LEDE Ballistic Storm Jacket And Pant

Tuo's Ballistic StormJacket and Pant are a field-proven solution for hunters who prioritize reliability in the face of volatile weather. The foundation of Ballistic Storm is its sophisticated three-layer polyurethane (PU) laminated polyester fabric, which serves as the core of the proprietary H-Tuo waterproof and windproof breathable membrane system. Unlike standard outerwear that can trap heat and lead to internal saturation, H-Tuo creates a climate-controlled environment, acting as an impenetrable barrier against torrential rain and biting winds while allowing excess heat to escape during high-exertion stalks or pack-outs.

"At Tuo, we focus on the intersection of advanced technology and real-world durability," said Steve Allie, marketing director for Tuo. "The Ballistic Storm series has been put through the wringer by backcountry hunters and professional guides alike. From its AquaGuard zippers to the strategically taped seams, every component has been proven to keep the hunter protected and focused when the weather turns."

Further distinguishing the Ballistic Storm is its integrated approach to odor management. By utilizing Polygiene StayFresh to inhibit odor-causing bacteria and OdorCrunch to capture environmental scents, the garment allows for longer stays in the field with less maintenance.

By pairing the moisture-shedding power of a DWR-treated 3-layer shell with the specialized mobility of articulated joints and a customizable fit, Tuo provides a garment that moves naturally, suppresses odor and keeps out the elements.
