An OPW airbag having two opposing fabric layers made of warp and weft threads with at least one spacer that delimits the spacing of a chamber delimited by the fabric layers in the inflated state of the airbag. The spacer is formed by several of the warp and/or weft threads, so-called tethering threads, which, relative to the inflated state, extend from each layer in the direction of the opposing layer and are connected to warp and/or weft threads of the opposing layer. When warp tethering threads enter the opposing fabric layer, they each initially link with n weft threads and then float over at least n+1 weft threads in the interior of the chamber. When weft tethering threads enter the opposing fabric layer, they initially link with n warp threads and then float over at least n+1 warp threads in the interior of the chamber.
