Are they water resistant or repellant?

These are supposed to be water resistant. I went into a creek and I was sure the pants would be soaked, but it beaded right up and it was dry. I have never been in a downpour, but at some point I am sure these pants will become truly wet.

They are water resistant. I have shaken dew and light rain off and not gotten wet. When they do get wet, they dry quickly.

Not sure about the terms but they deflect water. Raindrops roll off, but if you continued to soak them or doused them in water they would certainly get wet. They dry fairly quickly.

they are designed for boat so I would say water resistant but not proof, you don't want to immerse them into water.

I know they are water RESISTENT, not water proof. I would t use it until you know for sure they are completely dry before trying.

They are not totally water repellant, but do not soak up the water. My cushions are on an outside covered patio and of course, when it rains, they do get sprayed and one gets more rain than others. I have had NO problem with the insides getting totally soaked and getting flat. They always look the same whether dry or somewhat water sprayed. The fabric is heavy duty and of an excellent quality. I am very pleased with mine.

I wouldn't consider them water resistant but would consider the Tango Thong very water tolerable. In wearing mine, they sometimes get wet but always dry without drawbacks like shrinkage or staining. When my Tango Thongs need cleaning due to perspiration or just plan dirt I float them upside down in the swimming pool for a day and then let them air dry in the sun. I hope this answer helps and if you're on the fence about getting a pair of these, go ahead and get them. They are the best and most versatile flops out there. Jimmy

I've bought about a dozen of them for my back yard... I live in miami and i just had one good bad 2 weeks ago with not a lot of rain fall for the last couple of months. I would say they seem to be water resistant. But non the less happy with the product.

yes they are water resistant by their construction but not water proof as in deluge.

The ones that I have are Black water repellent outside, and a soft light navy blue color on the inside. I have two and they zip together. Awesome for summer camping and backpacking.

They are sweat resistant. I have used them for over a year and sweat in them 2-3 times a week with no issues.

I think they call them "water resistant", but unless you are going scuba diving with these they will be what you need. Trudged through several miles of deep snow post holing all the way and the layers under the gaiter were still dry.

I agree with M.Giese. Do not submerge them. I do think they are very water resistant. Very heavy rain. They could be made pretty much water proof with very little effort

Resistant and waterproof are 2 different statement. They are not waterproof.

They may be water resistant but definitely not waterproof. I've ridden with these in snow and rain.

This product didn't work for me but I believe it's supposed to be water resistant. May another reviewer can give you a more definitive answer.

i would say "water resistant" - they do fine in the rain, but i'm not sure how they would do if they were submerged in water! the collar is medium-weight nylon webbing with plastic hardware ... the battery and LEDs are enclosed in plastic, but may not be sealed.

They repel some water but I understand that dry cleaning might take away the ability. The pants are thin enough to dry fairly quick.

I can certify that they are water resistant. Not sure about water proof. They have been in my boat for 3 years and never failed. I put another pair in last year. I won't buy anything else. Great deal, great sound.
