Abstract
A side protecting air bag comprising a body and an extension portion that are formed together into a bag shape. The body includes a mounting portion on the peripheral edge for mounting the air bag and is shaped to extend generally at a right angle from the mounting portion. The extension is formed so as to merge into the body along the mounting portion. When the air bag is folded, the extension is inserted into the body so that the body accommodating the extension is folded together with the extension onto the mounting portion.
