ABSTRACT:
An absorbent article such as a disposable diaper, incontinence brief, diaper holder, training pant or the like, having a fastening system that provides the user with different options as to how the absorbent article will be constructed and fitted to the wearer. The fastening system allows the wearer to choose between conventional, belted, and pull-up diaper configurations. Further, the fastening system is designed to ensure easy changing and removal of the absorbent article as well as easy inspection for soiling. Such absorbent articles comprise a containment assembly generally comprising a liquid pervious topsheet, a liquid impervious backsheet, an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet, first and second belt flaps extending laterally outwardly from opposite sides of the containment assembly, and a refastenable fastening system comprising a first fastening assembly and a second fastening assembly. The first fastening assembly is designed for constructing the absorbent article in a belted configuration. The second fastening assembly, designed as an alternative to the first fastening assembly, provides a system for fastening the absorbent article in a conventional configuration.
