GORE-TEX® - GORE-TEX has been an innovator and industry leader in high-performance waterproof-breathable technology since 1969. Each square inch of a GORE-TEX membrane has nine billion pores—and each of those tiny holes is 20,000 times smaller than a single droplet of water. Simply put, rain and snow cannot get in. And it gets even crazier. Each one of those billions of pores is also 700 times larger than a water vapor molecule, which is the key to breathability and allowing internal moisture to escape as body heat and temperature rise. Engineered with a classic internal bootie or Invisible Fit™ construction for a more natural and lighter feel, the GORE-TEX “GUARANTEED TO KEEP YOU DRY™” promise is trusted in any condition.

3M Thinsulate - 3M Thinsulate is warm, lightweight, powerful, and thin. The extremely fine microfibers in Thinsulate help to trap air and block body radiant heat loss, making for an incredibly efficient insulation while still allowing internal moisture to escape. A high warmth-to thickness ratio also enables reduced bulk and advanced freedom of movement. In other words, Thinsulate material traps more air in less space, giving your foot more room to breathe.
