Last week's competition aimed to find out how much you'd learnt about Gore from the weekly Gore Top Tips we'd been publishing, by asking three multiple choice questions. The good news is that a bright and alert 86% of entrants were completely right, but we'd be keen to hear from those of you who thought GORE-TEX® fabric made a tasty pie filling.
However, at OUTDOORSmagic we're always willing to be proven wrong, so if you'd like to send your GORE-TEX® pies to Richard Gear, I'm sure he'd be willing to test them. Be a bit sensitive about what you write on the outside of the package though, because Richard's dog's called GORE-TEX®. Hey....hang on....
Anyway, pies aside, the correct answers to the competition were as follows:
1. As well as being waterproof, what other properties does GORE-TEX fabric posess?
A - Windproof and breathable
B - Water-resistant and non-breathable
C - Water soluble and breath resistant
2. Other than GORE-TEX, name another fabric that Gore produce?
A - WINDCHEETER
B - WINDSTOPPER
C - WINDBREAKER
3. Name another use for GORE-TEX fabric other than in outdoor and sports
wear?
A - Dental floss
B - Cocktail dress
C- A tasty pie filling
And the competition winner is Hamish Fenton, so if that's you, get in touch with your name, address, required sex of jacket!? and size.
