a waist portion that is elastic, the waist portion being configured to be worn at a waist of the wearer, the waist portion defining a circumferential direction, a radial direction, and a transverse direction that is transverse to the circumferential and radial directions, the waist portion including a diametral surface that extends longitudinally in the circumferential direction; an adhesive tape that is elastic, the adhesive tape being adhesively attached to and layered continuously on the diametral surface of the waist portion; and an elastic band that is adhesively attached to and layered on the adhesive tape to attach the elastic band to the waist portion, the elastic band including a first radial surface, a second radial surface that opposes the first radial surface, an upper edge, and a lower edge, wherein the waist portion includes a cross section with a first radial layer, an upper rim, and a second radial layer, the second radial layer defining a terminal end of the waist portion, wherein a pocket is defined between the first radial layer, the second radial layer, and the upper rim of the waist portion, wherein the adhesive tape and the elastic band are received within the pocket with the first radial surface of the elastic band facing the first radial layer of the waist portion, the second radial surface of the elastic band facing the second radial layer, and the upper edge being proximate the upper rim, and wherein the waist portion, in the cross section, is layered over the first radial surface of the elastic band, the upper edge, and the second radial surface of the elastic band with the terminal edge disposed between the upper edge and the lower edge of the elastic band in the transverse direction such that at least a portion of the second radial surface of the elastic band remains uncovered from the waist portion. |
