Elastic buttock sections (77), which straddle a crotch region (25) and a rear waist region (30) and expand and contract in the product longitudinal direction (L), are disposed further to the outside in the product width direction (W) than the elastic leg sections (75). The extension percentage of the elastic buttock sections (77) is higher than the extension percentage of the elastic leg sections (75)."
