As the weather gets wetter and colder how do you know that you're getting a boot that not only looks good but will keep your child's feet warm and dry this winter? Fortunately Primigi's selection of GORE-TEX® waterproof boots give you the match of sophisticated style and high technology performance.

As good as leather is, it will never keep an active child's feet completely dry, either due to water penetration from playing in the rain and snow or from hot and sweaty feet after hours of play. However, with GORE-TEX® shoes and boots the breathability and waterproof qualities are guaranteed.

GORE-TEX® fabrics are made by laminating GORE-TEX® membrane to high-performing textiles, then combining them with an innovative solution to ensure waterproof protection.

The reason GORE-TEX® fabric works is down to its unique membrane which contains billions of tiny pores which are thousands of times smaller than a single droplet of water yet still hundreds of times larger than a molecule of moisture vapour. So whilst rain cannot penetrate the GORE-TEX® layer, moisture vapour created by hot and sweaty feet can escape easily.

The breathabiltiy of shoes and boots using Gore-Tex is a very important atribute. Feet stay dry, because any perspiration is disappearing through the GORE-TEX® layer, so your child's feet don't feel sticky and damp. Especially in the winter weather, the ability of your child's feet to breathe makes all the difference in keeping their feet cosy and dry.
 
These factors are apparent in two of Primigi's quality range this season. The Primigi Tessyboot is a great all round boot for any girl this Winter. The distressed synthetic and leather upper give this boot a rugged look. The fleece lining and leather footbed, along with the GORE-TEX® waterproof lining add to the comfort of the boot.  The imitation buckle and metal stud trims along with the small heel give this Primigi boot a very grown up look, yet the rubber toe protection offers that extra protection for playing outside. There is also a full length side zip fastening.

Girl's boot Primigi Tessy uses GORE-TEX® Insulated Comfort Footwear. The Insulated Comfort Footwear keeps feet dry & comfortably warm. Ideal for cold conditions and winter outdoor activities.

GORE-TEX® Insulated Comfort Footwear offers a range of insulation options to keep feet warm, dry and comfortable in cold conditions. Especially designed for long lasting comfort during the winter season.

Benefits are the best combination of insulation on the boot together with breathability to ensure the foot remains cosy and dry, and the foot doesn't sweat. However, the tough waterproof barrier keeps the rain and snow out.

Boy's boot Primigi Blank is a boot every boy should have this winter. The leather and fabric upper, GORE-TEX® fabric lining, and fleece footbed help to make this a really warm and cosy winter boot. There is a padded ankle and two adjustable velcro straps to ensure these Primigi boots offer the best fit possible. There is a flexible rubber sole with a shock absorber in the heel and added protection over the toes.  The Primigi Blank also contains a GORE-TEX® performance waterproof breathable lining to ensure that feet stay dry and comfortable whatever the weather. 

Primigi Blank uses GORE-TEX® Performance Comfort Footwear. GORE-TEX® Performance Comfort Footwear keeps feet comfy and dry and is ideal for a wide range of winter conditions and play activities in the snow.

Benefits are that it is insulated for conditions that change. It has the best mix of insulation and breathability so that it will keep feet dry and warm during the winter weather, yet still offers long lasting waterproof protection.
