Why do GORE-TEX® garments need seam tape?
When GORE-TEX® fabric is made into garments, seam tape is used to seal the edges of the cut fabrics and the tiny holes created by sewing. These holes may be small, but they can cause leaks. We specially manufacture our own GORE-SEAM® Tape and regulate the seam-taping process to ensure compatibility with our fabrics and the durability of the seam’s waterproofness.
