Compared to PRO, ACTIVE can be regarded as one of the lightest and most breathable GORE-TEX fabrics laminated by Laminating Machine. All of this is due to the fact that GORE-TEX ACTIVE laminates the latest developed lightweight GORE-TEX film and fine 13-30 Danielian functional fabric. This extremely three-layer structure can enhance the softness and comfort of the product. For outdoor activities such as marathons, off-road running, cycling, etc. that require weight reduction, Laminated GORE-TEX ACTIVE products are very suitable to be chosen.
How can one apply the excellent waterproof and breathable techniques they are good at to running shoes? Regarding this question, GORE-TEX developed INVISIBLE FIT, which is a bold attempt. The GORE-TEX film was directly laminated onto the upper of the running shoes by laminating machine. Once the waterproof and breathable film was combined with the shoe material, the problem was easily solved. This also enhanced the support of the shoe upper and effectively eliminated wrinkles. The running shoes that The North Face has been promoting recently use this laminated GORE-TEX fabric.
Unlike PRO and ACTIVE, which are both three-layer GORE-TEX products laminated by laminating machine, PACLITE is a two-layer product. The inner layer has a special protective layer. The finished garment does not require an inner lining, so it is very convenient to fold and carry. At the same time, it also has excellent breathability. Clothes made of this laminated fabric are perfect for daily commuting. This is also the favorite GORE-TEX fabric used by Stone Island!
What is Gore-Tex?
What is GORE-TEX fabric? It is actually created by laminating a porous film between high-performance lining and outer fabric like a sandwich, providing a function of being waterproof, windproof and highly breathable. For high end products, people use hot melt PUR laminating machine to make Gore-Tex fabric. Why do we need to buy a Gore-Tex jacket when going to extreme environments? Why do we need a pair of Gore-Tex shoes when walking through water? Why are products with Gore-Tex so expensive? What exactly are we pursuing when we go for Gore-Tex? The answers to the above questions are related to Gore-Tex application and its laminating machine working process.
Isn't there some clothing on the market that claims to be double-layer GORE-TEX? Yes, if it's double-layer, it means there is one less layer of inner lining fabric.It is only done by laminating machine laminting the face fabric with waterproof and breathable film. If it's triple-layer, it is done by laminating machine laminating the face fabric, waterproof and breathable film and lining fabric togehter. As for choosing double-layer or triple-layer, it depends on your actual needs. For double-layer, its comfort and flexibility will be a bit higher; while for triple-layer, its layers are an integrated whole, making it easier to put on and take off, and it also has better durability.
Apart from the application in clothing or garment, Gore-Tex fabric is also widely used in shoes materials. The shoes are made of GORE-TEX fabric, usually made by laminating a film liner through laminating machine. This ensures that your feet remain dry at all times. However, basketball shoes have many areas with glue application, and those areas are not waterproof. Therefore, even in extreme conditions, you will still get wet.
PRO is a three-layer GORE-TEX fabric made by lamianting machine, featuring a revolutionary multi-layer film system with a unique microstructure. Its outstanding characteristics of high strength, durability, long-lasting wind resistance, and high-density breathability have always been its signature features. It is also the most resilient among all GORE-TEX fabrics. It is suitable for outdoor enthusiasts who need to stay in extreme environments for a long time. Many rock climbers and motorcycle enthusiasts choose clothing made of GORE-TEX PRO fabric.
