I have also had good luck with the Columbia titanium pants and jacket wickers underwear. used for all of my outdoor activities from fishing to sledding. keep an eye on eBay picked the wife up a full set for less than 100 bucks new with tags 
Just an FYI on snowboard gear...
I used old snowboard gear for a couple years and tore the hell out of the pants. They were too baggy and when moving around on the seat I kept ripping out the crotch. Damn baggy snowboarders!

I bought my wife a full set of Scott outerwear. Slingshot jacket and Scott bibs w/Reima ...... Good looking, well made, and once she wears them I'll advise on how they perform.
I found some Klim Togwotee bibs at gforce powersports for $240, didn't think that was so bad.

That is a crap shoot but the coats, pullovers and pants/bibs are sweet! I have 3 sets and nothing is wrong with any of them except that the older stuff has shrunk, therefore the need to buy new (I buy last years stuff at a mark down price)
You gotta keep the pants pulled up over your boxers. Nobody's pants will last if they are buckled around the bottom of your azz.
What he said.... there are some good deals out there right now so you CAN afford to buy Klim!
I bought some precision mountaineering gear at a closeout sale in the twin falls mall. It was about $90 for a coat and bibs. I was very impressed with the quality and design. I wear it before my much more expensive gear that i now keep for,,,,,I am not sure why I keep it!
Klim defianltey expensive. But so worth it that i bought a second pair. had 5 years on my first set and they still look new. also use the Klimate gloves and there boots are awsome also.
I am tall and skinny..........
XL is usally it..........thanks for the offer I will keep it in mind
That is unless you really did chit yourself
Yeah I have been looking at Mountian Hardware, OR and now the scott stuff. I like the price and look of the scott. Not sure how well it works.
It sounds stupid but I NEED a pant or bib with belt loops. I also want the coat to have a hood. I what something that will fit numerous roles, I dont ski, but snowshoe from time to time..
I was thinking a good gore-tex shell and a good gore-tex pant.
I keep going back and forth if I want true Gore-tex or if I am willing to take the risk on some other mystery "breathable" fabric............
Its just money............ might as well do it right
Just hard to swallow $600-1000 for snow gear...............
the search continues
Check the closeout section at www.rockymountainsnowmobile.com They usually have some good closeout prices on last years stuff

No chit, but knowing JBB there is some errant man butter scattered throughout them.
