At the heart of GORE-TEX® fabric is an extremely thin membrane that's durably waterproof, windproof, and breathable.. Although textiles like microfibers, closely woven fabrics, and many fleece materials are often considered windproof, even light winds can penetrate most of these fabrics, making you feel chilled and uncomfortable. In technical terms, a fabric can only be considered truly windproof if its air permeability is 1.0 cfm (volume of air that passes through one cubic foot of fabric in one minute) or less. A claim the garment can easily enforce. Equipped with a range of practical features the Gore Bikewear Element Gore-Tex Paclite Jacket has you covered for what you need.
