In case anybody was wondering, Gortex says that it no
longer makes its fabric available for retail sale, either
directly or through distributors. I just asked them via
their web page and they said they don't.
Other, similar breathable/water resistant fabric evidently is available
through various outlets that supply people who wish to make their
own camping gear. The three names I was given by a
Massachusetts retail fabric store (The Fabric Place) are
all in the pacific northwest. I have not contacted
these outlets myself yet and do not know if this information
is current.
