                    They will be available in stores from autumn 2018, identified through a white diamond logo.
Gore-Tex Infinium Thermium footwear products use a thin layer of insulation around the toes that allows for shoes with a slim silhouette that can protect against cold as well as from overheating when wearers move indoors.
The new brand also includes soft-lined shell fabrics, insulation and a range of stretch gloves.
Christian Langer, head of sales and marketing for Gore Fabrics, said: “The Infinium brand marks a key milestone for Gore. Consumers will find even more innovative products to pursue their outdoor passions, whether they plan a Himalaya expedition or ride a bike to work. With this evolution we want to address new growth areas with our brand partners and are well positioned for opportunities.”
As well as the new Infinium products, Gore says it has created a new way for footwear manufacturers to integrate a protective Gore-Tex fabric, lining or laminate in running shoes with Invisible Fit technology.
