Abstract
A wearing article configured to smooth out wrinkles that tend to be created in front and rear waist regions. A diaper includes front and rear waist members connected to an intermediary crotch. The front and rear waist members extend from waist ends toward the side of a crotch region and respectively include first regions overlapping front and rear end flaps of the absorbent structure and second regions adjacent the respective first regions. In the front and rear waist members, the first regions and the second regions are provided with first and second waist elastic members sandwiched between the respective top- and backsheets. The respective second regions are formed with inelastic zones overlapping the core and elastic regions lying on both sides of the inelastic regions in the transverse direction. The tightening force of the first regions are lower than the tightening force of the respective second regions.
