Texas Gore-Tex
Hunting or construction clothing worn by Texans during non-hunting/construction activities, particularly skiing. The clothing color is usually tree-and-leaves camouflage or hunter orange. It is worn by Texans and other rural or midwestern people. The term also applies when such clothing is used for any urban activity. Despite the name, the clothing has historically not been made from Gore-Tex, but was considered what Texans have in lieu of Gore-Tex. It is typically purchased at Cabela's or Wal-Mart. Popular brands include Carhartt and Cabela's.
