A fabric, in particular a press felt, is provided for use in a press section of a machine for producing a fiber web such as a paper, cardboard, or tissue web. The fabric is formed of multiple strips which are arranged adjacent one another and extend substantially parallel to one another in a machine direction. The strips together form a width of the fabric in the machine transverse direction. Each strip is designed as a double-layered sheet material. Strips arranged adjacently in respective pairs are connected by way of a connecting strip. A part of the width of each of the connecting strips extends in the machine transverse direction into the two adjacent strips. The strips are connected to the connecting strips.
