The Pursuit Half-Zip by Triple Aught Design

I’ve written about Triple Aught Design many times over the years. Simply put, they’re one of my favorite clothing brands. I’m slightly embarrassed to admit their clothes make me feel a little like Jason Bourne.

I tend to gravitate towards “tactical clothes” because they’re often really well made, but they’re also also often quite… utilitarian. They lack the aesthetic sensibilities of their civilian counterparts, and for someone like me that simply won’t do. That’s not the case with TAD, and that’s why we still get along after all these years. Let’s take their new Pursuit Half-Zip for example.

TAD Pursuit Half-Zip

Triple Aught Design describes the Pursuit as having a high fashion design aesthetic wrapped in performance base layer technology. It’s made from Polartec® Power Dry wicking polyester, and “features a host of superior technical qualities that combine to create a comfortable, highly breathable, and easy to care for performance piece.”

I’m stop quoting their website now (you can go read all this stuff for yourself) and instead explain why I am highlighting this piece. Simply put, I like the color. It’s blue, did you know?

I’m kidding! But only partially. I really do love the color, and I’m happy to be seeing more blue tones from TAD. However, that’s not the main reason I’ll be throwing more money their way. What I really like is the combination of cut and technical fabrics. It was only last year that I started wearing half-zips, and though the one I picked up sold me on the concept, it just didn’t have the oomph of the Pursuit Half-Zip.

If you’re interested in learning more about the Pursuit, you can head over to the official TAD website. The Pursuit comes in Black, Slate, or – my favorite color – siege. You can order one for $90 USD.

  1. It’s indeed true that Triple Aught makes some very well designed and functional clothing. Whats extremely frustrating is that they are really lacking when it comes to holding sufficient inventory. While this might be a ploy to increase the desirability of brand, I can personally say they have lost out on thousands of dollars in purchases from myeslf.

    • I agree, it can be a challenge. I’ve personally “had” to turn to secondary sellers over the years to pick up garments and gear that I’ve either really needed, or wanted. Always at a huge premium, of course.
