Men's GORE-TEX Jackets

A GORE-TEX jacket is a waterproof, windproof, and breathable outerwear made with a Gore-Tex membrane. This membrane has microscopic pores that block water while allowing sweat to escape, keeping you dry and comfortable in wet or windy conditions.

Yes, GORE-TEX jackets are worth the investment for their durability, waterproofing, breathability, and windproofing, making them ideal for outdoor activities in varied weather conditions.

GORE-TEX membranes are fully waterproof, as their pores are too small for water droplets to penetrate but large enough for sweat vapour to escape. However, the outer DWR coating may wear off over time and require reapplication.

Jackets rated above 25,000mm hydrostatic head are considered completely waterproof. GORE-TEX Pro offers maximum protection in extreme weather conditions

Wash your jacket on a gentle cycle using mild detergent, avoid fabric softeners or bleach, and rinse thoroughly. Dry it on low heat or air dry, then tumble dry briefly to reactivate the DWR coating. Reapply DWR when water stops beading on the surface.

GORE-TEX jackets come in 2-layer (lightweight), 3-layer (durable), and specialised versions like GORE-TEX Pro (rugged performance) and GORE-TEX Windstopper (windproof insulation). Choose based on your activity and environment.

Yes, GORE-TEX jackets provide excellent protection in heavy rain due to their waterproof membrane and durable water repellent (DWR) coating. They are designed for extreme weather conditions.

Consider your activity—lightweight jackets for hiking, durable ones for mountaineering, or insulated options for skiing. Look for features like adjustable hoods, reinforced seams, and layering compatibility.
