Columbia Sportswear has bought OutDry Technologies, giving itself a more technical image. The financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, but Columbia’s outlay is probably minor, considering that this breathable waterproofing technology generated sales of less than €3 million for its Italian developers and its financial partners last year.
