There isn't a magic wand for repairing outdoor fabric. In some cases we can do an "invisible" patch. If the damage is small enough we can repair the fabric by applying seam tape to the under side, joining the edges together. This can only be done to very short, clean cuts like those made with a sharp knife. Even so, the white tape material can show through. For larger damage on newer garments we recommend design patches. We can add a stripe, pocket, emblem or some other feature to a garment to blend the repair into the design. This is a very effective way to repair and camouflage unsightly holes.

I don't know of any special repair kits for Gortex, but I know you can get patches which you iron on a rip to cover the whole. You iron it on the inside so the hole is not there but you will still be able to see that it was ripped. You may be able to get gortex patches but I wouldn't know where from. Try camping shops and big department stores like Lewis's in the materials section.
If you can't find a gortex patch then use a colour as close as possible and spray it with weather proofer to stop leakages.
