1. A method of forming an article of apparel, the method comprising:
obtaining a thermal regulation composition comprising a plurality of system reactive components, wherein the system reactive components comprise a binder, a water-activated cooling agent, a reversible state latent heat agent, and a mineral heat dissipation agent, the water-activated cooling agent is present in an amount from 15 wt % to 35 wt % of the system reactive components, the reversible state latent heat agent is present in an amount from 25 wt % to 45 wt % of the system reactive components, and the mineral heat dissipation agent is present in an amount from 25 wt % to 45 wt % of the system reactive components;
printing the thermal regulation composition to a surface of a textile by pressing the thermal regulation composition against the textile surface such that the binder adheres the water-activated cooling agent, the reversible state latent heat agent, and the mineral heat dissipation agent to the surface of the textile, thereby forming a thermal regulation membrane; and
incorporating the textile into an article of apparel.
