FAQs

What is GORE-TEX?

Gore-Tex is a waterproof, breathable fabric membrane and registered trademark of W. L. Gore & Associates. Invented in 1969, Gore-Tex can repel liquid water while allowing water vapor to pass through and is designed to be a lightweight, waterproof fabric for all-weather use. GORE-TEX is a membrane made out of millions of tiny holes. It lets moisture in the form of vapor pass through but not liquid molecules. So, sweat and heat can escape from this material, but water cannot enter.

How do I know when shoes are waterproof?

A waterproof shoe is usually constructed of rubber, PVC, or both. This is notably true for the sole, while neoprene or synthetic leather is used for the top part of the shoe. The non-porous membrane of a waterproof shoe prevents water or other liquids from accessing the interior.

What is the difference between water-resistant and waterproof shoes?

A waterproof substance or product is entirely impermeable to water penetration, which means that no water can get in or out of it. A water-resistant product or substance will keep water out to a certain extent.
