Raide founder, Kyle Siegel, always has hot takes on backcountry gear, the problems it can create, and interesting ways to go about solving them. And with Raide recently launching their latest line of snowsports apparel and packs, it’s the perfect time to hear all about how and why they made things like the lightest backpanel-access backpack on the market; the warmest-for-weight down jacket; a new take on active insulation; a new way to use merino wool in baselayers; and more.
