A sliding bearing, e.g. journal bearing, comprises at least two bearing elements (1,2) the bearing surfaces of which are slidably supported with respect to each other. At least one of said surfaces being provided with a first type of cavities (8) which may comprise a lubricating substance, said first type of cavities (8) being defined by a specific range of geometric properties. Furthermore, at least one surface is provided with at least a second type of cavities (9) which may comprise a lubricating substance, said second type of cavities (9) being defined by geometric properties which are different from the geometric properties of the first type of cavities.
