This invention relates to a polymer composition containing at least one polymer and at least one agent, formed bodies having such a polymer composition, the use of the formed bodies and polymer compositions, and corresponding threads, nonwoven materials, clothing articles, and medical aids.

Athletic garments having thermogenic, non-slip interior lining at selected locations to provide structural support, provide a thermogenic effect to the user, and to render the garment non-slipping. The garments may be leggings, shirts, shorts, bras or other garments and may be manufactured of nylon with lycra or other materials, with the lining manufactured of silicone, rubber, latex or plastic.

A method of forming a plate for an article of footwear is disclosed. The method includes applying a first strand portion to a base layer including positioning adjacent segments of the first strand portion to form a first layer on the base layer. The adjacent segments of the first strand portion having a greater density across a width of the plate between a medial side and a lateral side at a forefoot region of the plate than at a midfoot region of the plate and at a heel region of the plate. The method also includes applying at least one of heat and pressure to the first strand portion and to the base layer to conform the first strand portion and the base layer to a predetermined shape.
