Abstract: The application relates to a textile composite article comprising at least one textile made of fibers/filaments, especially in the form of yarns, having a partially internal discontinuous pattern of an impregnating material which penetrates at least partially a cross section of said first textile leading to impregnated areas and non-impregnated areas in accordance with the discontinuous pattern. The non-impregnated areas are air permeable and may comprise a functional coating. Such a treated textile composite is air-permeable and water vapor permeable and has reduced water absorption and re-dry time. In one embodiment the textile composite article shows an additional enhanced flame protection.
