The air bag has layers (20, 22) defining between them an inflation volume into which gas is directed to inflate the air bag. The air bag when in the inflated and unfolded condition has upper and lower sections (30, 40). The air bag when in the deflated and folded condition has a lower end portion (60) of the air bag disposed between the layers at a location adjacent an upper end portion (50) of the air bag. The lower section of the air bag is turned inside out and located inside the upper section of the air bag.
