j.w.wimpyGood idea! An old Scandinavian trick: I had a pair of 'greenland jeans' I rubbed beeswax into on some pretty brutal wet/cold treks and it kept me warmer and drier than others' fancy Gore-Tex pants. The technique uses beeswax candles but a hot hair-dryer and a bar of wax is less likely to burn your new Rothco bag.
