PR: GORE Announces New 100% Durably Waterproof Closure System

I had read about this a few months back; Gore asked some moto journalists to test their new closure system and it worked great. It is essentially a waterproof replacement for a zipper. This way, garments will be simpler to manufacture - no need for the rain flaps around zippers - and lighter. The new Lockout Closure technology also helps with the appearance of your apparel as well. It really is a revolutionary idea, and it will likely replace many millions of zippers in the near future - wow, that closure system has been in use for almost a century and is still going strong - before you know it. However, there is one caveat; it has yet to prove itself as durable as a regular zipper in race applications.
