This absorbent article (1) has a stretch region. The stretch region has a wicking sheet (KS) on a skin contacting surface side thereof. The wicking sheet (KS) includes a hydrophobic layer (4) that is hydrophobic and is formed of a hydrophobic fiber, and a hydrophilic layer (5) that is hydrophilic and is formed of a hydrophilic fiber, the hydrophobic layer (4) forming the skin contacting surface, and the hydrophilic layer (5) being arranged adjacent to a skin non-contacting surface of the hydrophobic layer (4). The wicking sheet (KS) has a fusion bonded portion (8) that secures the hydrophobic layer (4) and the hydrophilic layer (5). The wicking sheet (KS) is a sheet in which the amount of liquid residue is 10 mg or less when 1 [mu]L * 49 drops of liquid are placed in an area of 5 cm * 5 cm on the skin contacting surface thereof and absorbed in 60 seconds. The wicking sheet (KS) is a sheet in which 50 [mu]L * 1 drop of liquid placed on the skin contacting surface thereof evaporates in 15 minutes or less.本發明之吸收性物品(1)具備伸縮區域。伸縮區域係於其肌膚抵接面側具有吸汗速乾片材(KS)。吸汗速乾片材(KS)包含:疏水性之疏水層(4),其包括形成肌膚抵接面之疏水性之纖維;及親水性之親水層(5),其包括與疏水層(4)之非肌膚抵接面鄰接配置之親水性之纖維;且具有將疏水層(4)及親水層(5)固定之熔合接合部(8)。吸汗速乾片材(KS)係於配置於其肌膚抵接面之其肌膚抵接面之5 cm×5 cm之範圍內對1 μL×49滴之液體吸收60秒時之液體殘留量為10 mg以下之片材。吸汗速乾片材(KS)係配置於其肌膚抵接面之50 μL×1滴之液體於15分鐘以內蒸發之片材。
