     Company Gore has invented the waterproof completely waterproof and air-penetrable fabric in 1978 - and now, did not look back back, continues to do the innovations best-selling at enthusiasts of active rest, tourism and treking using new technologies and decisions.

     Why the clothes with membrane GORE-TEX reliably provide protection against dampness and a wind, and create comfort in any weather?

     For this purpose we shall familiarize with properties of membrane GORE-TEX.

Clothes from a membrane:

     Has long-term protection against water;

Than membrane Windstopper differs Gore-Tex?

As you have already noticed, company Gore makes not only a membrane (fabrics) Gore-Tex, but also a membrane (fabrics) Windstopper. The basic difference of these materials consists that last is specially designed for the maximal protection against a wind. The basic functions of membrane Windstopper do not include exclusive protection against a moisture, therefore all clothes from this fabric is processed by the special structures which are not supposing water inside of clothes.

This surprising property, became accessible owing to a special structure of a material when a stream of air (wind) outside meets a reliable barrier in the form of a membrane, and pairs from within is free through it passes.
As well as the clothes with gore-tex, and these clothes pass set of tests before getting on shelfs of shops. Among them such as:

What is membrane WindStopper?

      Membrane WindStopper, as well as membrane Gore-Tex, a product companies Gore (USA).

      The Primary goal of clothes from materials WindStopper to provide absolute protection against a wind in any weather conditions keeping, thus, good permeability for air, than is similar to material Gore-Tex, but also only. As to protection against a wind this parameter here is brought to, apparently, perfection, and the clothes from this material are classified as absolutely not not blown by a wind. It is similar to rubber, but only "breathes" - in it and there is a difference.

       The clothes on membrane WindStopper are used by fans of active rest, tourism, sports, professional travellers worldwide. Irrespective of an ambient temperature, everywhere where there is a wind, protection against it is necessary. This protection can be received by putting on of several layers of dense clothes, considerably having limited thus the mobility. And unless thus it is possible will take pleasure in freedom of movement at employment by productive leisure? Certainly is not present. It is much more pleasant to put on pair subjects of clothes on membrane WindStopper (a jacket and clothes of an average layer), having received excellent protection against a wind, and налегке to go to submit distances and to enjoy sensation of full freedom. 

How the clothes with membrane Gore-Tex work?

     The basic idea of company Gore consists in the following: " you cannot operate weather, but can operate a microclimate near the body ". How? Correctly putting on - putting on clothes which operate humidity, transfer of heat and protects from severe weather conditions.

     1) Management of humidity:

     When it is dry, then and warmly. Heard such expression? Especially from the senior, it is usual more skilled, generation? And in fact it up to the latest letter truly! It is simple. If sweat remains on your leather, finally it leads to cooling as which you feel. Evaporating sweat turns in water pairs which humidifies all air which is being between clothes and the person. And meanwhile, this air (between clothes and a body; between layers of clothes) also provides the basic warmly the person. Therefore good, correct, the clothes should delete sweat and not suppose any form of a moisture to your leather.

The basic moments of use of a membrane, repair, ...

     That the clothes on membrane Gore-Tex and Windstopper served long and kept all characteristics during all service life, and it can be years, it is necessary and desirable to observe recommendations of the manufacturer, company Gore, on leaving and operation of products.
To membrane, it appears, washing even opposite is not counter-indicative absolutely not, it to erase it is necessary. For certain many heard a myth that ostensibly times of a membrane are hammered washing-up liquids (powders, etc.) and bring to nothing all it breathing properties. I hasten to dispell this myth, erase and dry, and even to iron it is possible, the truth too on technology.

      Recommendations on washing, drying and a dry-cleaner of a product are always specified on labels of clothes, printed materials (brochures) accompanying clothes or official sources of the information - the Internet-site (www.gore-tex.ru; www.gore-tex.com; windstopper.com), at sellers of clothes from these materials in your region.
