Draggin'

And no they're not waterproof. Goretex (or other waterproof membrane lined textile gear) needs to be washed from time to keep it waterproof. If the waterproof membrane gets bunged up it leaks. Do it on Gentle Cycle, use Tekwash for the textile gear and not a washing powder, otherwise he'll go all foamy next time it rains.

The Draggin' jeans are just jeans.

Havn't put mine to the test yet - hope I never do either.

Not water proof but do a pretty good job keeping the wind off. I wear mine over my work trou on my commute and there quite warm really.
