HD Overpass II for me. Great suit, not as pricey as the gore-tex, but imho, they work dry! Rode through several big thunderstorms while in the Smokeys, no drips, no runs, no...well you get the picture.

I have the First Gear pants also. BUT, WHATEVER YOU BUY. Try putting them on in a hurry. Sometimes what looks good is a PITA to put on.
