ABSTRACT:
A weather strip is provided to be attached along a door opening of a vehicle body. The weather strip has a main portion to come into pressure contact with a peripheral edge of a door frame or a door glass when a door is closed and an end portion connected to an end of the main portion, which is to be partially pressed by an end portion of a door weather strip when the door is closed. The end portion has a thickness which gradually decreases towards a lower end thereof. The lower end of one portion of the end portion, which is to be pressed by the end portion of the door weather strip is thinner than that of the other portion of the end portion like the edge of a blade. When the door is closed, the thinner lower end of the end portion is pressed by the end portion of the door weather strip. At this time, no space remains between the vehicle body and the door weather strip thereby maintaining desirable sealing performance.
