Raide Research

Founded in Carbondale, Colorado in 2023, Raide makes equipment and apparel for efficient human-powered movement in the mountains. Created by Kyle Siegel — a mechanical engineer with experience at SpaceX and The North Face — Raide blends cutting-edge design with a deep respect for the mountain environment.

Built for runners and mountain athletes who care about uphill performance and downhill style in equal measure, Raide’s products are lightweight, stable, and purpose-built to support big objectives, audacious goals, and the pursuit of the uncomfortable.
