Noise occurring when an upper rail is slid on a lower rail with retainers in contact with either or both of the rails is suppressed. A vehicle seat slide device (10) has the lower rail (11), the upper rail (12), the retainers (13) disposed between both rails (11, 12), and rolling elements (steel balls) rollably supported by the retainers (13) and rolling while being in contact with both rails (11, 12). Each retainer (13) has a retainer body (13d) and projections (13a, 13b, 13c) projecting from the retainer body (13d). The projections (13a, 13b, 13c) are formed of a resin material integrally with the retainer body (13d). Because of the projections (13a, 13b, 13c) formed on the retainer (13), when the retainers (13) make contact with both rails (11, 12), the projections (13a, 13b, 13c) invariably make contact with both rails (11, 12).
