Abstract

Example implementations include a textile apparatus for transporting perspiration and heat, the textile apparatus including a substantially planar and heat-conducting substrate including at least one recess, and a textile film including one or more fibers disposed in contact with at least one substantially planar surface of the substrate and at least one surface of the recess. Example implementations also include a method of manufacturing a textile apparatus for transporting perspiration and heat, the method including forming a nanofiber solution, extruding one or more nanofibers from the nanofiber solution, forming one or more recesses in a substantially planar surface of a substrate, and integrating one or more of the nanofibers with the substantially planar surface of the substrate and at least one surface of the recesses.
