An object of the present invention is to improve the absorption performance while improving the feel of a surface sheet. In an absorbent article, a top sheet (2) includes a first fiber layer (2a) containing water-retaining fibers, and a second fiber containing hydrophobic fibers and water-retaining fibers adjacent to the non-skin side of the first fiber layer. And a fiber layer 2b. The skin side surface of the first fiber layer constitutes the skin side surface of the top sheet. The ratio of the water retention fiber in the fibers constituting the first fiber layer is larger than the ratio of the water retention fiber in the fibers constituting the second fiber layer. The average fiber length of the water retention fibers of the second fiber layer is shorter than the average fiber length of the water retention fibers of the first fiber layer. [Selection] Figure 2【課題】表面シートの肌触りを良好にしつつ、吸収性能を向上させることを可能とする。【解決手段】吸収性物品において、表面シート２は、保水性繊維を含む第１繊維層２ａと、第１繊維層の非肌側に隣接し、疎水性繊維と保水性繊維とを含む第２繊維層２ｂと、を備える。第１繊維層の肌側の表面は、表面シートの肌側の表面を構成する。第１繊維層を構成する繊維のうちの保水性繊維の割合は、第２繊維層を構成する繊維のうちの保水性繊維の割合よりも多い。第２繊維層の保水性繊維の平均繊維長は、第１繊維層の保水性繊維の平均繊維長よりも短い。【選択図】図２
