Frequently Asked Questions

How can I restore my garment's water repellency?

Frequently Asked Questions - GORE-TEX® Products
You can totally restore a GORE??? product's durable water repellency (DWR) by using a topical DWR treatment product for outdoor fabrics, available at outdoor retail stores. (Note: We do not recommend wash-in treatments.) These special treatments help maintain and restore the DWR on the outer shell fabric of the product so that it remains water and stain repellent. Anyone can properly maintain the DWR on a GORE??? product.

What is Gore-Tex?

FAQ's Frequently Asked Questions - Motorcycle Superstore
Gore-Tex fabric is created when Gore laminates their patented Gore-Tex membrane to high-performance textiles, which are then used by garment manufacturers to make outerwear, accessories, and footwear. The Gore-Tex membrane has 9 billion pores per square inch, with each pore 20,000 times smaller than a water droplet. These tiny holes are too small for water and wind to pass through from the outside, which is how Gore can guarantee you'll stay dry and warm in a garment made with Gore-Tex fabric.

How well do Drymax? Socks work with waterproof-breathable material (ie: Gore-Tex?) shoes or boots?

Strabell - Active Dry FAQ's
Waterproof/breathable materials have membranes with microscopic holes which are great at keeping water out, but they breathe and move moisture vapor out of the footwear at a much slower rate than nylon or nylon-mesh. This situation makes it very important to wear Drymax Socks because they actually move moisture away from the skin and truly keep your feet dry. Therefore, the Drymax Socks are the very best socks to wear with shoes or boots made with waterproof/breathable materials. See similar questions...

What options can I get for my GORE-TEX? dry suit?

GORE-TEX? hoods (either removable or sewn in), color matched sleeve and thigh pockets, relief zippers, GORE-TEX? or latex socks, and reflective tape are all options that can be added to a new or existing suit. Please check with your local dealer or give us a call to check on prices and availability. The only products that we sell directly are repair and/or replacement items. This would include gaskets, gasket replacement kits, GORE-TEX? field repair kits, 303 Protectant, and Aquaseal. See similar questions...

Will salt clog up the semi permeable micro porous GORE-TEX? membrane?

No, this is a myth! Salt molecules are far too large to fit into the tiny holes in the GORE-TEX? membrane. If you don't wash all the saltwater off your garment after a trip to the ocean the remaining salt on the face fabric will attract moisture (so rinse it off!), but GORE-TEX? will breathe when the face fabric is completely saturated (even underwater).

What is System Restore?

Answers to Frequently Asked Questions
Please note that System Restore does NOT magically restore your ENTIRE system to a previous state. It ONLY reverts some important parts of your system. Therefore it is highly recommended to FIRST uninstall the problematic software, BEFORE you use System Restore to go back to a point prior to the installation of that software.

Will salt water damage my GORE-TEX? garment?

Frequently Asked Questions - GORE-TEX® Products

Why do I need to use a water-repellent treatment on my GORE-TEX? product?

Frequently Asked Questions - GORE-TEX® Products
Gore shell fabrics, the outermost fabric layer of a GORE-TEX? garment, are treated with an ultra-thin polymer coating known as DWR, or durable water repellent. This coating causes water to bead up and roll off the outer layer of fabric, instead of being absorbed. Water-repellent outer fabric provides additional insulation and prevents liquid from saturating your garment's outer fabric, a condition known as "wet out" that can make you feel damp and clammy.

What is the future of TeX?

TeX Frequently Asked Questions
Knuth has declared that he will do no further development of TeX; he will continue to fix any bugs that are reported to him (though bugs are rare). This decision was made soon after TeX version 3.0 was released; at each bug-fix release the version number acquires one more digit, so that it tends to the limit pi (at the time of writing, Knuth’s latest release is version 3.141592).
