Clothing made with the highest quality functional material, GORE-TEX PRO
"By utilizing the rich functionality nurtured by nature, people can live more comfortable lives." Based on this philosophy, Goldwin continues to develop products that deliver optimal functionality in ways that minimize the environmental impact. For the 2025-2026 season, the company is offering a series of men's and women's models equipped with GORE-TEX PRO, which is exceptionally durable and breathable among GORE-TEX materials
What is GORE-TEX PRO?
| series | Features | durability | Breathability | Comfort |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| GORE-TEX PRO | Ultra-durable, highly breathable, and stretchable | ◎ | ◎ | ○ |
| GORE-TEX Active | Highly breathable, lightweight, and focused on movement | △ | ◎ | ◎ |
| GORE-TEX | General-purpose, waterproof and breathable standard | ○ | ○ | ○ |
| GORE-TEX Infinium | Windproof, breathable, and water-repellent (not waterproof) | △ | ◎ | ◎ |
PRO is stronger, gentler and more flexible
The key to its "durability" lies in a technology called "GORE-TEX PRO most rugged technology." Only materials that meet rigorous standards for tear and abrasion resistance are used, resulting in the most durable GORE-TEX fabrics ever developed. It also employs a
solution dyeing method, where the fabric is dyed at the raw material stage before being spun into yarn, reducing water usage by approximately 45% compared to conventional methods where the fabric is dyed after completion, making it an environmentally friendly material. Furthermore, a lineup using recycled nylon for the outer fabric is planned to be added in the future.
In terms of breathability, the jacket uses GORE-TEX PRO most breathable technology, which not only provides extremely good breathability but also achieves a standard that was previously only met with textiles of 40 denier or more, even with 30 denier, and has also succeeded in making the jacket lighter
GORE-TEX PRO stretch technology provides up to 20% more stretch
GORE-TEX+@ Function
This top-of-the-line jacket is designed to deliver the best performance in any skiing situation, and is equipped with cutting-edge features in every part to keep you safe and comfortable in extreme environments
It's designed not only for comfort, but also for ease of wear and removal, reducing the risks and stress of being out on the snowy mountains. The hood fits snugly around the head and features a three-dimensional design that doesn't restrict vision or movement. The adjustable cord, which can be adjusted to avoid contact with the face, can be easily released with a simple pull
In addition, the left chest pocket has a mobile holder made of insulating material to protect digital devices from the outside temperature, and a RECCO reflector is embedded in the right sleeve to improve searchability in an emergency
Available in two colors: "Iwacon" and "Asaiwacon"
This latest series not only uses the finest materials, but also reflects Goldwin's commitment to pursuing the functionality that skiers desire. The GORE-TEX PRO 3L Jacket & Bib comes in two elegant colors: "Iwacon" and "Asaiwacon."
