Abstract
A disposable pull-on diaper has a pair of tape fasteners to hold the diaper in a rolled up state. The tape fasteners are provided in the vicinity of transversely opposite side edges of a rear waist region so as to extend in a longitudinal direction. The tape fasteners have lower end portions bonded to the diaper by bonding zones extending in a waist-surrounding direction in the vicinity of peripheral edge portions of respective leg-openings. The bonding zones extend obliquely inward in the waist-surrounding direction from the transversely opposite side edge portions of the rear waist region toward the upper end portions of the respective tape fasteners.
