Worth the money?

Needing waterproof trousers for a week long excursion doing some work/surveying out in the field.

Previously I've had over trouser waterproofs but they in the past have been as breathable as a bin bag.

Fjallraven waxed efforts seem to offer some protection, breathability, comfort and durability. But don't know if £200 is taking the piss or not...

Any thoughts? Thanks.

Just spotted this. I’m a massive fan and use trousers, shorts and jacket, as well as a rucksack. It’s only waterproof if you reapply wax regularly though. I tend to just wax the knees and bum area on the trouser so I can kneel and sit down.
