A textile product, and methods of using or manufacturing the same, has an electrical skin contact element completely or partially arranged on the inside of the product and at least one extensible conductive textile element mounted on the outside of the product in electrical communication with the skin contact element. In one embodiment, the skin contact element comprises an extensible electrode having an extensible plastic material comprising conductive particles or graphene and is adhered to or printed on the textile product in a region surrounding an opening in the textile product, and is connected to the conductive element adjacent the opening. In another embodiment, the textile product has a conductive region comprising an embedded conductive polymer material, the conductive element is connected to the conductive polymer material on the outside of the conductive region, and the electrical skin contact element completely or partially penetrates the fabric of the textile product.
