I wear mine all the time.  I love how they keep me warm in wind and rain.  Even cool days.  I wear them around the house too like sweats.  So comfy!

I bought a pair a couple years ago and they have stayed in my bag ever since. I have never worn them at all.

Mine are very warm so I have worn them to a few late year football games,I also wear them when I coach and it's cold. I wore them to work one day when it was pouring and started to take them off in the office and everyone freaked!

I find them handy on a golf trip for evening wear around the hotel/motel while hanging out with the group.  Since you already have them along, it's easy to serve in place of yet another pair of pants/shorts for the trip.

I use them when I am shoveling the driveway on a windy day.  They keep the jeans bone dry and help deflect the effect of the wind.  They are a great product!

I've seen them when it's just raining.  I see them a lot at school too.

We go on a golf trip every year end of Jan.  It can be cold and windy, so I wear them even if it is not raining.  Big difference with keeping comfortable without the constant wind.  I also wear them to football games and concerts when it is raining.

I can't say enough good things about my Dry Joy rain pants and this time they saved my day.  I travel for work a lot, and obviously I always try to sneak a round in.

I was in NC and had a long way to walk from the parking garage to the conference room.  It was raining, blowing wind, and pretty terrible out.  As I sat in the garage watching people try to tie plastic bags to them, I was also wondering how I was going to avoid sitting through a conference soaking wet? it dawned on me- My Dry Joys.

I popped open my trunk, unzipped my bag and suited up in my rain suit.  The Dry Joys worked wonders as always, and kept me bone dry.  I folded them up under my chair when I got inside, and I seriously think I was the only one who wasn't wringing out their pants the whole time.

I've also used them snowmobiling when my pants got destroyed.  They're pretty versatile

Best pants ever.

Got my wife a pair for x-mas.  We wear them at soccer when the elements call for an extra layer.  No better rain/wind blocker.

I agree OU.  I wear them as an extra layer in the cold weather.
