How it works
4-layer laminate construction

The core element in GORE-TEX Performance Comfort Footwear is a 4-layer laminate that offers wearers both comfort and weather protection.

How it works
Multi-purpose materials

The layers of the GORE-TEX laminate are made up of a highly abrasion resistant, quick re-drying textile lining material, the microporous, breathable and waterproof GORE-TEX membrane made of ePTFE, a moderate insulation layer, plus a protective knit layer.

How it works
Ideal for a broad temperature range

The wearers’ feet are protected from water, and changing weather, all year round, while sweat in form of water vapour can easily escape to the outside.

Ideal for

Bottle Test

Only upper materials with a water vapour permeability of ≥5 mg/cm2/h are allowed to be used in GORE-TEX footwear. This is more than 6 times higher than standard requirements.
EN ISO 20345/347 requires only 0.8 mg/cm2/h for all upper materials
