Saga is probably the best brand style wise.

Personally I absolutely love armada outerwear. From their 10k/10k gear to their 3L gore tex gear its all very comfortable, cool and works really awesome and can take a great beating.

I know it's not up most of NS'ers ally, but my Patagonia Powslayer jacket is bomber, super durable, waterproof, and I like the fit (do wish it was a bit bigger for XL)

And my Trew bibs are also dope, though slightly less durable.

But a track suit from TJ max works too

Virtika is honestly pretty sweet when you can hop on with a nice discount. I recently got a jacket and pant for under $200, pretty awesome! Works for me...

Strafe and Trew are my favourites. Super tech fabrics, nice cuts, and they have big sales a few times a year.

Over the last couple years all my gear has become Ride.
Its fits me well, not tight, but not sloppy.
I have one of their Cocona jackets (some Gortex competitor apparently made from coconuts) and it is super waterproof, breathable, and stretchy.
