A steering apparatus, comprising:

• a fixed bracket;
• a movable bracket comprising a movable side portion in which holes for telescopic adjustment are formed at both sides in a width direction;
• a sliding shaft support member that comprises a shaft support hole formed therein and can slide inside the holes for telescopic adjustment;
• and
• a tightening tool that links the fixed bracket and the movable bracket and is supported by the sliding shaft support member,
• wherein the holes for telescopic adjustment have both end edges in an up-down direction as guide edges and have both ends in a front-rear direction as stop end edges,
• wherein the sliding shaft support member comprises a main sliding unit comprising an inelastic resin and buffer portions comprising one of a rubber and a resin,
• wherein recesses are formed at both sides in the front-rear direction and close to a center in the up-down direction in the main sliding unit,
• wherein the buffer portions comprise abutment pieces formed along an entire surface at both ends in the front-rear direction of the main sliding unit and insertion pieces to be inserted into the recesses,
• wherein upper and lower surfaces of the main sliding unit are in a state of sliding contact with the guide edges of the hole for telescopic adjustment, and
• wherein the buffer portions can abut only on the two stop end edges and do not come into contact with the two guide edges.
