Performance action sports product having a breathable, mechanically bonded, needlepunch nonwoven material combining shaped fibers and thermal and cooling fibers

This invention describes a layered material designed for action sports products like boots or apparel. It uses a special nonwoven insulation that breathes, dries quickly, moves moisture away, and regulates temperature, combined with a waterproof or water-resistant outer layer. The goal is to keep the user comfortable by naturally adapting to temperature changes during active performance.

Why it matters: Filed before advanced smart fibers for thermal regulation were widely integrated into nonwovens. Production methods for these complex fiber blends and layered structures may have matured, improving performance and cost since 2021.
