The automobile door sash structure includes a mall assembly body including a mall and a run channel which are assembled into a single unit. The run channel includes: an inner wall part which forms the inner wall of a rail part in collaboration with a window frame main body; and a bottom part which forms a bottom portion of the rail part in collaboration with the window frame main body. A total dimension of a dimension of the inner wall part in a frame inside-outside direction and a dimension of the bottom part in a vehicle inside-outside direction is set longer than a dimension of the window frame main body in the frame inside-outside direction.
