Article of apparel including fabric having auxetic structure

This invention describes clothing made from a special fabric designed to stretch in an unusual way. It uses a thicker yarn to create a pattern of interconnected segments, forming small cells. A thinner yarn then fills in the middle of these cells, creating a material that exhibits auxetic properties (meaning it gets thicker when stretched). The claims specifically describe a version where a third yarn is also used, with the thinner and third yarns stitched together to fill most of the cells.

Why it matters: Since 2021, advancements in computational textile design and simulation software have made it significantly easier to model and optimize complex auxetic fabric structures, potentially streamlining the development process for specific performance characteristics in apparel.
