Abstract
Arrays of durable absorbent underwear pants having common cut style designations are disclosed. Each of the arrays includes pants of a common cut style designation and a plurality of differing size designations. In some examples pants of differing size designations in the arrays are sized such that, with each step up in size designation to an adjacent larger size designation, the associated amount or percentage of increase in actual pant hip and/or waist size is equal to, or decreases, as compared to the increase associated with the preceding step up. In some examples pants of differing size designations are sized such that, with each step up in size designation to an adjacent larger size designation, the difference between actual pant hip size and actual pant waist size decreases. The disclosed sizing practices reflect discoveries of wearers' preferences for differences in fit, with differences in body sizes.
