The seams and stitching of a garment can drastically affect its ability to keep the elements out. A proprietary seam sealing method developed by Gore-Tex, this waterproof taping is used on critical and non-critical seams throughout the garment, and adds an additional layer where necessary. Gore-Tex waterproofing ensures that no water or wind breaks through even the largest stitching holes. This is the pinnacle of seam sealing.
