A side air bag expands near a window at a time of collision of a vehicle to restrain an occupant from moving in a lateral direction. The air bag has an expansion durationdelete-start id="DEL-S-00001" date="20070515" ?protracteddelete-end id="DEL-S-00001" ?insert-start id="INS-S-00001" date="20070515" ?which is extendedinsert-end id="INS-S-00001" ?to constrain the occupant during overturning of the vehicle. Stowability for stowing the air bag in a folded state in a side structure of the vehicle, such as a pillar and a roof side rail portion, is enhanced in that two woven fabrics are connected along an outer peripheral portioninsert-start id="INS-S-00002" date="20070515" ?,insert-end id="INS-S-00002" ?to form a bag portioninsert-start id="INS-S-00003" date="20070515" ?, byinsert-end id="INS-S-00003" ?a textile structure woven using a common yarndelete-start id="DEL-S-00002" date="20070515" ?include indelete-end id="DEL-S-00002" ?insert-start id="INS-S-00004" date="20070515" ?ofinsert-end id="INS-S-00004" ?bothdelete-start id="DEL-S-00003" date="20070515" ?fabricsdelete-end id="DEL-S-00003" ?insert-start id="INS-S-00005" date="20070515" ?fabric sheets forming opposing sides of the air baginsert-end id="INS-S-00005" ?.

A mounting portion for mounting the air bag in the side structure, such as a pillar or a roof side rail, is integrally formed by extending the woven fabrics or the common-yarn textile structure portion outward from the outer peripheral connection portion, thereby improving stowability.
