ABSTRACT:
The present invention is a closure enforcing apparatus for diapering garments. The diapering garment has a main piece with a contoured edge. There is at least one primary fastener fully attached to the main piece near the contoured edge, and at least one complementary fastener fully attached to the main piece also near the contoured edge but at a remote location, such that the primary fastener can be mated onto the complementary fastener to close the diapering garment. In addition, there is at least one secondary fastener being the same type as the primary fastener, and having a free floating end laterally extending out from the contoured edge of the main piece and an opposite end attached to the main piece near the primary fastener. The size of the complementary fastener is substantially smaller than that of the primary fastener, and the thickness of the secondary fastener is substantially thinner than that of the contoured edge of the main piece. As the primary fastener is mated onto the complementary fastener, the secondary fastener can also be mated onto the complementary fastener to enforce the closure of the diapering garment.
