Breathable but waterproof material

Knowing what it's like to feel weighed down and restricted in some of that heavy, rubbery fabric of rain coat we get from the first big rainstorm? Because it can get hard, you want to stay dry and that raincoat is starting to feel like a sack of potatoes on your back. What if there was a magical fabric that would keep you dry without overheating you? That Unique is exactly where waterproof breathable fabrics come in! A brand of fantastic materials to keep you from getting wet while at the time letting wind through and are comfortable. 

Two words, "waterproof" and "breathable,", you think big OLD difference right? Breathability is a term that goes hand in hand with waterproofing, but it can be tricky to wrap your head around how something can repel moisture using one of these waterproof breathable ptfe membrane products and still allow excess body heat to escape. Here is where science has to step in and tell us how these fabrics actually work.

The Science of Breathable Waterproofing"

Rainproof materials are typically made of a special material such as Gore-Tex. This Unique material even involves a unique layer to protect against water-in this way. It is punctured with very small holes, which are not larger in size that allows welcome air breath while it filters out all water droplets from the air. This breathable ptfe film allows you to get fresh air with out getting wet by the rain.  

Waterproofing that is breathable is designed to allow body heat and sweat to escape at the same time as being effective in keeping water out. Your body sweats to cool you down when you are running or playing. The thing is that when you put on some material which absolutely does not let any air in, the sweat gets stuck to your body and doesn´t allow it to evaporate leaving us hot and pretty uncomfortable.

Why choose Unique Breathable but waterproof material?
