Abstract

The present invention relates to a porous layer structure containing a base material and a polyurethane porous layer formed on the base material, wherein a moisture permeability A of the porous layer structure measured by JIS L1099 A-1 (calcium chloride method) is 2000 to 10000 g/(m 2 ·24 h), a moisture permeability loss rate obtained by a predetermined formula from a moisture permeability B of the base material alone measured by JIS L1099 A-1 (calcium chloride method) and the moisture permeability A is 75% or less, and a peel strength at a bonding surface between the base material and the polyurethane porous layer is 0.7 kgf/inch or more.
