A disposable diaper comprises an absorbent structure integrated within an outer cover. The outer cover includes front and rear elasticized waist panels, an intermediate crotch panel separating the waist panels from one another, a pair of sides extending between and interconnecting the waist panels, a pair of leg openings delimited along the sides and front and rear pairs of ears delimited at the sides of the front and rear waist panels, respectively. The rear pair of ears define elongated shapes with internal, body-facing surfaces, a proximal portion spaced from a line centered on the longitudinal axis of the diaper, suer end portions spaced distally from the proximal portions and elastomeric medial portions adjustably spacing and separating the user portions from the proximal portions. The front pair of ears have externally-facing surfaces presenting appointed landing zones, including fixed-position fasteners, cooperable with fixed fasteners provided on the user ends, and including variable-position fasteners selectably engageable with cooperating variable fasteners provided on the proximal portions, wherein the medial portions stretch to allow adjustment and fastening of the fixed-position fasteners once the variable-position fasteners have been selectably fastened.
