10 Supplementary method S1. Textile Temperature Distribution In order to qualitatively identify the in plane thermal dissipation ability for various fabrics, a Laser-IR Camera system were built. As shown in figure S7, the temperature distribution of fabrics was characterized and recorded. A Coherent Highlight FAP 100 laser source with a wavelength of 810 nm was used to provide constant power input to the fabrics as point heat source (spot diameter is around 1 mm) at one side of the fabrics. The heat sink was attached to the other side of fabrics. The temperature distribution of the fabrics was captured using a FLIR Merlin MID IR camera with sensor resolution of 320 x 256 pixels, which detects the IR radiation from um. The in-situ temperature distribution was recorded by ThermaCAM Research software. To ensure accurate temperature readings from IR camera, a calibrated surface emissivity is required, thus a thin layer of graphite coating was applied to each fabric prior to test. As in-plane thermal conductivity varies from fabric to fabric, the maximum local temperature of fabrics will also be different. For a high thermal conductivity fabric, the input power from laser is easily dissipated to the heat sink, which yields lower maximum local temperature at the hot spot. On the contrary, if the fabric suffers from local thermal conductivity, the insufficient heat dissipation from heat source to heat sink will cause heat accumulation around the hot spot, showing a higher maximum local temperature on fabric.

11 Supplementary method S2. Thermal Conductivity Measurement The thermal conductivity was characterized by a system consisting of a laser heat source, two calibrated aluminum blocks, a metal block heat sink and an Infrared Camera. The fabric samples were sandwiched between top and bottom aluminum blocks, as in the above schematic. A Coherent Highlight FAP-1000 (820 nm) laser provided energy input to the system as heat source, and heat sink was used to dissipate heat from the system. The steady state temperature distribution of the fabric sample was captured and recorded by a FLIR Merlin MID Infrared (IR) camera with a resolution of 320 x 256 pixels. Due to the coexistence of multiple heat transfer paths, such as conduction, convection and radiation transfer from heat source to heat sink, a finite element model was built in ANSYS to calculate the thermal conductivity value of fabric. Prior to fabric thermal conductivity measurement, a calibration test was performed using standard material to estimate effective convection and radiation heat transfer coefficient. Then the finite element model was updated with effective convection and radiation heat transfer coefficient for actual fabric thermal conductivity measurement. The thermal conductivity of fabric in ANSYS was tuned until a good temperature gradient was achieved between experimental and numerical simulation results. The thermal conductivities of our samples were all measured under the condition of T = 25 o C and RH = 30-40%. 11
