To provide a sliding member which can control a relationship between dynamic friction force and static friction force, a sliding member 1 constitutes a bearing having a cylindrical shape and its internal circumferential surface is a sliding layer 2 along a shaft. The sliding member 1 is provided a surface of the sliding layer 2 with uneven surface 6. The uneven surface 6 has the line-like projections 6a, vertexes of which are arranged in gridlike fashion, in the embodiment, to prevent an oil film from being formed and to make the dynamic friction force larger and keep the rate of change in the dynamic friction force in relation to the static friction force smaller. The sliding layer is configured so that a porous layer made of alloy material is formed on a surface of a metal substrate and the resin filled into the porous layer is sintered.
