I typically get "snowboard" pants but with the jacket it's often an alpine style, or even a ski style of jacket. Typically by a company like the Northface. In my case Sierra Designs. Spyder is just too spyder for me. Some sort of tacky Euro quality that goes on with that brand I tell ya...
They call them "bibbs". They are actually quite comfy.
I just bought a new jacket today. "alliance" is the brand name. Nice Jacket, has the powder protector inside, hood, goes to minus whatever. normally 175 paid 110.

That is what I have right now
Just got "snowboard pants" and have only ski jackets.
Columbia, convert. Good breathable jacket with a powder skirt inside, pleny of pockets and loops for an ipod cord. 3 seasons now and no tears or wear to speak of.
well i'm definitely a whore when it comes to this shit...I also have stuff that I've been wearing for like 10yrs now but whatever... My favorite jacket though I rarely wear it these days is one of my Dub Weathergears from like '99 with the wrist gaiter's and the snow camo trim and hood. I have a couple of BonFire's as well as their pants which although they do button connect the gaiter to the pant they buttons wear out and rarely stay connected. I have an old school convert jacket as well that I use for when it gets super cold as it's got a heavy lining that keeps you super warm I also have a Volcom puffy jacket that I use sometimes but my gf bought it for me and I don't really like it since I'm a big guy already and puffy + puffy = marshmallow man! I just copped a foursquare set up on super close out as well as another pair of Volcom pants that are insulated so when it gets cold I can wear less layers and still stay warm. I know I have more but I can't think of them now...
