Reinforced composite articles that typically provide at least one polymer-reinforced phase, typically provided as an intermediate product form that can include a unitary structure (eg, geophysical fiber material), multi-layer elongate members, or combinations thereof, and Its manufacturing method. Intermediate product features can be manufactured and processed to form composite articles, for example. Processing of an intermediate shape that includes an optional consolidation step (eg, by an overmolding process or by other methods) generally results in a relatively high form retention in an article having a polymeric reinforcement and a relatively smooth surface.
