A clothing for a machine producing and/or processing a fibrous web extending in longitudinal and widthwise directions, includes a basic structure providing dimensional stability in longitudinal and/or widthwise directions. The structure includes a band-shaped, one-piece grid having widthwise-adjacent first material strands and polymer material having lengths in a longitudinal direction, and adjacent second interconnected material strands and/or droplets and polymer material, contacting the first strands at contact points forming the grid. The strands and/or droplets are deposited by extrusion of the polymer materials in liquid or pasty state onto a depositing surface forming a portion or all of the grid in liquid or pasty state, the polymer materials are solidified, converting the portion or the grid from liquid or pasty to solidified, stable, self-supporting state producing bonding at the contact points, and removing the portion or the grid from the surface.

There is provided a papermaking felt including: a base fabric layer including at least two layers of a first base fabric layer and a second base fabric layer, each of which is formed by spirally winding a band-shaped body. The first base fabric layer and the second base fabric layer are laminated together such that a direction of spiral winding of the first base fabric layer and a direction of spiral winding of the second base fabric layer are different; A magnitude of a displacement with respect to a cross-machine direction between two intersection points formed by a straight line that passes through intersection points of the side edges of the respective band-shaped bodies of the first base fabric layer and the second base fabric layer and has a minimum angle to the cross-machine direction and both ends of the papermaking felt is 2 cm or more.

There is provided a papermaking felt comprising a base fabric layer and at least one batt layer integrated with the base fabric layer, wherein the base fabric comprises at least one layer formed by spirally winding a band-shaped body having a width smaller than a width of the papermaking felt and having a plurality of ground warp yarns, a plurality of ground weft yarns, a first side edge, and a second side edge in such a manner that the first side edge and the second side edge are adjacent and thereby joining the side edges together; and a plurality of marks is arranged at regular intervals in a warp direction of the band-shaped body.
