Abstract
A belt is provided in which no deviation of pattern is generated in the warp yarn and weft yarn despite its low weft yarn density and flexibility, provides stability in attaching various elements and fits to an object. The belt is woven with warp yarn and weft yarn, wherein said belt is sectioned to an element attaching region and a tape proper region in a width direction. In the tape proper region, a loop is formed with weft yarns running throughout substantially an entire width of the belt and that loop is caught with a loop formed by other weft yarns arranged in parallel.
