Abstract: An ear pad is made of a deformable material and mounted on an earphone, at least a tip of which is insertable into an ear. The ear pad comprises a cylindrical body portion and an elastically deformable portion. The cylindrical body portion has a sound guide hole formed therein, being adapted to cause a sound to impinge on the ear. The deformable portion is connected to a tip of the body portion and spreads from the tip toward a rear end of the body portion, and includes a plurality of slit-shaped openings radially extending therefrom. The body portion includes grooves axially extending therefrom, corresponding to the openings in the outer peripheral surface of the body portion. Each opening overlaps with a corresponding groove in cases where the elastically deformable portion is deformed and pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the body portion.
