Quote from Alpine Underground on July 15, 2026, 5:18 pmThere are so many options out there for protecting yourself from mother nature and everything she can throw your way. What is your go-to setup for your outwear kit? Do you prefer the traditional jacket and pants? Do you like to step it up a notch with a bib pant? Maybe you are part of the small coalition of riders that prefer a one piece suit? let us know what you like the best and why. Also what brands you think are the best and what improvements can be made for an even better outdoor experience?

While I do LOVE a good one piece suit and you may even find me wearing them more often than not...I find its harder to regulate moisture and temperature.
Some of suits that I romp around in are the Nomis Mystery Suit and the 686 Gaper Suit.
DC Snowboarding and The North Face are bibs that I would recommend. The DC Snowboard brand tends to run small in the sizing, so watch out for that! Nomis is the opposite. The Mystery Suit is extremely baggy and loose fitting.
I've been using the same jacket since 2009 - Bonfire Chroma in the classic serape colorway.
