Abstract
A disposable pull-on garment having at least one pair of extensible car panels extending laterally outward from the chassis in the front or back region. Each ear panel has an outermost edge line and at least one outermost edge line has a non-uniform lateral distance from the longitudinal center line when the garment is in an unseamed flat condition. Seams join the ear panels to the chassis along the outermost edge lines to form two leg openings and a waist opening. In another embodiment, the garment has a pair of extensible ear panels in each of the front and back regions and at least one outermost edge line has a non-uniform lateral distance from the longitudinal center line when the garment is in an unseamed flat condition. Seams join the corresponding front and back ear panels along their outermost edge lines to form two leg openings and a waist opening.
