Gore-Tex is a waterproof and breathable fabric that was invented in 1976 by American chemists Wilbert L. Gore and Robert W. Gore. The fabric is made by laminating expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) to other materials, creating a barrier that allows moisture to escape while keeping water out. Gore-Tex revolutionized the outdoor apparel industry, making it possible for hikers, skiers, and other outdoor enthusiasts to stay warm and dry in even the most extreme weather conditions.
