What is GORE-TEX?
GORE-TEX product technology is the pinnacle of innovation in weatherproofing for outdoor and winter sports gear. At its heart lies a revolutionary membrane paired with expertly chosen textiles. These materials undergo rigorous testing to deliver long-lasting products and complete waterproof and windproof protection, tailored to specific outdoor applications.The entire Scott GORE‑TEX winter collection is made with the brand-new GORE‑TEX ePE membrane to protect you from the wet, without polyfluoroalkyl (PFAS). The same waterproof protection, less harmful products. This ensures top-tier performance in extreme conditions.
How does it work?
The membrane is bonded to highly durable outer face textiles and, in many cases, backer textiles. This forms high-performance laminates engineered for their specific uses. To achieve complete waterproofing, the laminate is further reinforced with waterproof seam tape, effectively sealing seams and blocking water from penetrating through stitching. GORE‑TEX’s holistic quality system ensures unparalleled performance. From scientific material testing and field evaluations to style approvals, design consultations, and partnerships with specially trained factories, every step guarantees the legendary GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™ promise. This commitment provides ultimate confidence for athletes and adventurers alike, even in the harshest weather.
FAQ
Is GORE-TEX really more waterproof?
Short answer: yes. Long answer: also yes.
GORE-TEX products set the benchmark for waterproof performance. With high water column ratings and exceptional durability, these products are built to keep you dry through years of tough conditions.
Water column explained: Imagine a vertical tube filled with water standing on your jacket. A jacket with a 28,000 mm rating could hold a 28-meter-high column of water before leaking.For protection against the elements, a high-quality, waterproof shell is a crucial layer. Learn more about the art of layering.
Should I wash my GORE-TEX?
Yes, washing is essential to extend your jacket’s performance and lifespan. GORE-TEX garments are treated with a DWR (durable water repellent) finish that causes water to bead up and roll off the surface. Over time, exposure to dirt, sunscreen, and wear reduces this effect. Regular washing and drying reactivates the DWR. If water no longer beads, you can reapply DWR using a spray or wash-in treatment.
How to wash GORE-TEX

My product is damaged. Can I repair it?
Yes. For small tears or punctures, use a GORE-TEX waterproof patch to restore protection.
For more permanent repairs, bring your product to an authorized GORE‑TEX repair center. There, your gear will be restored and retested to ensure it remains fully waterproof.
