The invention provides a cage for a bearing. The invention further provides the bearing and a method of producing the cage. The cage includes a plurality of pockets at least partially surrounding the rolling elements. The cage further comprises a first material and a second material. The first material is a first printed material printed via an additive manufacturing process that has different properties compared to the second material.
