The Shoe Addicts visited the Running Event this past December. Two of the Shoe Addicts, Mike and Adam, donned GORE-TEX gear and footwear and went into the Clima Tank, where they were subjected to some harsh weather conditions. This is the video is all about GORE-TEX and their move into running footwear and apparel, for warmth, comfort and for challenging weather conditions.

Here is what they said about their video and their visit with GORE-TEX:

Published on Jan 17, 2013

“This past December at The Running Event in Austin, TX we met up with a handful of companies who were there to show new products and technology coming out now or in the future. When we saw to the GORE-TEX display, Mike and Adam offered to take part in the product demonstration. So dressed head to toe in GORE-TEX gear, they entered the mini rain/wind tunnel and after a few wet minutes stepped back out to find themselves nice and dry under that Gore Tex protection.”
