Abstract
An absorbent garment having a pant-like configuration is constructed with strategically placed leg elastic, resulting in an aesthetically pleasing, finished look at the leg openings. Such strategic placements include securing the leg elastic to an outer cover and folding the outer cover over the elastic; or placing the elastic between a liquid-permneable body side liner and the outer cover and folding the outer cover over the elastic and securing the outer cover to the body side liner; or folding the outer cover more than once around the elastic. In any case, the distance between the leg elastic is nearly equal to the width dimension of the outer cover of the finished product. In addition to being aesthetically pleasing, the finished product eliminates the chance of exposing the leg elastic to the user. In an alternate embodiment, portions of the outer cover can extend laterally beyond an absorbent layer, thereby serving as seamless leak guards.
