Sizes run big because the Pro Action jacket and pants are
designed to be worn over clothing.
If your height and weight happen to fall into a box
with bold, blue text, the fit should be good.
If your height and weight fall in a box with smaller, black text,
the fit will be proportionately big (loose) or long.
big +
the fit will be looser than normal
big ++
the fit will be very loose
long +
the garment will be long
long ++
the garment will be quite long
long +++
the garment will be very long
For example, if you are 5' 5" and 250 lbs, the sizing
chart indicates 2X (long +++). The garment should not be loose, because
your weight falls within the 230-285 lb weight range for 2X, but the garment
will be very long because it is designed for someone 6'3" to 6'8"
which is about 12" taller than you are.
Similarly, if you are 6' and weigh 115 lbs, the sizing chart
indicates L (big ++). The garment should not be too long because
you fit within the 5' 8" to 6' 3" height range for L, but the
garment will fit loosely because it is designed for someone weighing 150-190
lbs which is about 55 lbs heavier than you are.

Frogg Toggs products are constructed with a patented process of three layers of polypropylene material with a center layer of microporous film. Because the pores are 20,000 times smaller than a water droplet, moisture cannot penetrate. Also, Frogg Toggs patented seaming process eliminates needle holes and possible water entry.
Patented fabric keeps you cool , even when you’re zipped up watertight.

Closeup of material
Subjective feel of material
After some wear and a washing, the fabric is soft to touch. Right out of the package the fabric is a bit stiff - almost paper-like - but it loosens up quite quickly. Comfortable to wear next to skin, though designed as outerwear to be worn over clothing.
Testing results
The Lightweight Backpacker tested the Pro Action suit with the following findings:
Waterproofness - completely waterproof. Doesn't leak through or even absorb water. Rain simply runs off.
Windproofness - moderately stiff winds do not penetrate.
Breathability - very breathable. Better than Gore-Tex; about the same as Activent.
Durability - After 100 miles of on-trail backpacking, the material shows no signs of wear. Not recommended for off-trail use.
Fire resistance - when exposed to open flame, material melts and can burn. Did not combust.

Recommended Usage
Activities:
Appropriate: The Pro Action suit is made of a lightweight material that is well suited to high energy activities such as on-trail hiking/backpacking, canoeing and bicycling.
Not appropriate: It is not designed to withstand rock abrasions or punctures from sharp objects and therefore is not appropriate for off-trail use.
Weather:
Appropriate: The Pro Action suit is designed to keep the user dry and protected from the wind and rain in moderate all-weather conditions.
Not appropriate: It is not designed as an outer shell for extreme weather conditions.
Care
Label reads: "Hand or machine wash cold water. Drip dry only. Do
not heat dry or dry clean. Avoid open flame or other ignition
sources. Oil or alcohol based products cause permanent stains." Do not dry
in a clothes drier.
Safety note from Backcountry Equipment: the
material will melt and can burn if in contact with an open flame. It
is advisable to remove the jacket, or at a minimum roll up the
sleeves, prior to cooking with an open flame.
Use on motorcycles: If your motorcycle's exhaust
pipe is exposed, please be aware that contact of the Frogg
Togg pant leg with the pipe is likely to result in a singe or burn
hole in the material near the ankle/shin area.
