Creating meaningful interactions using smart textiles involves both a comprehensive understanding of relevant materials and technologies (M&T) and how users engage with this type of interface. Despite its relevance to design research, user experience (UX) evaluation remains limited within the smart textile field. This research aims to systematize information regarding the main M&T used in recent smart textile design research and the evaluation methods (EMs) employed to assess the UX. For this purpose, a systematic literature review was conducted in the Scopus database. The search covered the period from 2018 to 2025 and yielded a total of 232 results. Of these, 56 full papers in English, available on the internet, and focusing on experimental research on smart textile interaction and experience evaluation were included. This review identifies the prevalent use of electronic components and conductive materials, emphasizing the importance of selecting materials that enable sensing, actuation, communication, and processing capabilities. UX evaluation focused on the pragmatic dimension, whereas the combination with the hedonic dimension was generally regarded as future work. The study led to the proposal of four key topics to support the creation of meaningful interactions and highlights the need for further research on evaluating users’ emotional experiences with smart textiles.
