A pneumatic tire, having a plurality of sipes formed in land portions of a tread thereof so as to each extend in the tire width direction, characterized in that: in a cross section of the land portion orthogonal to the sipe extending direction, provided that an imaginary sipe main line links two ends in the tire radial direction of each sipe, at least two of the sipes are “inclined sipes” each having the sipe main line inclined with respect to the tire radial direction; each inclined sipe has inner bent portions each protruding with respect to the sipe main line with peaks positioned deeper than 20% of the sipe depth; and the sipe main line(s) of at least one of the inclined sipes are inclined in a direction opposite, with respect to the tire radial direction, to the sipe main line of any of the other inclined sipes.
