A method of manufacturing an article of apparel having dynamic vent-slits is provided. The method includes providing a fabric (102) having a first surface (104) and a second surface (106), forming a plurality of slits (136, 138) in a repeating fashion on the fabric, wherein a spacing (131) between two adjacent slits (136) in linear alignment is less than a length of a slit (138) in non-linear alignment with the two adjacent slits and that the slit in non-linear alignment is offset from the two adjacent slits such that the slit in non-linear alignment overlies the spacing between the two adjacent slits in linear alignment, and the slit in non-linear alignment is parallel to the two adjacent slits in linear alignment. The method further includes forming the fabric into at least part of the article of apparel. The slits may be positioned in one or more groupings, or aligned in different directions to open in response to different directions of stretch or movement, to provide dynamic ventilation. |
