Abstract
An elastic composite structure includes a first web layer comprising a first portion, a second portion, and a third portion; a second web layer comprising a first portion and a second portion; and a plurality of elastic threads. The first portion of the first web layer is folded over and overlaps the second portion of the first web layer. The folded first portion of the first web layer is directly bonded to one of the second portion of the first web layer and the first portion of the second web layer. A first portion of the plurality of elastic threads is constrained between the folded first portion of the first web layer and the second portion of the first web layer absent adhesive. The third portion is directly bonded to the second portion of the second web layer and traps a second portion of the plurality of elastic threads therebetween.
