The ear pad according to the present invention has a number of gathered
sound-insulating walls (12) monolithically provided on an outer periphery
of a basic body (11) made of an elastic material such as rubber, for
instance, a silicon rubber or soft synthetic resins, for instance,
polypropylene in a ring form with a prescribed space in the axial
direction and made of the same material as that for the basic body. With
this feature, the ear pad according to the present invention can provide
softness and adaptability to be set in an auditory means without
stimulating sensitive portions thereof.
