Fitting like a sock
Lightweight elastic shoes are gaining traction. Not surprisingly, as they effectively contour to the shape of the foot to provide enhanced comfort. The new GORE-TEX® 3D fit footwear technology also delivers waterproofness, windproofness and breathability.
Unveiled and awarded at this summer’s OutDoor Show in Friedrichshafen, Germany, first models will be available in-store and online beginning in February 2019.

Sparking New Ideas and Opportunities
Silicon Valley is home to some of the world’s biggest technology companies, leading academic institutions and thousands of start-ups. The Gore Innovation Center places us in the middle of it all — a space where we collaborate, explore and spark opportunities with fellow innovators. From our recent Digital Health Innovation Day to forums and make-a-thons, we partner to solve challenges and bring new ideas to life.

A Special July 4 Anniversary
Three years ago, aerial photographer Iwan van der Schoor hit the water chest-first when his parachute failed. Paramedics rushed him to physicians, who got him to the specialty cardiology team that repaired his ruptured aorta with a Gore device. Shortly after, a coordinated medical team returned him to his family.

Every day, our products perform in challenging environments where the cost of failure is high. We're proud to deliver solutions that improve lives.

Fighting on several fronts
Firefighters do more than extinguish fires. When freeing people from collapsed buildings, crashed cars or other crisis situations, they can face exposure to blood-borne pathogens and potentially harmful particulates. The new GORE-TEX Moisture Barrier with GORE® CROSSTECH® Product Technology protects against the weather and blood-borne pathogens and common chemicals — all in a flame retardant uniform.
