PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a shock absorber enabling space saving. SOLUTION: A sub damping force generation mechanism 30 provided in the hydraulic shock absorber includes a housing 34 forming a pressure chamber 40, a shutter member 45 partitioning the interior of the housing 34 into a first pressure chamber 41 communicating with an upper cylinder chamber 2A and forming part of a bypass passage 29 and a second pressure chamber 42 communicating with a lower cylinder chamber 2B, and slidably provided in the housing 34 to control the passage area of the bypass passage 29, and first and second loading members 52a and 52b provided on opposite sides of the shutter member 45 to slidingly elastically support the shutter member 45. At least either of the loading members 52a and 52b is space-savingly a conical spring adapted to separate from the housing 34 or shutter member 45 when the shutter member 45 is slid.
