Electric heating/warming composite fabric articles have at least a fabric
layer having inner and outer surfaces, and an electric heating/warming
element, formed, e.g., of die cut, metallized textile or plastic sheeting
or metal foil, affixed at the inner surface of the fabric layer and
adapted to generate heating/warming when connected to a power source. A
barrier layer may be positioned, for example, adjacent to the inner
surface of the fabric layer; e.g., with the electric heating/warming
element formed thereupon, including to protect the electric circuit, e.g.
against abrasion.
