An absorbent article may have a Product Hip-to-Side Silhouette from 0.5 to about 1.8 and a Relaxed Product Side Length that is greater than about 65% of the Relaxed Product Length. An array of absorbent articles may have an Array Average Product Hip-to-Side Silhouette from about 0.5 to about 1.8.

An absorbent article may have a Product Length-to-Side Silhouette from about 1.8 to about 6. An array of absorbent articles may have an Array Average Product Length-to-Side Silhouette from about 1.8 to about 6.

The present disclosure relates to methods for bonding first and second substrates together with tackifier free adhesives. The tackifier free adhesive may be applied to the second substrate to define an adherence zone. The first substrate is positioned on the adherence zone of the second substrate to define a first region and a second region of the adherence zone. In the first region, the tackifier free adhesive is positioned between the first substrate and the second substrate. In the second region, the tackifier free adhesive may or may not be positioned between the first substrate and the second substrate, and may not bond the first substrate with the second substrate. Thus, tackifier free adhesive may be applied to the second substrate to create an adherence zone defining a relatively large area that permits the placement of the first substrate thereon without the need to completely cover the adherence zone.

An absorbent article may have a Product Hip-to-Side Silhouette from about 2.3 to about 6, and a Product Waist-to-Side Silhouette from about 2.3 to about 6. An array of absorbent articles may have an Array Average Product Hip-to-Side Silhouette from about 2.3 to about 6, and an Array Average Product Waist-to-Side Silhouette from about 2.3 to about 6.

A method for producing a chassis web which may be further converted into a disposable pant article and a pant article is disclosed. The method includes feeding a continuous base web in a machine direction; attaching a continuous elastic waistband component to the base web in an attachment area; severing the base web and the attached elastic waistband component by cutting; shifting positions of the first panel web and the second panel web in a cross machine direction, thereby bringing the first and the second panel webs into an arrangement with first and second cut edges facing away from each other in the cross machine direction; directly or indirectly connecting the first side edge of the first panel web with the second side edge of the second panel web thereby forming a coherent chassis web.

Embodiments relate to an absorbent pant that includes longitudinally opposing first and second waist regions and a crotch region between the first and second waist regions. Longitudinally opposing first and second waist panels are disposed in the first and second waist regions and connect to form a waist opening and a pair of leg apertures. A fastening zone area is disposed on at least one surface of the absorbent pant. In a wrapped configuration, at least one of the waist panels is configured to be laterally folded inward to engage the fastening zone area such that at least one of the leg apertures is at least partially sealed.

An absorbent article including a front waist portion, a back waist portion, and a crotch portion. An end portion of the back waist portion on an other side in the lateral direction is joined by a second joining portion to a fastening member, and the fastening member has a fastening portion being capable of being fastened to the front waist portion when putting on the absorbent article. While the front waist portion and the back waist portion are being stretched in the lateral direction, the lateral distance of the front waist portion from the lateral center of the absorbent main body to a lateral end of the front waist portion on the other side is smaller than the lateral distance of the back waist portion from the lateral center of absorbent main body to a lateral end of the back waist portion on the other side.

Disclosed is a wearable article continuous in a longitudinal direction and a transverse direction comprising a center chassis and a ring-like elastic belt comprising a front belt and a back belt; the front and back belt each formed by a laminate comprising a plurality of elastic bodies running in the transverse direction, an inner sheet, an outer sheet, and an outer sheet fold over; wherein at least one of the front belt and the back belt has: a) the longitudinal edge of the center chassis being distal than, preferably at least about 10 mm distal than, the outer sheet fold over proximal edge; b) in the left and right side panels: b-1) at least one elastic body, preferably at least two elastic bodies, disposed between the outer sheet and the outer sheet fold over in regions where the inner sheet does not overlap; b-2) one to no more than about 8 elastic bodies disposed between the outer sheet and inner sheet in regions where the outer sheet fold over overlaps in the thickness direction, and b-3) the remaining elastic bodies disposed between the outer sheet and the inner sheet in regions where the outer sheet fold over does not overlap in the thickness direction, wherein any elastic body disposed between the outer sheet and the inner sheet is disposed at least about 5 mm away from the inner sheet distal edge.

In a trunks-type disposable diaper in which a front around-leg elastic member and a back around-leg elastic member are attached on both sides in a width direction of an intermediate region in a region between an edge of one leg opening and an edge of the other leg opening in a pattern in which at least one front around-leg elastic member and at least one back around-leg elastic member cross each other, the above-described problem is solved by providing an inner member bonded portion that is a region bonding an outer member and an inner member only further to the center side in the width direction than a crossing position between the front around-leg elastic member and the back around-leg elastic member on both sides in the width direction in the intermediate region.

An absorbent article including an absorbent core sandwiched between a liquid-permeable topsheet and a liquid-impermeable backsheet, the article defining a front portion, a back portion and a crotch portion, wherein the absorbent core includes an absorbent component enclosed by a core cover including an upper side and a lower side, and a sealing arrangement for joining the upper and lower core cover sides and including two channel sealings, in the crotch portion, defining a first channel sealing width and a second channel sealing width, and also including two side seams along the sides of the core, wherein a centre segment having a first width is defined in the absorbent component between the channel sealings and two side segments each having a second width are defined in the absorbent component outside each channel sealing.
