You need to know Gore-Tex

Necesitas conocer el Gore-Tex

Do you want to enjoy nature without being hindered by bad weather? Then you need to know about Gore-Tex.

This synthetic material is the best option to protect you from the cold, rain and snow.

Why?

Because Gore-Tex has three unique characteristics that make it the perfect material for outdoor activities:

  • Waterproofing: Gore-Tex is a membrane that prevents the passage of water, but allows water vapor to transpire. This means that garments made with Gore-Tex are waterproof, but will not make you sweat.
  • Breathability: Gore-Tex allows water vapor to escape from the garment, preventing sweat buildup and body cooling. This will keep you dry and comfortable, even if you are exercising or working hard.
  • Durability: Gore-Tex is a very durable material, which can withstand adverse weather conditions. This means that your Gore-Tex garments will last for many years.

Where can you find Gore-Tex garments?

In Esports Sant Moritz we have Gore-Tex garments from the brand Norrona – Norwegian brand, which manufactures premium ski and mountain clothing, since 1929.

We have both men’s and women’s collections, with pants, first layers and second layers.

You are sure to find the model you love 😍.

Also, don’t forget that from this year, with our loyalty program, St.Moritz+ if you rent ski or snowboard equipment through our website, your reservations accumulate money(5%) so you can spend it on your purchases in any of our three stores in Arinsal.

So now you know!!! Save by buying your new Norrona Gore-Tex gear in our stores 🥳.

Is it maintained?

Although it is not particularly well known, all technical materials require a minimum of maintenance, both for washing and to ensure that they remain waterproof.

In terms of washing the recommendation is not to abuse machine washing, since the movement inside the washing machine drum deteriorates the material and causes it to lose its qualities. For this reason, except under special circumstances, it is not recommended to wash this type of garment more than once a season.

In terms of impermeability- as indicated above, the material per se is impermeable, but over time these properties deteriorate. Law of life 😳

But don’t worry, in Esports Sant Moritz, we have a range of Grangers brand products, which are specially designed to minimize wear in the process of washing the garments, as well as to ensure the maintenance of its impermeability. Don’t hesitate to ask us about them! 😉
