  • Patent number: 10005255
    Abstract: The invention aims at providing a light long fiber nonwoven fabric having a sufficient strength, on which irregularly uneven wrinkles (or crimps) having a large difference in height (bulkiness). It also aims at providing a laminate of fabrics including the long fiber nonwoven fabric. The long fiber nonwoven fabric is a long fiber nonwoven fabric formed from a long fiber, on which irregularly uneven wrinkles having a large difference in height are formed. The laminate of fabrics includes the long fiber nonwoven fabric (the inner layer) and a first fabric (a first outer layer) laminated on one side of the long fiber nonwoven fabric, wherein a first space is formed between the long fiber nonwoven fabric (the inner layer) and the first fabric (first outer layer).
