A disposable absorbent article such as an absorbent diaper comprises a containment assembly comprising a topsheet, a backsheet and an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet. The backsheet comprises a nonwoven web positioned at the outermost of the absorbent article, for covering at least a portion of the outermost portion of the absorbent article. The backsheet has a hand value of Koshi of less than about 11.0, a hand value of Shari of from about 5.0 to about 7.0, and a hand value of Fukurami of less than about 0.5. Preferably, the backsheet has a fuzz level of less than about 0.24 mg/cm<2>. More preferably, the nonwoven web is a spunbonded nonwoven web. In a preferred embodiment, the spunbonded nonwoven web has a tensile strength of at least 180 gf/cm in the traverse direction of the disposable absorbent article. Preferably, the backsheet further comprises a plastic film having an outer-facing surface and a body-facing surface, and the nonwoven web is joined with the outer-facing surface of the plastic film to form a laminate. In a preferred embodiment, the nonwoven web is made of spun-bonded plastic fibers of a polyethylene and a polypropylene.
