Abstract

A nonwoven fabric comprising at least 15 percent conjugate fibers having a low melting point component and method of making the same, said fabric comprising high loft regions immediately adjacent densified regions produced by compressing the web at a temperature below the softening point of the low melting point component of the conjugate fiber and at a temperature and pressure sufficient to deform and compact the conjugate fibers and compact the fibers of the web in only the densified regions.
