It is a subject to suitably decrease the rigidity of blocks, to generate suitable collapsing of the blocks, to sufficiently exhibit edge effects of sipes, and to improve braking performances and the like in the medium term of wear and thereafter; and for solving this subject, in a pneumatic tire formed with blocks on its tread and engraved with sipes 11 on the blocks, the sipes 11 are classified into a surface portion 12 , an intermediate portion 13 , and a bottom portion 14 in a depth direction from a tread surface 17 up to sipes bottom 18 , wherein the surface portion 12 and the bottom portion 14 open in a wave-shaped form in which crest portions 21 and trough portions 22 of the wave-shaped form extend in directions vertical to the tread, while the intermediate portion 13 opens in a wave-shaped manner in which the crest portions 21 and trough portions 22 of the wave-shaped form extend in a zigzag-like manner.
