A WEARING ARTICLE (1) INCLUDES A CHASSIS (100) AND AN ABSORBER MAIN BODY (200). THE WEARING ARTICLE HAS A CENTRAL ELASTIC MEMBER (41C) OVERLAPPING A NON-SKIN SURFACE OF AN ABSORBER IN THE CROTCH REGION (120) AND EXTENDING ALONG A LONGITUDINAL DIRECTION (L) AT AN APPROXIMATELY CENTER OF A WIDTHWISE DIRECTION (W) OF THE WEARING ARTICLE, AND A BACK LEG ELASTIC MEMBER (24R) THAT CURVES WITHIN THE CROTCH REGION FROM THE END OF A BACK WAISTLINE REGION (110R) IN THE WIDTHWISE DIRECTION AND CONFIGURES AT LEAST A PART OF AN ELASTIC STRESS LINE (310) THAT CROSSES THE ABSORBER ALONG THE WIDTHWISE DIRECTION. IN THE ELASTIC STRESS LINE, THE ELASTIC STRESS OF THE PORTION CROSSING THE ABSORBER IS SMALLER THAN THE ELASTIC STRESS OF THE CENTRAL ELASTIC MEMBER. FIG. 2
