A formed laminate (20) is made by a method and apparatus (38) by relative movement of first and second contoured mold surfaces (44,46) toward each other to compress a flexible sheet (28) and a quick reacting foamable liquid mixture (50) that has substantially completed expansion but not yet substantially cured so as to form the flexible sheet and provide a collapsed foam layer (30) bonded to the sheet. The flexible sheet (28) is preferably porous cloth, vinyl or leather. The quick reacting type foamable liquid mixture (50) which expands in about 8 to 25 seconds and most preferably in about 10 to 15 seconds.
