Abstract

An elasticized article and a method for elasticizing the article are disclosed in which a strip of elastic material has an end bonded to an end of a strip of shrinkable material to form a single elongated strip having spaced apart opposing ends. The combined strip is bonded at its opposing ends to a flexible substrate of an article with the elastic material in a contracted relaxed condition and the shrinkable means in a stable extended condition. Subsequent to the application of the combined strip to the flexible substrate, the shrinkable means is contracted by shrinking to thereby extend the elastic material and elasticize the flexible substrate.
