KEY BENEFITS
Explore the high-level protective benefits of this technology
Durably waterproof in cold and wet conditions, protecting against rain, snow and sleet, even after many hours.
The highly breathable GORE-TEX membrane allows sweat in the form of moisture to escape effectively, offering a high level of climate comfort.
Revolutionary GORE-TEX THERMIUMâ„¢ insulation, strategically placed in critical areas, increases cold weather capability without bulk.
GORE-TEX THERMIUMâ„¢ insulation adds enduring warmth to footwear and gloves without compromising on agility, waterproofness, breathability or style. When placed strategically in cold weather gear, low-bulk, ultra-thin and non-compressible THERMIUMâ„¢ insulation is engineered to provide optimal thermal comfort over an extended range of temperatures.
Adding warmth to footwear or gloves has typically added bulk – reducing agility and dexterity. GORE-TEX THERMIUM™ technology allows for more warmth without sacrificing the vital abilities professionals need to get the job done well.
Through Gore's patented thermal mapping, which identifies critical areas of the hands or feet that are most affected by cold weather and heat loss, GORE-TEX THERMIUMâ„¢ insulation can be strategically placed in these areas to provide enhanced warmth and heat retention without sacrificing shape and design. The insulation can be seamlessly integrated into existing designs, enabling versatile customization with various shapes, layers and styles.
GORE-TEX THERMIUMâ„¢ insulation is engineered to stay effective, even after heavy use, and throughout and the life of the product. Crucially, the insulation is also waterproof - delivering consistent insulation whether gear is wet or dry.
Suitable for a wide range of styles GORE-TEX THERMIUMâ„¢ technology
brings additional thermal comfort to defense personnel during their missions in temperate and cold conditions.
Durably high level of thermal insulation - Due to hollow fibre structure with Rct ≥100 [10-3m2K/W]
