I wear these when it's drizzling. When it's raining hard I switch to the Stratos pants (linked in post #2). Waterproof nylon, not breathable at all but I prefer them to the feeling of cold water dripping down my leg into my shoe. FWIW, on days w/ heavy rain I also put on gaiters, keeps my feet much drier.
