1. A cushioning member, comprising: a multilayer material comprising a barrier layer, a polymeric material layer disposed adjacent to the barrier layer, and a stabilization layer disposed adjacent to and opposite the barrier layer;a plurality of pillars disposed in the multilayer material, each of the plurality of pillars comprising an upper surface and a sidewall extending downwardly from and undercutting the upper surface to define a radiused upper edge disposed between the upper surface and the sidewall;a plurality of spacer regions disposed between the plurality of pillars, each of the plurality of spacer regions comprising a spacer region width of about 0.002 inch. 2. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the thickness of at least two of the plurality of pillars is different. 3. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the shape of at least two of the plurality of pillars is different. 4. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the thickness and the shape of at least two of the plurality of pillars is different. 5. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the plurality of pillars have a thickness of less than about 3 inches, and the plurality of spacer regions have a thickness of about 0.002″. 6. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the plurality of pillars have a thickness of less than about 3 inches, and the plurality of spacer regions have a thickness of about 0.250″. 7. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer is selected from the group consisting of textiles, textile composites, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) materials, and combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing. 8. The cushioning member of claim 7, wherein the barrier layer is a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). 9. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer comprises an elongation of at least about 100 percent. 10. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer has a thickness of less than or equal to about 5 mil. 11. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer has a thickness of greater than or equal to about 5 mil. 12. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer comprises a moisture transmittable material. 13. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer comprises a phase changing material. 14. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the barrier layer comprises an active agent. 15. The cushioning member of claim 14, wherein the active agent is selected from the group consisting of an antimicrobial active agent, an antifungal agent, and combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing. 16. The cushioning member of claim 1, further comprising a fabric material layer disposed between the polymeric material layer and the stabilization layer. 17. The cushioning member of claim 16, wherein the fabric layer comprises knits, wovens, non-wovens, synthetics, non-synthetics, and combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing. 18. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein at least one of the barrier layer and the stabilization layer comprise a fabric material layer comprising an elongation of at least about 100 percent. 19. The cushioning member of claim 18, wherein the fabric layer comprises knits, wovens, non-wovens, synthetics, non-synthetics, and combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing. 20. The cushioning member of claim 18, wherein the fabric layer is fluid-permeable. 21. The cushioning member of claim 1, further comprising an adhesive disposed between the polymeric material layer and the stabilization layer. 22. The cushioning member of claim 21, wherein the adhesive is disposed on a support layer. 23. The cushioning member of claim 22, wherein the support layer is a TPE. 24. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the stabilization layer is removable from the cushioning material. 25. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the ratio of the pillar thickness to the pillar width is about 8:1. 26. The cushioning member of claim 1, wherein the sidewall extends perpendicularly downwardly from the upper surface. 27. A cushioning member, comprising: a multilayer material comprising a barrier layer, a polymeric material layer disposed adjacent to the barrier layer, and a stabilization layer disposed adjacent to and opposite the barrier layer;a plurality of pillars disposed in the multilayer material, each of the plurality of pillars comprising a thickness and a width, and an upper surface and a sidewall extending downwardly from and undercutting the upper surface;a plurality of spacer regions disposed between the plurality of pillars, each of the plurality of spacer regions comprising a spacer region thickness and a width of about 0.002 inch;wherein the ratio of the pillar thickness to the pillar width is between about 2:1 and about 8:1. 28. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the thickness of at least two of the plurality of pillars is different. 29. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the shape of at least two of the plurality of pillars is different. 30. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the thickness and the shape of at least two of the plurality of pillars is different. 31. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the plurality of pillars has a thickness of less than about 3 inches, and the thickness of the plurality of spacer regions is about 0.002″. 32. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the plurality of pillars has a thickness of less than about 3 inches, and the thickness of the plurality of spacer regions is about 0.250″. 33. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the barrier layer is selected from the group consisting of textiles, textile composites, thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) materials, and combinations comprising at least one of the foregoing. 34. The cushioning member of claim 33, wherein the barrier layer is a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU). 35. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the barrier layer comprises an elongation of at least about 100 percent. 36. The cushioning member of claim 27, wherein the barrier layer has a thickness of less than or equal to about 5 mil. 37.
