An airbag of a knee-protecting airbag device is mounted on a case together with an inflator with the aid of mounting means of the inflator. The airbag includes a vehicle body side panel, an occupant side panel, a mounting inflatable region which is located in a lower end region of the airbag as deployed and is secured to the case, and a knee-protecting region. The airbag further includes a tether which is joined to the occupant side panel in the mounting inflatable region of the airbag by the lower end inside the airbag for preventing a sagging movement of the vehicle body side panel in a region of the mounting inflatable region distant from the inflator in a left and right direction at airbag deployment.
