Excellent waterproof trousers, small enough to fold up and pack but tough enough and thick for everyday use. I've tested them in extreme weather on the beach for several days in a row and no leaks and they also breath well so no sweat. Only minor things stop a 5 star rating. firstly no slot to access under trousers however the design makes it easy to access via the top, and not having a slot does make them more waterproof so it doesn't bother me. Getting them over the top of proper walking boots is slightly difficult even with the zip fully open because the inner lining snags on the soles but there is a knack to it and it can be done easier sitting down, this would be no problem with walking shoes or less chunky boots. I would definitely buy these again as they are good value and should last a while. They are a big step up in quality from the slightly cheaper ones that come in a pack away bag
