Overview of the technology

At the heart of GORE-TEX fabrics is an extremely fine, cutting-edge technology that is durable, waterproof, windproof, and breathable. It contains over 1.4 billion pores per cm². Each pore is 20,000 times smaller than a drop of water but 700 times larger than a water vapour molecule (sweat). In other words, rain doesn’t get in, but sweat evaporates. Result: you stay dry in all circumstances.
