Abstract: An absorbent article is provided, which is resistant to deformation and can maintain the breathability even under the force applied by various body movements, such as load of sitting. An absorbent article of the present invention includes a liquid permeable top surface sheet, a liquid impermeable back surface sheet, and an absorber disposed between the top surface sheet and the back surface sheet. Grooves extend on the top surface sheet side, and in each of the grooves, a plurality of recess portions formed by integrally joining the top surface sheet and the absorber are arranged. Each of the recess portions has a sidewall and a bottom.
