This absorbent article is provided with a top surface sheet (12) comprising a composite sheet. In the composite sheet (10), protruding portions (4) in which a first sheet (1) protrudes in a direction away from a second sheet (2) toward the skin of a wearer are formed in a site other than a joint portion (3). A plurality of each of a first inclined joint portion row (S1) and a second inclined joint portion row (S2) are formed, and elongated joint portions (31) having an elongated shape in a longitudinal direction are formed at intersecting portions thereof. Laterally long protruding portions (41) having an elongated shape in a width direction (Y) are formed dispersed in the longitudinal direction (X) and the width direction (Y). The laterally long protruding portions (41) are formed surrounded by two first inclined joint portion rows (S1) and two second inclined joint portion rows (S2); and the elongated joint portions (31) are formed between the laterally long protruding portions (41) adjacent to one another in the width direction (Y).本發明之吸收性物品具備由複合片材構成之正面片材(12),複合片材(10)係第1片材(1)於接合部(3)以外之部位向遠離第2片材(2)之方向突出而形成朝向穿著者之肌膚側突出之凸部(4),第1傾斜接合部行(S1)及第2傾斜接合部行(S2)分別形成有複數行,於其等之交叉部,形成有於長度方向上較長之形狀之長接合部(31),於寬度方向(Y)上較長之形狀之橫長凸部(41)形成為於長度方向(X)及寬度方向(Y)上分散之狀態,橫長凸部(41)形成為被2個第1傾斜接合部行(S1)及2個第2傾斜接合部行(S2)包圍之狀態,且於在寬度方向(Y)上相鄰之橫長凸部(41)間,形成有上述長接合部(31)。
