According to an absorptive article (disposable diaper) 10 of the present invention, an absorber (absorptive structure) 12 is provided with a first region 55 disposed on an internal surface sheet 41 side and having a higher content ratio of the superabsorptive polymer than a content ratio of the hydrophilic fiber, a second region 56 disposed on an external surface sheet 42 side and having a lower content ratio of the superabsorptive polymer than the content ratio of the superabsorptive polymer in the first region and a higher content ratio of the hydrophilic fiber than the content ratio of the hydrophilic fiber in the first region, and a space that penetrates from the external surface sheet 42 side of the second region 56 to the first region 55, and that can be entered by the superabsorptive polymer that is swollen by absorbing a body fluid in the first region 55.
