PVC type rain suits seem to crack and fall apart really easily when it gets cold. How is the pvc/nylon in the cold?

In reality nothing last forever. I'm planing to used a couple times and discarted..yes PVC not only crack but tend to get cold that how lose it flexibility and cracks using it with nylon looks more stronger.. But we see if pass the text.

Sorry, but I can't answer this. Suit is not used in the cold weather. Hubby is a Golf Superintendent and uses it during the summer rains when he is working on the course.

My husband has been using his for 7 years many days in cold weather with no cracking issues

I haven't gotten this suit wet because I'm using it in a dry location, but my guess would be NO to both questions. The suit seems to be made out of some sort of strong, coated, paper-like material. It's 100% high density polyethylene and NOT heat resistant. I think either an autoclave or washing with water would destroy it. It MIGHT be able to be dry cleaned but I haven't tried that yet. It is disposable.

Hmm, I know it has kept me plenty dry, warm, and not sweaty and I have given it plenty of action, including violent swims. The neck gasket does leak a tiny bit, which happened a couple of weeks ago at Kilchis River on the SHORE when I got wave after wave of heavy rain dumped on me for a good half hour. Get one of those LL Bean fleece fishing jumpsuits for $50-60 to wear under it, and a sweatshirt to wear between it and the drysuit if it's cold outside, and you will be fine.

PVC as a wire "jacket" or wrap is actually not used very often. Mostly used for very cold environments. This is some cross of rubber and plastic.

This tube fits in a nylon fitted open top cover, so with the cover on, the bottom would be nylon with two handles and a front plastic tow rope connection. I would not advise using on snow with the nylon cover. will probably shred it up. But you could try without cover. The bottom is the same as rest of tube. Heavy guage PVC, or whatever towable tubes are made of.

The hose is pretty flexible in houston cold weather. The material is good and the product is well made.

It has a nylon bottom and won't slide very well on the snow. Icy hill, maybe but it won't be very stable. Also it doesn't have cold crack additive in the PVC and could bust if it gets too cold.

it works for a while here in 110 PLUS weather. I'm not sure about colder weather. It worked for about 6 months then began to loosen and hang down again. Good Luck! P.S. I used GORILLA GLUE and it has been doing better!

Its not like the ones that have the gritty stuff inside. Its just fabric and its great. If you really want it cold after wetting it place in the freezer for a couple of minutes. Its Great!!

Rubber hoses have proven to be much more durable than vinyl hoses. Easier to handle in the cold.

it is lined nylon so it should be ok in a drizzle. My thinking is that it won't do in full on rain for long time. Very light weight, I use it to carry a jacket, hat etc for overseas travel.

I backed into the mailbox last winter it was about 10 degrees out and it shattered the thin plastic next to the post that was the problem I had. Don't know if it would hold up to the bashers in real cold weather or not.

It feels like nylon. It's held up great. No wholes or tears. The weather is great outside, the kids are in it now. One of the best purchases. The price was so much lower on Amazon.

the material really wasn't designed for cold weather. although the tent will hold up fine, it does very little for the cold. the top of the tent can be removed for sky light, and it also has holes. these are only loosely covered. the walls of the tent are thin while the bottom is think for keeping out water. won't recommend for cold.

I would say its waterproof in the same way a regular nylon jacket is waterproof. in some serious downpour it will get wet. I bought this for shooting a beach assignment. It was not the kind of shoot with 3 assistants lugging a heavy pelican case across the sand. I wanted something lightweight that could be zipped up.Works just fine for me.

Yes that's what we have. Do not leave in car during cold weather.. Made of plastic will break

This is more pliable than most other hoses I have owned...it really depends upon the temperature in the air when you are trying to roll up the hose. When it's cold <40 degrees it can be a little squirrelly.
