What kind of material is GORE-TEX?

GORE-TEX” is a high-functional material that is used in many sports and outdoor goods, and is so popular around the world that it is no exaggeration to say that it is a synonym for waterproof items. It was developed by WL Gore & Associates, Inc. in the United States. In 1976, it was first commercialized for use in tents, and since then it has been used in a wide variety of outdoor goods and rainwear. It is no exaggeration to say that today, it is used in all high-functional items of famous brands, and it has gained support in the apparel industry as well.

Trivia: Structure of GORE-TEX® Fabrics

GORE-TEX® fabrics are made of a thin sheet of polyurethane resin called a “GORE-TEX® membrane,” which is a membrane-like material with numerous holes, to which the outer and inner fabrics are attached. The holes in the GORE-TEX® membrane are of an exquisite size, allowing water vapor to pass through but not water. This has established its position as a typical material used in functional clothing, as it meets the needs of outdoor and sports scenes that “want to repel rainwater, but prevent steaminess after sweating. Furthermore, GORE-TEX® membrane has a three-dimensional spider-web structure, which also has the added benefit of dispersing wind and preventing it from hitting the body.
