Abstract

The invention relates to the use of a sheet material comprising a laminate of a relatively low density foam and at least one relatively high density protective layer in the manufacture of articles particularly to provide or enhance buoyancy and/or thermal insulating properties of the article. In particular the invention provides an article (such as an item of clothing) fabricated substantially from a textile or similar flexible material at least a portion of which supports one or more layers of the sheet material.
