Part of the sustainability framework of the GORE-TEX Brand is prolonging product life. Alongside using durable materials, the regular and correct care of a GORE-TEX product also ensures that the product continues to function as intended and prolongs its lifetime. As Mike Soucy said, “Buying fewer things to use in the outdoors is one way that I can contribute to environmental sustainability.”
