1. An absorbent article comprising a front region, a crotch region, and a back region, the absorbent article comprising:

a first inner belt web;

a second inner belt web;

an outer cover web extending from a front waist edge to a back waist edge;

a first plurality of elastics disposed between the first inner belt web and the outer cover web;

a second plurality of elastics disposed between the second inner belt web and the outer cover web;

first and second laterally opposed side seams joining the first and second inner belt webs together, such that a waist opening and first and second leg openings are formed;

each of the laterally opposed side seams comprising a waist end edge and a leg end edge;

a first axis from the leg end edge of the first side seam to the leg end edge of the second side seam, along the first inner belt, the first axis defining the transition between the front region and the crotch region;

the area between the first axis and a transverse axis of the absorbent article defining a front crotch region;

a second axis from the leg end edge of the first side seam to the leg end edge of the second side seam, along the second inner belt, the second axis defining the transition between the back region and the crotch region;

the area between the second axis and a transverse axis of the absorbent article defining a back crotch region;

wherein the first plurality of elastics are disposed in the front region and the front crotch region;

wherein the second plurality of elastics are disposed in the back region and the back crotch region;

wherein the first inner belt extends longitudinally from the front region into the front crotch region;

wherein the second inner belt extends longitudinally from the back region into the back crotch region; and

wherein the first and second plurality of elastics consist of linear segments parallel with a transverse axis of the article.

2. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of elastics overlap with barrier leg cuffs.

3. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the first inner belt web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are nonlinear.

4. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the first inner belt web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are convex.

5. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the first inner belt web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are concave.

6. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the second inner belt web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are nonlinear.

7. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the second inner belt web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are convex.

8. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the second inner belt web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are concave.

9. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the outer cover web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are nonlinear.

10. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the outer cover web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are convex.

11. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein at least some portions of the outer cover web forming at least some portions of the first and second leg openings are concave.

12. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of elastics are parallel.

13. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein the second plurality of elastics are parallel.

14. The absorbent article of claim 1 , further comprising a central chassis comprising an absorbent core, wherein a portion of the outer cover web overlaps the waist end edges and is joined to an interior surface of the centra chassis.

15. The absorbent article of claim 1 , wherein the portion of the outer cover web that overlaps the interior surface of the central chassis also overlaps an interior surface of the absorbent core.

16. The absorbent article of claim 1 , further comprising a central chassis, the central chassis comprising barrier leg cuffs and an absorbent core.

17. The absorbent article of claim 16 , wherein the central chassis is disposed in the front, back, and crotch regions.

18. The absorbent article of claim 17 , wherein the first and second plurality of elastics are interrupted such that they are do not overlap at least a portion the central chassis in the front and back regions.

19. The absorbent article of claim 18 , wherein the second plurality of elastics are interrupted such that they are do not overlap at least a portion of the central chassis in the front and back crotch regions.

20. The absorbent article of claim 16 , wherein a central portion of the barrier leg cuffs extend transversely outboard of the outer cover web.
