Gore Running Wear™ Sports Specific Design

Like every sport, every garment poses unique challenges. Any one of a multitude of factors can make a difference. To produce garments that support runners so that they can perform at the highest level in the most comfort, we utilize a combination of unique materials, expert craftsmanship, and a deep understanding of the athlete’s specific needs. We constantly analyze the sport in action, and interview athletes to optimize our designs and patterns. During the pattern-making and fabric-selection processes, we consider varied climate and perspiration zones, as well as the position and shape of garment seam lines, and cooling and ventilation areas. We do our fitting process in ‘Action Posture’ – while the model is running on a treadmill, for instance – for the best real-life fit.

The System Jacket

For Autumn/Winter 2009/10, GORE RUNNING WEAR™ presents the outstanding redesigned SYSTEM Jacket. This uses the new generation of GORE™ comfort mapping technology, which offers numerous options in terms of functionality and design. Clemens Deilmann, designer for GORE RUNNING WEAR™, describes the novel features and the advantages of the new SYSTEM Jacket.

What exactly is the new generation comfort mapping?

It’s a new laminating method in which lining fabric with different properties is subsequently applied to a special GORE-TEX® laminate. The design is more adaptable, and at the same time the needs of the body’s individual climate zones can be catered to more specifically and efficiently: warmth regulation, an accurate fit, ventilation, breathability and wearing comfort are optimised precisely where they are most needed.
