A pneumatic fender comprising

• hemispherical portions each having a bowl shape at both ends of a body portion having a cylindrical shape;
• the body portion and the respective hemispherical portions being configured by layering a plurality of reinforcing layers between an inner layer rubber and an outer layer rubber;
• a reinforcing layer of the plurality of reinforcing layers of the body portion is a cord layer formed by aligning a number of cords in parallel;
• the cords of the reinforcing layers layered adjacent to each other meeting and being disposed at a predetermined cord angle with respect to a longitudinal direction of the fender, and in a neutral state without expansion the cord angle being set to from 15° to 45°;
• wherein
• a predetermined range in the longitudinal direction of the fender in the reinforcing layers constituting each of the hemispherical portions near a boundary with the body portion is a cord layer formed by aligning a number of cords in parallel, and
• the cords of the reinforcing layers layered adjacent to each other meet and are disposed at a predetermined cord angle with respect to the longitudinal direction of the fender and in the neutral state the cord angle is set to from 15° to 45°.
