Default Wrangler 13MZW Water Resistant Jeans

Just found out that Wrangler makes water resistant jeans. Anyone have any experience riding with these. Sound's like a great idea to me and the price isn't bad. Lebo's has them but some on-line stores have them for a little less too. About $40 a pair.

OK maybe the jokes are all done now (just kidding). I thought these looked like a great idea. Ironing them (the heat) will reactivate the water repelents. I'd really like to know if anyone has been in the rain with them. Keep up the replys.

I've never tried them, but this is where I normally get my wranglers, decent prices compared to our local western stores.

Thanks. I think I will get a pair and give them a try. I'll surely report on them later.

I've got Wrangler jeans. They are NOT waterproof.
Should I iron them?

Probably hot and the sweat can't evaporate. I wear the regular 13MZW and on the rare occasions that I hit heavy rain I put on rain gear.
