Abstract

Protective garments are disclosed having fabric treated with a water resistant treatment. The water resistant treatment includes a combination of a water resistant concentrate and a solvent. In accordance with the present disclosure, the water resistant treatment is substantially free of fluorocarbon chemicals and yet provides not only excellent water resistance, but also excellent breathability and comfort. The water resistant treatment may be particularly applicable for use in reapplications.
