Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Vans UltraRange EXO Hi Gore-Tex MTE-3 is Winter-Ready

— October 28, 2021 — Fashion
The new Vans UltraRange EXO Hi Gore-Tex MTE-3 series is the perfect boot selection for consumers looking for traction, warmth, and cold weather protection. The technically advanced all-weather product from Vans features Moisture Management, Thermoregulation, and Traction in cold and wet environments.

The UltraRange EXO Hi Gore-Tex® MTE-3 boasts a Gore-Tex Moisture Management, "an industry leader in high-performance waterproof-breathable technology since 1969." Per square inch of the GORE-TEX membrane, there are over nine billion pores — ensuring breathability while letting internal moisture escape.

In addition, the waterproof package is a 3M™ Thinsulate™ cold-weather insulation that is powerfully warm and lightweight. The technology boasts a high "warmth-to-thickness" ratio without bulk that provides advanced freedom of movement.

Lastly, the Vans new UltraRange MTE-3 outsole features All-Trac™ all-terrain rubber compound that delivers true all-terrain grip.
