  1. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Put two individuals in identical wintertime conditions and their perception of comfort can vary by as much as 10 degrees.
    Weatherproof technical outerwear helps level the playing field.  
  2. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Did you know that you're most comfortable with a tropical body microclimate of 90°-95° F and 40-60% humidity?
    Windproof technical outerwear helps keep you in that comfort zone.
  3. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Cold hands are really hard to warm back up. Make sure your hands start off warm, and keep them that way by wearing
    gloves that are windproof, waterproof, and breathable.
  4. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Less than one teaspoon (5 ml) of moisture inside your glove insulation can reduce your skin temperature by 10 degrees F. Count on
    totally waterproof gloves to keep your hands warm and dry.
  5. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Because of higher fat levels, women’s bodies store and regulate heat differently than men's.
    Waterproof, windproof winter gear helps you stay in the comfort zone.
  6. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    The average hand sweats two teaspoons (10 ml) of water during an hour of skiing. Only
    breathable ski gloves will keep you dry and warm during these conditions.
  7. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Deep powder equals a great ride -- until you find yourself face down in it. Rely on
    guaranteed waterproof ski gear to keep you warm and protected out on the snow.
  8. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    The wind-chill effect can radically alter your perception of comfort outdoors. Rely on
    totally windproof ski gear to keep you warm and protected out on the slopes.
  9. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Did you know that each of your feet emit one-quarter to almost one cup of moisture a day? Whoa! That's why
    breathable footwear is the key to all-day comfort.
  10. GORE-TEX® Gear Comfort Tip
    Breathable technical outerwear can't stop you from sweating, but it can help prevent your clothing underneath from getting damp and clammy, causing you to get chilled in cold temperatures.
