Mixture of Sierra Designs from REI and Arc'Teryx LEAF stuff.
As much as I like the Arc'Teryx LEAF line, there is no way on God's green earth I can justify the cost.
WARNING: This post may contain material offensive to those who lack wit, humor, common sense and/or supporting factual or anecdotal evidence. All statements and assertions contained herein may be subject to but not limited to: irony, metaphor, allusion and dripping sarcasm.
It's worth the penny, if you have the hundreds of pennies to buy it.
There are 2 items in the LEAF line that are a must own:
Atom LT jacket
Kneepads
The rain jacket - Alpha LT. I don't live in Portland/Seattle, so I can't justify it.
Would those knee pads be the Military Knee Caps? I've been reading good things about those.

Yes. Absolute best Knee Pads/Caps around unless your going with the Crye Combat Pants with internal Caps.
I run the Dirty Bird caps for any time I need knee protection.
On Rain Gear topic, The Dirty Bird Sphynx is a hybrid Hard Shell/Soft Shell for wet weather protection for wear with body armor. It works very well, at a high price though.
I just realized I haven't said anything on topic here.
I've got an emergency poncho in a cargo pocket, a goretex jacket (still need pants, I keep forgetting about this) for winter, and just picked up a Frogg Toggs Ultralite2 suit.
