A weather strip is mounted at the peripheral part of a door opening of a
door for an automobile. The weather strip includes a sectionally nearly
U-shaped trim part and a hollow seal part. A design lip is extended out
from the trim part. A decoration layer of a non-woven fabric is formed on
the design surface of the weather strip such as the outer surface of the
design lip through a resin bonding layer of polyethylene (PE). The
non-woven fabric constituting the decoration layer contains fibers
subjected to "crimping processing" and has predetermined elasticity
(stretch of 5 mm or more when load of 20 N is applied).
