I commute in Oregon, it rains.

I have Showers Pass pants, work well for keeping the water out but they're hot and the leg velcro is awkward. I have a non-bike REI rain jacket, works but bunches up in funny places.

My wife also has Shower Pass pants, as well as the jacket. It fits much better when seated on a bicycle. Kind of like motorcycle gear, it fits funny walking around, but makes sense once you climb on.

Still working on gloves. Wet isn't a big deal, but now that the weather has turned, wet=cold. Picked up some Planet Bike lobster gloves from the clearance bin, uncomfortable and certainly not waterproof. GoreTex motorcycle gloves have filled in, but they're bulky and a bit too much. Interested in the knit stretchy waterproof gloves, looks like they're $60+
