I find Weather writers are most use for keeping samples in.  In the wet all
the water from your sleeve pours into them and the screens are clear enough
for my tired eyes after a couple of years use.  The clips on the A3 folders
break much more easily than those of the A4 but I still use both in the
dry; smaller sites A4, larger sites A3 (ish).  If I have to work in the wet
then I use waterproof paper (and whinge a lot).  As Jim says you use very
few sheets per year and my heady investment of £40 five years ago has still
not been fully used up.

I once spent a very wet day with a weather writer and a Dictaphone, the
paper survived.... the Dictaphone I had placed in a bag to keep dry while
talking, why I ask myself did I not think about the crackle and rustle
which completely obliterated my audio capture!

Rite in the rain paper is also very good, its standard fieldwork equipment
these days
