Which is the right GORE-TEX® technology for you?

With clothing made from GORE-TEX®, it doesn’t matter if you’re left out in the rain because you stay dry. The material’s breathable quality allows the water vapour created by sweating to escape to the outside.

There are a variety of different GORE-TEX® membranes, and the overview explains the differences between them. They all protect you from the rain and provide long-lasting breathability, but you may prefer either a more robust or a lighter technology depending on the activity or adventure.
