sporting Goods stores for about $15 each.
Nov 24, 2009 at 10:55 am #1547762I bought a DriDucks TrailPak suit from the Frogg Toggs website. Couldn't find that product locally and I was in a rush to get them for a hike on the Oregon Coast.
The first suit they sent me contained two bottoms and no top. I contacted customer service and they promptly (2 days UPS) sent me another suit. They didn't request the first package sent back, either… so I ended up with three bottoms and one top for the price of one suit. : )
I posted my thoughts on the product in the DriDucks review thread.

Nov 24, 2009 at 11:32 am #1547772Glen's Army Navy has them for $10.75 a pair + S&H.
David – Driducks aren't that bad if you take care of them. They can last a season or more if you treat them right.
Nov 24, 2009 at 11:32 am #1547773Both my local Sports Authority and Dick's Sporting Goods had them in their camping sections in the fall. I saw them in Sports Authority just last week on clearance at ~$11, but only in brown!
I also found a set of blue tyvek painter's overalls last week in my local Home Depot for $9. Haven't tried them out yet, but they are even lighter than the driducks – 7oz for the whole suit versus 6oz each piece… ;-)
Nov 24, 2009 at 7:51 pm #1547909It weighs less, but works much worse. Suggest you try it out in the shower before you take it out on the trail. The ones I tried were barely water resistant.

They have drop stoppers (same thing) for $15 free shipping, or dri ducks for $3 more.
