Abstract
A belt for use with an absorbent garment generally for persons suffering from incontinence. The belt has two laterally spaced edges defining an area for releasable attachment of hook element strips of hook and loop type fastening elements. The belt also has only one defined portion, extending externally along a minor proportion of the length of the belt and across the major proportion of the width (z) of the belt, the defined portion being a non-attachment zone to which the hook elements cannot attach.
