The invention relates to a diaper having a partial elastic waist along the front and rear waist of an elastic-legged disposable diaper. The elastic has a controlled tension and a controlled retraction that allows change of the waist of the diaper as the wearer shifts position without causing so much pressure on the skin that abrasion or reddening of the skin takes place. The waist elastic further is located outside the area of the fluff of the diaper. In a preferred form of diaper the elastic is in place in the center one-third to two-thirds of the front of the diaper and between about one-third and the total width and the edges of the tape attachment points on the back of the diaper. Further, the waist elastics are placed at least one-fourth inch away from the edge of the fluff and have a maximum possible elastic travel of between about 2 inches and 4 inches in an infant diaper. |
