I also have the Sand jacket and pants. Worn daily for around 2.5 years....not yet washed once
I'm happy with them.
That said, the waterproof liner isn't always waterproof for me. Could be due to not washing it though......Leaks on upper thighs where water pools, and on arms between elbow and shoulder. Also, the waterproof liner isn't super tough; mine's worn in the ankle area from rubbing on boots.
Have been sunburnt on wrist from opening zips; lube up!
You look like you're ready for an Apollo 17 launch whilst wearing it, but the (perceived) safety of the colour and coolness in the sun outweighs any astronaut misconceptions.
I wear it year round in temps from -5 to 40 +. A good compromise.
