A two-piece wearable absorbent article (such as a diaper) including an outer cover and an absorbent insert for use therewith, are disclosed. The outer cover may have a first hook-and-loop fastening system that provides for removable and refastenable and adjustable fastening of the outer cover about a wearer's lower torso. The absorbent insert and outer cover may have a second hook-and-loop fastening system that provides for removable and refastenable fastening of the insert within the outer cover. The first and second hook-and-loop fastening systems may have respective holding force and acoustic characteristics within advantageous performance ranges, individually and with respect to each other.

The article of claim 1 wherein the outer cover fastening system sustains a first Vertical Load at 0.5 mm Vertical Displacement/Engagement Area of from 0.0015 N/mm2 to 0.015 N/mm2. 3. The article of claim 1 wherein the insert-outer cover fastening system sustains a second Vertical Peak Load/Engagement Area of from 0.0061 N/mm2 to 0.030 N/mm2. 4. The article of claim 2 wherein the insert-outer cover fastening system sustains a second Vertical Peak Load/Engagement Area of from 0.0061 N/mm2 to 0.030 N/mm2. 5. The article of claim 2 wherein the insert-outer cover fastening system sustains a second Vertical Load at 0.5 mm Vertical Displacement/Engagement Area that is less than the First Vertical Load at 0.5 mm Vertical Displacement/Engagement Area. 6. The article of claim 1 wherein the outer cover fastening system that upon disengagement generates sound pressure levels at the frequencies closest to 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, respectively, of no greater than 40 dB, no greater than 40 dB, and no greater than 50 dB, respectively, as measured and recorded in the Fastener Acoustic Test herein. 7. The article of claim 6 wherein the insert-outer cover fastening system that upon disengagement generates sound pressure levels at the frequencies closest to 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, respectively, that are greater, respectively, than those generated by disengagement of the outer cover fastening system, as measured and recorded in the Fastener Acoustic Test herein. 8. The article of claim 6 wherein the insert-outer cover fastening system that upon disengagement generates sound pressure levels at the frequencies closest to 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, respectively, of no greater than 45 dB, no greater than 45 dB, and no greater than 40 dB, respectively, as measured and recorded in the Fastener Acoustic Test herein. 9. A wearable absorbent article to be worn by a wearer about the lower torso, comprising: an outer cover having an outer cover longitudinal length and comprising an outer cover front region, an outer cover rear region, an outer cover lateral axis between front and rear regions and equally dividing the outer cover longitudinal length; a pair of fastening ears extending laterally from the outer cover rear region, a hooks fastening element disposed on at least one of the fastening ears; a loops receiving element disposed on the outer cover front region; and a first insert fastener component disposed on the outer cover; wherein the hooks fastening element and the loops receiving element are cooperative to effect fastenable, removable and refastenable attachment of the at least one fastening ear to the outer cover front region; and the hooks fastening element and the loops receiving element form an outer cover fastening system that upon disengagement generates sound pressure levels at the frequencies closest to 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, respectively, of no greater than 40 dB, no greater than 40 dB, and no greater than 50 dB, respectively, as measured and recorded in the Fastener Acoustic Test herein; anda disposable absorbent insert having an insert longitudinal length and comprising 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 a first fastener component disposed thereon; wherein the first insert fastener component and the first fastener component are cooperative to effect fastenable, removable and refastenable attachment of the insert to the outer cover; and the first insert fastener component and the first fastener component form a hook and loop insert-outer cover fastening system that upon disengagement generates sound pressure levels at the frequencies closest to 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, respectively, of no greater than 45 dB, no greater than 45 dB, and no greater than 40 dB, respectively, as measured and recorded in the Fastener Acoustic Test herein. 10. The article of claim 9 wherein the outer cover fastening system exhibits a first Vertical Peak Load/Engagement Area of from 0.045 N/mm2 to 0.076 N/mm2. 11. The article of claim 10 wherein the insert-outer cover fastening system exhibits a second Vertical Peak Load/Engagement Area that is less than the first Vertical Peak Load/Engagement Area. 12. A wearable absorbent article to be worn by a wearer about the lower torso, comprising: an outer cover having an outer cover longitudinal length and comprising an outer cover front region, an outer cover rear region, an outer cover lateral axis between front and rear regions and equally dividing the outer cover longitudinal length; a pair of fastening ears extending laterally from the outer cover rear region, a hooks fastening element disposed on at least one of the fastening ears; a loops receiving element disposed on the outer cover front region; and a first insert fastener component disposed on the outer cover; wherein the hooks fastening element and the loops receiving element are cooperative to effect fastenable, removable and refastenable attachment of the at least one fastening ear to the outer cover front region; and the hooks fastening element and the loops receiving element form an outer cover fastening system that upon disengagement generates sound pressure levels at the frequencies closest to 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, respectively, of no greater than 40 dB, no greater than 40 dB, and no greater than 50 dB, respectively, as measured and recorded in the Fastener Acoustic Test herein; anda disposable absorbent insert having an insert longitudinal length and comprising 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 a first fastener component disposed thereon; wherein the first insert fastener component and the first fastener component are cooperative to effect fastenable, removable and refastenable attachment of the insert to the outer cover; and the first insert fastener component and the first fastener component form a hook and loop insert-outer cover fastening system that upon disengagement generates sound pressure levels at the frequencies closest to 500 Hz, 1000 Hz and 2,000 Hz, respectively, that are greater, respectively, than those generated by disengagement of the outer cover fastening system, as measured and recorded in the Fastener Acoustic Test herein.
