Leaving aside the science, the difference for me is that being an Italian company, Geox knows design. And design, especially in clothing and shoes sells. Most people buy Geox shoes because they look and feel great - the science of 'breathability' is just a nice bonus. Goretex stuff on the other hand is really ugly, hiking, mounteneering stuff.

Nice chart btw, would be interesting to see one with shows also a year or so prior to the volume spike in Dec 05. How is this different from shoes lined with Gore-tex?
