A label and related method of manufacture that includes a fabric made of yarn. The yarn includes a fiber that has been recycled, that is recyclable, that is organic, that is biodegradable, and/or that can be derived from a material that is known to be environmentally friendly.

A patterned fabric with an image pattern includes: a fabric sheet having opposite first and second surfaces and a plurality of pores extending through the first and second surfaces, each of the pores being defined by a pore-defining wall; and a plastic film bonded to the first surface of the fabric sheet and having opposite first and second faces and an image pattern formed on the first face. The plastic film is perforated to form a plurality of through-holes extending through the first and second faces. Each of the through-holes is defined by a hole-defining wall. The hole-defining wall of each of the through-holes extends into a respective one of the pores and wraps around and is bonded to at least a portion of the pore-defining wall of the respective one of the pores.

Provided is an injection molded panel having a top side and a bottom side. The panel is configured with at least an elastic portion, the elastic portion including a plurality of undulating deformable strands intersecting with one another at rigid connecting locations, the rigid connecting locations alternatingly extending at opposite sides of the panel at alternating top peaks and bottom peaks, the peaks defining together the respective top side and the bottom side.

A snow sock is provided that includes a covering that extends in a circumferential direction. The covering has a thickness and an outer surface. A first thickness section is present and extends along a first arc length, and has a first thickness section inner surface that engages the outer surface of the covering. At least 50% of the first thickness section inner surface engages the outer surface of the covering and/or a first fill element. A second thickness section is also provided and is spaced from the first thickness section. The second thickness section extends in the circumferential direction along a second arc length, and has a second thickness section inner surface that engages the outer surface of the covering. At least 50% of the second thickness section inner surface engages the outer surface of the covering and/or a second fill element.
