Predator Hardshell  v1.0 "Battlefield Tough" review by Army Times!

"...there is one more piece that I would like to mention from TAD Gear www.tadgear.com .  I don’t know the whole story here but TAD is a small outfit out of San Fran and they make small runs of some pretty nice jackets.  They have some cool pieces from what I can see on their website and a lot of it is aimed at the Spec Ops community and the ultra chic urban coffee commando.  The one piece I have from them is the Predator Hardshell[v1.0 ] which comes in Multi Environment Green.  This is a beautiful jacket with an unknown waterproof breathable that has an attention to detail and quality that is right up there with Arc’teryx.  Really.  I have not put it through the complete torture test but so far it has done very well and I expect it to pass with flying colors.  I mention these guys because I want companies like this to prosper, they bring creativity and a much needed commitment, passion and an anal retentive obsessive compulsive drive to the market that pushes everybody.  I wish them luck...."

TAD Gear took over 3 years to develop this newest generation of  hardshell.  We prototyped, thoroughly compared, built up and tore down, designed and redesigned our hardshell until we felt we finally had it dialed in to its current state and it was ready for action. 

Following our tradition and ideology of taking the best the technical outdoor industry has to offer and tasking it to perform in the tactical and backcountry arenas, the Predator Hardshell v2.0 is another state of the art apparel product to excel, move, and push as hard as you do.  You'll see the fine details and exceptional build quality, you'll feel the performance of it's carefully thought out design and excellent materials.  Wet weather and high winds coming at you can be more than harsh, wear the Predator Hardshell Jacket and tell mother nature to "bring it on".  From jungle rains, to winter woodlands, snowy mountains, and battlefield, our hardshell will keep the tough going when the going get even tougher.

The TAD Gear Predator Hardshell v2.0 uses our newest, state of the art "Storm Shield FLEX" 3 layer, waterproof-breathable nylon shell fabric.  Going beyond our regular Storm Shield 3 layer fabric as found in v1.0, this next generation of high performance, technical material has all the familiar well known benefits of a waterproof-breathable textile, but now also possesses a degree of mechanical stretch.  A hardshell that has stretch characteristics?  YES, the v2.0 Predator is that jacket. Maximum protection against the elements, now meets maximum mobility in an outstanding hardshell.  There is no other hardshell like this in its class.  The Predator Hardshell Jacket is fully featured with 7 organizing pockets, expedition tough, and of course has outstanding tactical practicality.
