To accommodate the rapid development of wearable electronics, energy storage devices urgently need to be modified in their structure, battery performance and safety. In article number 1700302 , Huijuan Lin, Wei Huang and co‐workers introduce several fiber and fabric lithium ion batteries with high energy density and excellent flexibility. These batteries are often composed of parallel, twisted and cable architectures which can be reversibly deformed. Through mature knitting technology, one‐dimensional fiber or fabric batteries can be woven into two‐dimensional textiles, allowing for a variety of promising applications.
