The present disclosure provides a multi-ply tissue product, also referred to herein as a tissue laminate, wherein the plies are adhesively adjoined by the zoned application of an adhesive. The zoned application of adhesive results in plies being adhesively joined by two or more longitudinally oriented strips of adhesive adjacent to the lateral edges of the ply. The resulting adhesively joined tissue has relatively high degrees of ply attachment, yet has relatively low stiffness.
