False.

Burton's stuff is about the same size as most companies, but all I would recommend is a jacket.  Their gloves are pretty poor quality, and the pants won't fit well over your boots since they are usually sized for snowboarders.  I had a Burton XL jacket and it was way to small though.  I'm 6' 180 pounds.

Ronin fits baggy, expecially Team Fit items - check their site.

Fits slightly longer and baggy. Any 2l or 3l with 20,000 waterproofness is awesome for wet days.
Burton is overpriced unless you can find a end of season deal. Usually now or close to beginning of season to find the 07/08 on sale.
