The fabrication and characterization of highly flexible textiles are reported. These textiles can harvest thermal energy from temperature gradients in the desirable through‐thickness direction. The tiger yarns containing n‐ and p‐type segments are woven to provide textiles containing n–p junctions. A high power output of up to 8.6 W m −2 is obtained for a temperature difference of 200 °C.
