Provided are modified polytetrafluoroethylene particles having excellent moldability and processability. The modified polytetrafluoroethylene particles each have a core-shell structure that includes a particle core and a particle shell, the particle core having repeating units of tetrafluoroethylene and a comonomer (a), the particle shell having repeating units of tetrafluoroethylene and a comonomer (b), the comonomer (a) being a (perfluoroalkyl)ethylene represented by the following formula (I): CH2═CH—Rf  (I) wherein Rf represents a C1 to C10 perfluoroalkyl group, the comonomer (b) being at least one monomer selected from the group consisting of 1,1,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propylene and 1,2,3,3,3-pentafluoro-1-propylene.
