Abstract:
A disposable absorbent brief. The brief includes a back section having a pair of ears, each having a single fastening tape mounted thereon, and a front section having a pair of ears for releasable securement by the fastening tapes of the front section. The portions of the brief located between the ears are in the form of an opposed pair of central edges. The central edges are ergonomically contoured so that when the brief's ears are secured to each other the central edges and contiguous ears form respective high-cut leg openings for the wearer, with portions of the brief providing enhanced coverage of the wearer's buttocks.
