[quote=Anonymous]Depends on what item you are talking about. For running around town, any one of those four brands is great. Get whichever one fits you best in a color you like.

I find that North Face ski jackets and pants are better designed for actual skiing than LL Bean and Columbia. I've never had Lands End ski gear, but haven't been impressed with the descriptions in their catalogs.

I bought my jacket late in the season and paid about the same as for an LL Bean jacket. The ski pants were a bit more expensive than the REI house brand, but are more windproof and fit me better.

That said, I've never bought a NF fleece jacket. The only reason I would is that it would zip into my ski jacket shell. I do have a Patagonia fleece that was probably a similar price point when new and I've had it close to 20 years. But my DH and I have Lands End and LL Bean fleeces for that length of time, too. For fleece, I think it comes down to fit and features (pocket locations, hem type, etc). Some of the nicer ones also don't hold odors or have the static problems as cheaper ones.[/quote]
