Though Go-Lite also manufactures them (they are sold through stores like 
Campmor), I'd also strongly recommend Rainmaker and Brawny's gear. They 
also sell tyvek, lightweight rain gear and Pepsi can stoves. I'm going to 
be buying some gear from them this year and find the Silnylon fitted 
groundsheet especially interesting.

Ron "Fallingwater" Moak sells them at Six Moon Designs as well.

Thru-Hiker.com sells Silnylon and gives instructions on how to make your 
own, as well.

If you have to seal the seams on anything made with Silnylon, use McNett's 
SilNet and not SeamGrip. SeamGrip won't hold; the silicon is too slippery. 
Six Moon Designs sells SeamGrip, too.

On a semi-related note, has anyone used SilNylon rain gear? Was the lack of 
breathing in the fabric a problem?
