About Raide

Raide makes premium equipment and apparel for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains. The name means steep in French. Founded in Carbondale, Colorado, by Kyle Siegel, the brand grew out of frustration with a gear market that left out people who care equally about uphill performance and downhill style. Siegel brings mechanical engineering experience from companies like SpaceX, plus time on the Performance Outerwear team at The North Face. The TrailTech shorts and belts are designed for those who want to go further without the baggage, with low-profile pockets that keep bottles, gels and snacks close to hand with zero bounce. Raide talks about biomechanical engineering, with every detail honed for efficiency.
