A wearable absorbent article having features for the containment and absorption of bodily exudates. The article may comprise an outer cover and an absorbent insert. The outer cover may be formed of durable or semi-durable materials and be launderable. The insert may be disposable. The insert may have containment and absorption features that prevent soiling of the outer cover by the wearer's exudates, so that the outer cover may be reused after an exudation event and change of inserts. The insert and/or the outer cover may have features to enhance containment, absorption, economy of materials and/or fit that make them asymmetric about their respective lateral axes, and may have features that direct a user to install the insert and/or the outer cover with correct front-rear orientation relative the wearer. Articles of commerce including packages of outer covers and/or inserts in varying combinations of numbers and features are also described.

1. An article of commerce, comprising: a package associating one or more reusable outer covers and at least two disposable absorbent inserts, every one of the one or more outer covers together with every one of the at least two disposable absorbent inserts being adapted to be combined to form a wearable absorbent article to be worn by a wearer about the lower torso;wherein each outer cover has an outer cover longitudinal length and comprises an outer cover front region, an outer cover rear region, and an outer cover lateral axis between front and rear regions and equally dividing the outer cover longitudinal length, and a first insert fastener component disposed thereon;wherein each disposable absorbent insert has an insert longitudinal length and comprises an insert forward region, an insert rearward region, an insert lateral axis between the forward and rearward regions and equally dividing the insert longitudinal length, a pair of elasticized longitudinal standing cuffs, and an insert indicium disposed thereon;wherein each insert is asymmetric across the insert lateral axis and comprises a backsheet that is substantially impervious to liquids, wherein the first of the at least two inserts comprises a first structure, wherein the second of the at least two inserts comprises a second structure, wherein the first structure is substantially free of superabsorbent polymers and absorbent gelling materials, and wherein the second structure comprises superabsorbent polymers or absorbent gelling materials;wherein each outer cover and each insert is adapted to function on or fit the wearer optimally with the insert forward region disposed proximate to the outer cover front region, the insert rearward region disposed proximate to the outer cover rear region, the outer cover front region and insert forward region disposed proximate to a torso front region of the wearer's lower torso, and the outer cover rear region and insert rearward region disposed proximate to a torso rear region of the wearer's lower torso; andwherein the insert indicium on each insert is adapted to provide information to a user concerning correct front-rear orientation of the insert with respect to any one of the outer cover or the wearer, and wherein one of the inserts comprises a user grasp structure extending from an end edge of the insert and overlapping a longitudinal axis of the insert. 2. The article of commerce of claim 1 wherein each outer cover is asymmetric across the outer cover lateral axis. 3. The article of commerce of claim 1 wherein the ratio of the number of included inserts to the number of included outer covers is at least 2:1. 4. The article of commerce of claim 1 wherein the ratio of the number of included inserts to the number of included outer covers is at least 4:1. 5. The article of commerce of claim 1 comprising at least two outer covers, wherein a first of the at least two outer covers is decorated with nighttime/sleep themes, and a second of the at least two outer covers is decorated with daytime/play themes. 6.
