Abstract

A disposable wearing article is provided with a pair of liquid-barrier sheets on a body-side surface of the article. A dimension by which distal edges of distal zones of the barrier sheets are spaced from each other in a transverse direction is gradually enlarged from a side of rear ends toward the side of front ends of the article. An end sheet functioning to pull the distal zones closer to each other in the transverse direction is attached to the distal zones extending aside toward the side of the rear ends so as to extend between the distal zones. With the article put on the wearer's body, the distal edges of the distal zones come closer to or in contact with the wearer's inguinal region and further go into the wearer's buttock cleavage and come closer to or in contact with both sides of the anus.
