5.11 (https://www.511tactical.com/) is a bit uniform shop, but you may also want to consider going to a local uniform store and figuring out what options you have there. Your local fire fighters and cops are buying their stuff locally and having patches put on, so see what's there and what can be ordered in. Usually uniform shops have lots of catalogs about too. 5.11 carries some of the most common stuff out there, like the EMT taclite pants: https://www.amazon.com/5-11-Taclite-Mens-Pant-32-32/dp/B004DT0NQ0/ref=sr_1_5?ie=UTF8&qid=1510084402&sr=8-5&keywords=emt+pants

For non-winter helmets look at the petzl vertex, it's got lots of accessories and is pretty popular. For winter, get a ski/board helmet with ear covers that you can drop helmet speakers into. If you'll be on snowmobiles, consider if you need special helmets for those as well.

For "medical gear" you should have someone with formal emergency medical training that can stock that for you, and the training should follow along with the equipment. A lot of people buy stuff that they've never really used before. Figure out how you'll treat traumatic bleeding, then buy that gear, train on it, and put it in the bag. Don't put stuff in because it might work someday someway.

With outer clothing (goretex stuff, etc) it can be tricky to figure out because it's super expensive and custom. If buying $800 worth of snow pants/jackets per person with $100 of customization for each one is in the cards than do it, but because of that price tag often teams on a budget will simply say "wear a red jacket and black pants" which is a little easier for people to follow. You can keep names and insignias on helmets.

You can also just require something standard like "black or dark blue pants, and a red top", and then have people toss a vest on like this: https://www.amazon.com/KwikSafety-Presidential-Reinforced-Reflective-Construction/dp/B071JR8W4G/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1510084754&sr=8-2&keywords=class+2+work+vest

Personally I prefer to pick my own base layers and just wear a vest or over-shirt (non winter). I'd much rather wear my own personal wool base layers, and women often find clothing fits pretty difficult.
