ABSTRACT:
A disposable diaper includes barrier cuffs around wearer's legs. Each of the barrier cuffs longitudinally extends on an inner surface of the disposable diaper and includes a supporting wall section adapted to rise on the inner surface of the diaper and a sealing surface zone which includes a first overhead section extending inwards from the supporting wall section and a second overhead section extending outwards from the supporting wall section. A first elastic member extending along an inner edge of the sealing surface zone in operative association with the first overhead section has an elongation stress higher than that of a second elastic member extending along an outer edge of the sealing surface zone in operative association with the second overhead section. The barrier cuffs thus constructed provide a good fit around a wearer's legs to prevent body fluids from leaking.
