To New in America, well, if there is one thing this country is lacking, it is the likes of PUL and FunPlastic, etc. About the only ones I know of is Fetware, http://www.fetware.com/, LLmedico, http://www.llmedico.com/home/ and a hand full of plastic diaper sites.
One item of interest to my wife and I is the lil girl dress that Fetware sells, along with others. Get the ones using the Euroflex material (a US material, go figure). These are amazing dresses. It's like you can't really sweat in them. These are made by Gary Manufactoring in San Diego, a wholesaler. Gary has two rather hidden cataologs, first their diaper line at:
http://www.garymanufacturing.com/produc ... og2009.pdf
and then what they call "novelty" items at:
http://www.garymanufacturing.com/produc ... og2010.pdf

Look for the "Gary Dress" in this catalog.
Any items made with the Euroflex gets to be really expensive, but so worth it. Another item my wife likes is the Euorflex bed sheets. I don't see the flats listed anymore, but she many times will pull the flat sheet out and just throw it around her, naked, and walk in front of me. The TV goes off rather fast. Also, through Fetware or others sites, including Ebay, Gary makes a "Bloomer", that if you get a slightly oversized one, made of Euroflex, well, lets just say your wife can discover that if she ties your hands to the bed, and slips this bloomer over you, she can give you, well, whatever, a sensation that you have never ever felt like in your life. Whew. Getting warm..

But, the US has little to offer. I figure I spend $ 500-800 a year to help the European trade balance!

It depends on what type of gear you are looking for. If you are after inexpensive pvc gear it is available from many online sellers. SBR heavy industrial style raincoats and rain suits are available online from Grainger, Zoro Tools and Drillspot, yellow colour only. PVC heavy duty suits and coats by Grundens, Helly Hansen, Carheart to name a few are available from most marine supply stores and online.

I really like Pvc backed nylon rainwear not really into the heavy pvc

Now I am looking for the old style regatta raincoats. Know of any websites that sale them?

Ebay!

I hate ebay had so pretty bad buys on that site, and if I am buying my rainwear I would like it new.
