An objective of the present disclosure is to provide a front pillar outer that is inexpensive, lightweight and strong. In an area in which a first door-side flange part and a second door-side flange part overlap with each other, a first plate part that is connected to a side edge of the first door-side flange part is folded so that a second door-side flange part is sandwiched between the first door-side flange part and the folded first plate part. In an area in which a first glass-face-side flange part and a second glass-face-side flange part overlap with each other, a second plate part that is connected to a side edge of the first glass-face-side flange part is folded so that the second glass-face-side flange part is sandwiched between the first glass-face-side flange part and the folded second plate part.
