I used to work hazardous waste and wear tyvek suits everyday. Generally the white tyvek would soak through in the rain after an hour or so, they also tore on me all the time. The coated tyveks would hold up in the rain all day and were much more tear resistant, but they were also even less breathable and a little heavier.

Glen added a storm flap over the zipper and sealed the seams with Roo Glue. The jacket performed well in wind and light showers, but it bombed when we hiked in rain/hail for an hour. His baselayer under the Tyvek jacket was soaked and he was plenty chilled. So, please heed this warning that a type 1443 Tyvek rain jacket is only good for wind and showers, not a serious rain. Its possible the Kimberly-Clark Tyvek suit (from Home Depot) may do better; it has a smooth outer surface and weighs slightly more. I will post an update when I get a chance to test it.

Its important to get type 1443R Tyvek, which is called "soft structure Tyvek". Its the type used in Tyvek clothing. My wife made a Tyvek rain skirt out of silnylon and she loves it. It's mid-calf length, which she says is about right. Also, she says it keeps her legs pretty warm. I plan to make one out of Tyvek to test out, and will report on it later on.

...Question -- instead of chaps, why not tyvek kilt?<br />I've never tried it, but it makes sense -- it's airy and moveable like a poncho, but not nearly as blousy, and at first blush, seems easier to construct. And possibly, it might have multi uses, like its older poncho cousin.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8864130178222513400.post-45982907350157195832012-05-01T00:21:11.690-06:002012-05-01T00:21:11.690-06:00how noisy is it when you move?how noisy is it when you move?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
