Triple Aught Design (TAD) Raptor ProLite Event Hardshell Jacket, Brown Small NOS

The Raptor reduces bulk with the lighter weight ripstop eVent shell, eliminates the loops swatches of the Predator on the sleeves for even less mass, allowing for easier compression for packing, and overall felt weight on the user. It's designed as a true lighter weight alpine shell for serious backpacking and mountaineering. It's not an ultralight shell, but is a great balance of weight savings and durability.

The Raptor ProLite Hardshell was designed as a lightweight hard shell suitable for anyone working in the field. While the Raptor was targeted more at the civilian user, it incorporates elements from TAD's tactical designs such as pocket placement and other unique features that will work equally well for the guide, traveler, or the city dweller needing protection against the rain and wind. Even so, customers in the combat arena have been ordering the Raptor to serve as their main hard shell, but wanted to be able to pack it when not needed. The Raptor is constructed with a strategic blend of field proven traditional stitching methods and Bemis "welded" elements.

The Raptor is made from the newest GE Professional Line of eVent 3-layer waterproof/breathable ripstop fabrics. Every fabric manufacturer claims that their fabric is the best, so it's no surprise that the eVent family of fabrics claim to be the highest performance 3 layers on the planet. According to TAD's website, "GE's event Professional Division pushes the envelope even further with a line which is created specifically for the hardest use environments and individuals. Developed specifically for combat and law enforcement, the eVent Professional Line is the longest wearing, most breathable, waterproof 3 layer fabrics bar none. Using advanced ePTFE membrane laminates, eVent out breaths any other high end PTFE laminate currently available.
