The present invention aims to provide a wearing article improved so that a joint strength of joint arrays along which front and rear waist regions are joined together may be generally uniformed. On a garment-facing outer side of an outer sheet 17 constituting a chassis 2, a liquid-absorbent structure 3 extending at least across a crotch region 8 and further into front and rear waist regions 6, 7 is provided. The chassis 2 is formed along front waist regions side edges 9, 9 and rear waist regions side edges 10, 10 with joint arrays 25. The liquid-absorbent structure 3 includes front and rear ends 3a, 3b opposed to each other in a longitudinal direction Y and extending in a transverse direction X. The front end 3a is covered with a front waist sheet 4 and the rear end 3b is covered with a rear waist sheet 5. The front waist sheet 4 extends from one of the front waist regions side edges 9, 9 to the other of these side edges 9, 9 in the transverse direction X and the rear waist sheet 5 extends from one of the rear waist regions side edges 10, 10 to the other of these side edges 10, 10 in the transverse direction X. Along the respective joint arrays 25, the front and rear waist sheets 4, 5 are spaced from each other in the longitudinal direction Y.
