An absorbent article comprising: a front edge; a rear edge longitudinally opposing the front edge; a first side edge; a second side edge laterally opposing the first side edge; a longitudinal axis extending from a midpoint of the front edge to a midpoint of the rear edge; a lateral axis extending from a midpoint of the first side edge to a midpoint of the second side edge; a liquid permeable topsheet; a liquid impermeable backsheet; a pair of barrier leg cuffs extending at least partially between the front edge and the rear edge on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis, wherein each barrier leg cuff comprises a proximal edge joined to the topsheet or the backsheet and a free terminal edge; and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet and comprising a core wrap enclosing an absorbent material, wherein the core wrap comprises a first nonwoven and a second nonwoven, wherein the first nonwoven forms a C-wrap at least partially around the second nonwoven, wherein the absorbent material comprises at least 80% of superabsorbent polymers by weight of the absorbent material, characterized in that the absorbent core comprises a channel substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers, at least partially oriented in the longitudinal direction of the article, and comprising an arcuate portion, wherein the first nonwoven and the second nonwoven are bonded to each other through a portion of the channel, wherein the channel has lateral widths taken parallel to the lateral axis, and wherein a profile of the lateral widths of the channel over a longitudinal length of at least 50mm of the channel taken along the longitudinal axis is substantially constant and wherein the substantially constant lateral width is in the range of about 5mm to about 10mm. a front edge; a rear edge longitudinally opposing the front edge; a first side edge; a second side edge laterally opposing the first side edge; a longitudinal axis extending from a midpoint of the front edge to a midpoint of the rear edge; a lateral axis extending from a midpoint of the first side edge to a midpoint of the second side edge; a liquid permeable topsheet; a liquid impermeable backsheet; a pair of barrier leg cuffs extending at least partially between the front edge and the rear edge on opposite sides of the longitudinal axis, wherein each barrier leg cuff comprises a proximal edge joined to the topsheet or the backsheet and a free terminal edge; and an absorbent core disposed at least partially intermediate the topsheet and the backsheet and comprising a core wrap enclosing an absorbent material, wherein the core wrap comprises a first nonwoven and a second nonwoven, wherein the first nonwoven forms a C-wrap at least partially around the second nonwoven, wherein the absorbent material comprises at least 80% of superabsorbent polymers by weight of the absorbent material, characterized in that the absorbent core comprises a channel substantially free of the superabsorbent polymers, at least partially oriented in the longitudinal direction of the article, and comprising an arcuate portion, wherein the first nonwoven and the second nonwoven are bonded to each other through a portion of the channel, wherein the channel has lateral widths taken parallel to the lateral axis, and wherein a profile of the lateral widths of the channel over a longitudinal length of at least 50mm of the channel taken along the longitudinal axis is substantially constant and wherein the substantially constant lateral width is in the range of about 5mm to about 10mm.
