The invention refers to a pant-type absorbent article such as a pant diaper, a sanitary pant or incontinence pant comprising a front portion (5) and a back portion (6) joined to each other along longitudinally extending side seams (13, 14) and further comprising a connecting portion (19) between the front and back portions. The connecting portion (19) forms a crotch region (19a) and leg openings (16, 17). At least part of the front portion, back portion and the connecting portion is composed of an elastic laminate extending transversely across the width of the front, back and connecting portions. Elongated leg elastic members (27-30, 39, 40) extend along the leg openings in at least part of the connecting portion (19) and terminate at a distance from the respective side seam (13, 14) thus leaving an area corresponding to a peripheral length (p) of at least 50 mm along the respective leg opening where the leg elastic members are absent and wherein the connecting portion (19) in said area where the leg elastic members are absent is composed of said elastic laminate in at least 90% of said peripheral length (p).本發明係有關於一種褲型吸收性物品,諸如褲型尿片、生理褲或失禁褲,包含沿縱向延伸的側接縫彼此接合的一前部及一後部,及進一步包含在該前部與後部間的一連接部。連接部形成一胯區及腿開口。前部、後部及連接部的至少部分係由橫向延伸跨前部、後部及連接部之寬度的一彈性層合物組成。經伸長的腿彈性構件沿腿開口延伸於連接部的至少部分且終結於距個別側接縫的一距離,如此留下沿著個別腿開口對應至少50毫米周長的一區於該處腿彈性構件為不存在,及其中於該處腿彈性構件為不存在的該區內的連接部係由該周長至少90%的彈性層合物組成。
