Disposable absorbent garments, comprising front and rear waist and a central absorbent assembly comprising a liquid-absorbent core, where at least one of the front and rear waist portions comprises: a composite of an elastic sheet material and a non-woven fabric layer, and a plurality of elastic strands. In some of the present garments, the elastic strands are positioned on both sides of the liquid-absorbent core, and each strand has a first end laterally offset from the liquid-absorbent core and extending outward toward a respective leg edge of the waist portion. In others of the present garments, the elastic strands are positioned between the absorbent core and the elastic sheet material, and each extends laterally a majority of the distance between first and second side edges.

Disposable absorbent garment having elastic sheet material and elastic strands

A disposable absorbent garment includes front and rear panels with zones of elastification and non-elastication in the abdomen and rear regions of the garments. The zones of elastification comprise an elastified region, and a non-elastified region or a de-elastified region. The elastified non-elastified or de-elastified regions work in tandem to provide greater contour support and improved fit.
