GORE Micro Grid Woven Backer delivers garments that are consistently the lightest & most compact in the industry. GORE-TEX Pro has a sparsely woven nylon backer that is twice as durable as traditional tricot liners & allows moisture vapour to pass quickly through to the GORE-TEX membrane. N80p-X GORE-TEX Pro 3 L Developed in conjunction with GORE, a project 5 years in the making results in an exceptionally durable plain weave nylon face with high resistance to abrasion. Dense construction minimizes the exposure of yarns to abrasive contact, reducing damage to filaments & maintaining surface integrity. A durable micro-grid woven backer reduces weight & is also highly abrasion resistant. DWR finish. DWRA finish applied to a fabric that will bead-up water on its surface to stop it soaking into the fibres. This maintains breathability & shortens drying times Expedition fit Has a larger cut that accommodates multiple layers without binding or restricting movement. E3D patterning Ergonomical 3-Dimensional patterning brings an additional level of articulation to provide enhanced mobility. E3D refers to an allowance in the garment patterning to provide extra gusseting and/or articulation in key joint areas to allow for maximum movement. Water Tight The worlds first Water Tight zippers to pass the W.L. GORE extreme wet weather test. Recco avalanche rescue reflector Using sophisticated radar technology, the Recco reflector forms the passive element of a 2-part avalanche search system. Ski resorts & mountain rescue teams carry Recco detectors, which send out a search signal, & the Recco reflector bounces back a directional signal that directs the rescuer straight to the reflector. More than 600 resorts & rescue services around the world use the Recco Rescue System as part of their immediate response.
