I got a killer deal on my Teknic jacket, I really like that and the Olympia is very comfortable for warmer weather. For cold weather I wear the liner out of the Olmpia jacket with the linered Teknic jacket.

Both the Terminators and super dutys are comfortable but I'd pick the terminators first.

The Tourmaster insulated pants are very comfortable and easy to put on even over my big feet ( with my riding boots 11-1/2 EEEE )

The only thing so far which wasn't money well spent was my cheapo leather thinsulate gloves. They're good to 40* but were also only $20 so no big loss.
