Abstract: Elastic threads for raisable gathers and elastic threads for leg gathers are provided in a specified relationship in side sheets provided at the opposite sides of a skin-side sheet, and the respective side sheets are adhered to the skin-side sheet in a specified relationship. In this way, the raisable gathers and leg gathers can be simultaneously formed in the side sheets. Further, a pocket into which an exchangeable and substantially sandglass-shaped second absorbent body can be positioned and inserted is formed between the skin-side sheet enclosed by the respective adhered portions and the respective side sheets.
