Abstract

A paper product including a fibrous web manufactured in a paper making machine including a fabric is disclosed. The web has a first and an opposite second side. At least one of the first and second sides of the web has, in a pattern repeat, a number of longitudinal, machine direction oriented compressed areas with a first density of fibers and a number of machine direction oriented bulky areas with a second density of fibers lower than the first density. The compressed areas correspond to machine direction oriented warp knuckles of warp yarns floating over weft yarns, and adjacent compressed areas, corresponding to warp knuckles of directly adjacent warp yarns, overlap in the cross-machine direction forming a continuous compressed pattern angled to the machine and cross-machine directions. A first line connects the centers of first two directly adjacent compressed areas of the continuous compressed pattern at a first angle different from a second angle of a second line connecting the centers of second two directly adjacent compressed areas of the continuous compressed pattern so that a line connecting the centers of all compressed areas forming the continuous compressed pattern is non-straight.
