A method of creating an absorbent article comprising a first region, a second region, and a target region, each of the first region, second region, and target region extending laterally across the absorbent article, the method comprising the steps of: obtaining an apertured topsheet web; obtaining a fluid management web; cutting the fluid management web to create discrete portions; placing the discrete portions of fluid management web onto the topsheet web; obtaining an absorbent core web, the absorbent core web comprising a plurality of absorbent fibers; cutting the absorbent core web into discrete portions; placing the discrete portions of absorbent core web on the topsheet and fluid management web; creating a long fiber network comprising at least one of the topsheet, the discrete portions of fluid management web and/or the discrete portions of absorbent core web, wherein the long fiber network comprises fibers longer than 6 mm; creating a first plurality of conforming features in a first combination of layers comprising at least one of the topsheet, discrete portions of the fluid management web, and discrete portions of absorbent core web in a target zone, the target zone corresponding to the area of the absorbent article that is expected to receive liquid insults from a user, the target zone being disposed in the target region; creating a second plurality of conforming features in a second combination of layers comprising at least one of the topsheet, discrete portions of the fluid management web, and discrete portions of the absorbent core web in a first zone and/or a second zone, the first zone being disposed in the first region and the second zone being disposed in the second region, wherein the conforming features include protrusions, ridges, grooves, depressions or tufts; obtaining a backsheet web; placing the backsheet web onto the topsheet, discrete portions of fluid management web, and discrete portions of absorbent core web, thereby creating a topsheet, fluid management, absorbent core, and backsheet laminate web; and cutting the topsheet, fluid management, absorbent core, and backsheet laminate web into discrete absorbent articles, wherein longitudinal side edges of the fluid management discrete portions and the absorbent core discrete portions are disposed inboard of longitudinal side edges of the topsheet and backsheet, wherein the first combination of layers comprises different layers than the second combination of layers. obtaining an apertured topsheet web; obtaining a fluid management web; cutting the fluid management web to create discrete portions; placing the discrete portions of fluid management web onto the topsheet web; obtaining an absorbent core web, the absorbent core web comprising a plurality of absorbent fibers; cutting the absorbent core web into discrete portions; placing the discrete portions of absorbent core web on the topsheet and fluid management web; creating a long fiber network comprising at least one of the topsheet, the discrete portions of fluid management web and/or the discrete portions of absorbent core web, wherein the long fiber network comprises fibers longer than 6 mm; creating a first plurality of conforming features in a first combination of layers comprising at least one of the topsheet, discrete portions of the fluid management web, and discrete portions of absorbent core web in a target zone, the target zone corresponding to the area of the absorbent article that is expected to receive liquid insults from a user, the target zone being disposed in the target region; creating a second plurality of conforming features in a second combination of layers comprising at least one of the topsheet, discrete portions of the fluid management web, and discrete portions of the absorbent core web in a first zone and/or a second zone, the first zone being disposed in the first region and the second zone being disposed in the second region, wherein the conforming features include protrusions, ridges, grooves, depressions or tufts; obtaining a backsheet web; placing the backsheet web onto the topsheet, discrete portions of fluid management web, and discrete portions of absorbent core web, thereby creating a topsheet, fluid management, absorbent core, and backsheet laminate web; and cutting the topsheet, fluid management, absorbent core, and backsheet laminate web into discrete absorbent articles, wherein longitudinal side edges of the fluid management discrete portions and the absorbent core discrete portions are disposed inboard of longitudinal side edges of the topsheet and backsheet, wherein the first combination of layers comprises different layers than the second combination of layers.
