Absorbent articles such as disposable diapers and disposable pant like garments are disclosed. In particular, absorbent articles such as disposable diapers and pants having an improved barrier cuff structure for improved fit are described. The placement of a barrier cuff structure having a tackdown point near the waistband of the article tends to “pull down” the waistband and may cause sagging. Intermediate tackdown bonds are disclosed to achieve the containment benefits of a barrier cuff structure without sacrificing fit characteristics of the article. The intermediate tackdown may be intermediate one or both of the longitudinal ends of the barrier cuff strip and the lateral side edges of the strip. Additionally, the relationship of forces, angles, and design characteristics of aspects of the articles and sagging are disclosed.

1. An absorbent article comprising: an absorbent assembly having a front waist region, a back waist region, and a crotch region between the front and back waist regions, an interior surface and an exterior surface, and a longitudinal axis and a lateral axis;an absorbent core disposed between the interior and exterior surfaces and having at least a portion extending into one of the waist regions;two laterally opposing, longitudinally extending barrier cuff strips associated with the interior surface of the absorbent assembly, each barrier cuff strip having longitudinally opposing front and back ends disposed in the respective waist regions and longitudinally extending, laterally proximal and distal edges connecting the front and back ends, each barrier cuff strip being joined to the interior surface of the absorbent assembly along the proximal edge, each barrier cuff strip distal edge being attached to the interior surface of the absorbent assembly at end bonds located adjacent to the front and back ends of the barrier cuff strip, wherein each end bond comprises a discrete bond site defining a closure zone having a lateral width that is less than a lateral distance between the proximal and distal edges, and each barrier cuff strip including a longitudinally extending elastic gathering member attached adjacent to the distal edge such that when allowed to relax, the elastic gathering member contracts and lifts the distal edge away from the interior surface of the absorbent assembly;wherein each barrier cuff strip is also joined to a portion of the absorbent assembly within one of the waist regions at a discrete, intermediate bond, and wherein the entire intermediate bond is laterally offset from the width of the respective closure zone. 2. The absorbent article of claim 1, wherein the intermediate bond is located in the front waist region. 3. The absorbent article of claim 1, wherein each intermediate bond is located laterally between the proximal and distal edges and longitudinally between the respective end bond and the lateral axis. 4. The absorbent article of claim 1, wherein the barrier cuff strips and the topsheet are formed from a same material piece. 5. The absorbent article of claim 1, wherein the proximal edges of the barrier cuff strips are located nearer the longitudinal axis than the distal edges of the barrier cuff strips. 6. The absorbent article of claim 1, wherein the barrier cuff strips comprise dual cuff barrier cuff strips. 7. An absorbent article comprising: an absorbent assembly having a front waist region, a back waist region, and a crotch region between the front and back waist regions, an interior surface and an exterior surface, and a longitudinal axis and a lateral axis;two laterally opposing, longitudinally extending barrier cuff strips associated with the interior surface of the absorbent assembly, each barrier cuff strip having longitudinally opposing front and back ends disposed in the respective waist regions and longitudinally extending, laterally proximal and distal edges connecting the front and back ends, wherein the proximal edges are located nearer the longitudinal axis than the distal edges, each barrier cuff strip being joined to the interior surface of the absorbent assembly along the proximal edge, each barrier cuff strip distal edge being attached to the interior surface of the absorbent assembly at end bonds located adjacent to the front and back ends of the barrier cuff strip, wherein each end bond comprises a discrete bond site defining a closure zone having a lateral width that is less than a lateral distance between the proximal and distal edges, and each barrier cuff strip including a longitudinally extending elastic gathering member attached adjacent to the distal edge such that when allowed to relax, the elastic gathering member contracts and lifts the distal edge away from the interior surface of the absorbent assembly;wherein each barrier cuff strip is also attached to the interior surface of the absorbent assembly at a discrete, intermediate bond located laterally between the proximal and distal edges and longitudinally between the respective end bond and the lateral axis within one of the waist regions, and wherein the entire intermediate bond is laterally offset from the width of the respective closure zone. 8. The absorbent article of claim 7, wherein the intermediate bond is located in the front waist region. 9. The absorbent article of claim 7, wherein the barrier cuff strips are each constructed from a continuous cuff material and wherein barrier cuffs are connected with the topsheet. 10. The absorbent article of claim 7, wherein the barrier cuff strips comprise dual cuff barrier cuff strips.
