If anyone has some brand names they could give me so that I can find some good ski pants and a jacket. I'm a male skier. Doesn't matter what style, give me anything you can think of so that I can look it up. I did have my eye on the Armada Radar Jacket (uninsulated), let me know what you think of that one.

right where to begin... your better off just going onto the retail sites and looking some outerwear up then asking opinions!

check out getboards they got great Oakley, Armada jackets and pants!

Sierra Skis and sierra snowboards also have some great deals on last years jackets pants and also this years just go on look em up and theres even a chat advice section where you can get a member or staff to match up for you!

Thanks, that site is proving to be useful. You answer is not quite what I was looking for though. I don't plan to buy online. I live in Whistler and there are enough shops for me to buy stuff from. What I'm asking for is for specific outerwear that you recommend or companies that make it. Just so that I know what to look for. Tell me of a particular jacket and matching pair of snow pants that you know and recommend.

o sorry man i see what you mean!

Well the Oakley terrain Jacket (last season is pretty sweet) and if you get it in the yellow you can match it with the blue oakley enlist pants (sounds weird but looks good) also theres the oakley air raid (very expensive but a popular choice). Oakley Bradford jacket is also nice but tough to match up with pants!

Armada wise look at the radar Jacket with the Quasar pants see the combo here:

Saga is very popular on here so if you can get hold of that then your ballin i guess!

Thanks. I hadn't heard of Sage, Orage or SMS before. I think I'd still like to get my hands on the Armada Radar jacket. If anyone knows of anything similar let me know. And would you recommend that jacket?

its a very good jacket was thinking of getting it myself! 10K waterproofing i believe and is a lightweight jacket (which i prefer to puffys) all in all cant reli go wrong with the Armada outerwear and there threads are so fresh so if you can find one for sale near you snap it up!
