Abstract
An elastic crawler includes an elastic crawler body and plural cord layers. The elastic crawler body is shaped into an endless loop. The plural cord layers are formed by plural cords covered by the elastic body, and the plural cord layers are embedded in the elastic crawler body. Respective cords included in mutually adjacent cord layers are disposed so as to intersect each other when viewed along a thickness direction of the elastic crawler body, and in at least one pair of adjacent cord layers inside at least a partial region of the elastic crawler body, a total area of portions where the respective cords included in each layer of the adjacent cord layers overlap with each other, is smaller than a total area of portions where respective regions of each layer of the adjacent cord layers in which none of the cords are disposed overlap with each other.
