Claim:
1. A folded disposable absorbent garment having a longitudinal axis and a transverse axis, the garment comprising: a chassis including longitudinal ends, transverse sides, a front region, a back region, a crotch region extending between and interconnecting the front and back regions, the chassis being folded about the transverse axis of the garment such that the back region overlies the front region, a pair of front side panels, each of the front side panels having a transverse distal edge, the transverse distal edges of the front side panels defining a transverse width of the training pant at the front region, one of the front side panels being formed separately from, attached to and extending from one transverse side in the front region and the other front side panel being formed separately from, attached to and extending from the other transverse side in the front region, wherein an entirety of each of the front side panels comprises a non-elastic material, and a pair of back side panels, each of the back side panels having a transverse distal edge, the transverse distal edges of the back side panels defining a transverse width of the training pant at the back region, one of the back side panels being formed separately from, attached to and extending from one transverse side in the back region and the other back side panel being formed separately from, attached to and extending from the other transverse side in the back region, wherein an entirety of each of the back side panels comprises and elastic material, the width of the training pant at the back region being greater than the width of the training pant at the front region; first and second refastenable side seams, each refastenable side seam joining one of the front side panels to one of the back side panels in an overlapping relationship and including at least one resilient fastening component, each of the back side panels and each of the front side panels being folded such that each of the refastenable side seams including the at least one resilient fastening component overlies one of the front region and the back region of the chassis.
