GORE® Wear Cycling Collection
WITH THE NEW GORE ® WEAR COLLECTION FOR XC SKI ENDURANCE OUTDOOR ATHLETES NOW CAN BE SURE TO GET THE LATEST GORE TECHNOLOGIES AT FIRST HAND.
Our products stand for highly innovative apparel for cyclists and runners. For fall/winter 2018 we are extending our offering by adding a XC Ski collection to our portfolio. Our mission is to turn pioneering Gore technologies into new product concepts. The new XC Ski collection will meet your expectations in the same way as our innovative cycling and running products, enabling you to experience unique outdoor adventures.
The products have been engineered with the newest GORE® WINDSTOPPER® technologies in combination with stretch materials and an aerodynamic design, offering aspirational cross-country skiers complete comfort and protection.
„We got inspired from many cross country athletes who wore our bike and running wear on the skiing trails. Consumers obviously trust in our brand and products. Nevertheless there was clearly a need for a dedicated cross country collection which enables athletes to improve even more.“ GRIT PROMBERGER, PRODUCT DEVELOPER „Our mission was to design a collection that balances contrary needs. Cross country skiers need a wide motion range in the upper body and arms area, yet an athletic fit. And while being protected against wind chill and cold, the fabric must allow enough breathability and ventilation to avoid overheating. So it was crucial to give it a practical try and listen to athletes feedback.“ KRISTINA MORA, PRODUCT DESIGNER
