The disclosure relates to a disposable pant-type absorbent article (1), such as a pant diaper, a sanitary pant or incontinence pant, for an adult user. The absorbent article (1) has a longitudinal direction(Y)and a transverse direction (X). The absorbent article further comprises a front body panel(3)having a waist edge (20), a pair of leg edges (21a, 21b) and a pair of side edges (9a, 9b), a back body panel (4) having waist edge (25), a pair of leg edges (27a, 27b), a pair of side edges (10a, 10b), a main section(28)and a buttocks-covering section(29), and an absorbent insert(2)located mainly in a crotch portion(70) of the absorbent article(1) and connected to the front and back body panels (3, 4) for bridging the gap between the front and back body panels (3, 4). The absorbent insert (2) comprises an absorbent core (5). The front and back body panels(3, 4)are also joined to each other at opposite side edges (9a, 10a, 9b, 10b) to at least partly define a waist-opening (7) and a pair of leg-openings (8). The front body panel(3)has a first at least partly elastic region (11) extending along the leg edges (21a, 21b) of the front body panel(3), and a second at least partly elastic region (12) located next to the first elastic region (11). The back body panel (4) has a third elastic region (13) extending at least partly over the buttocks-covering section(29)of the back body panel (4). Each of said elastic regions (11-13) are elasticised by means of a plurality of elastic threads (11T-13T) arranged substantially in the transverse direction(X)across a major portion of the front or back body panel (3, 4). Aside edge (13L1) of the third elastic region (13) overlaps in the longitudinal direction (Y) both a side edge (11L) of the first at least partly elastic region (11) and part of a side edge (12L) of the second at least partly elastic region (12) at the side seams (6a, 6b).La descripción se refiere a un artículo absorbente, de tipo calzoncillo, desechable (1), tal como un
