The front region and the back region may extend laterally outward beyond side edges of the chassis. The front region and the back region may abut to form a first seam and a second seam. At least one of the front region and the back region may include an elastic member. A first outer nonwoven layer of the front region and a second outer nonwoven layer of the back region may be folded to form an upper edge in the front and back regions such that a distal end of each of the first and second outer nonwoven layer may be disposed between the upper edge and the front and back end edges of the absorbent core, respectively.

The rising gather of a disposable diaper includes: a main unit portion having a first portion extending from both sides of an inner member toward the center in the width direction and a second portion extending outward in the width direction. Front and back fallen portions are formed by fixing front and back end portions in the main unit portion to the inner member. The front and back fallen portions have a protruding portion in which the second portion protrudes 5 to 40 mm outward in the width direction than a side edge of the first portion. The protruding portion of the front fallen portion has a protruding fixing portion fixed to the front outer member overlapping with a back surface side thereof. The protruding portion of the back fallen portion has a protruding fixing portion fixed to the back outer member overlapping with a back surface side thereof.

Disclosed is a wearable article continuous in a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction comprising an elastic belt region, a crotch region, a waist opening and two leg openings; wherein the elastic belt region is a laminate comprising an inner sheet made of nonwoven fiber, and an outer sheet made of nonwoven fiber, and a plurality of elastic bodies configured to stretch the elastic belt region in the transverse direction, wherein the article has a Compression Work index of at least about 70 gfcm and a Stretch Circumference Force of less than about 6.5N according to the measurements herein.

Leakproof period panties for wear at home and during sleep include an outer layer. A leakproof structural layer is sewn on the inner side of the outer layer at the position of the crotch. The leakproof structural layer includes a lining layer. The top edge of the lining layer is sewn into the outer layer. A leakproof layer is sewn on the outer surface of the lining layer. An absorption layer is sewn on the bottom of the leakproof layer at the position of the crotch.
