Abstract
A glass run that is excellent in appearance quality and durability, and exhibits improved sealing properties is proposed. The glass run for attachment to vertical sides of the door frame has a bottom wall for attachment to a door frame or a door molding, and an outer seal lip extending from an exterior side edge of the bottom wall. The outer seal lip has a base part extending towards a door glass, and a main part extending from the base part while curving inwardly of the base part. When the outer seal lip is deformed and bent with a side edge of the door glass, a tip end part of the outer seal lip is located inwardly of a surface of the bottom wall or the outer side wall, which faces a side edge of the door glass, and the base part is formed to have a rigidity lower than that of the main part.
