A disposable pant-type absorbent article such as a pant diaper, a sanitary pant or incontinence pant, said article comprises: a chassis ; an absorbent body ; wherein the chassis has a front portion and a back portion , each of the front and back portions has a waist edge , a pair of leg edges and a pair of side edges ; wherein the front and back portions are joined to each other at opposite side edges to at least partly define a waist-opening and a pair of leg-openings , wherein the absorbent body is located mainly in a crotch portion of the article , wherein an elastic leg feature is fastened to the chassis at least partly along leg edges , and wherein said article has a longitudinal direction (y) and a transverse direction (x), characterised in that the leg edges are located at the front portion of the absorbent article and the elastic leg feature extends from the associated side edge towards a centre line extending in the longitudinal direction (y) of the article , wherein a width of the elastic leg feature is from 8 to 28 millimetres, as measured in an extended state of the absorbent article , wherein the elastic leg feature comprises a set of 4 to 10 individual elastic threads, wherein a portion of the elastic leg feature starting from the side edge has a first length (L1), in which a distance (D) between any point of each leg edge to the nearest part of the elastic leg feature , in a longitudinal direction, is less than 6 millimetres, specifically less than 5 millimetres, and more specifically less than 4 millimetres, and wherein the first length (L1) is at least 55% of a maximal length (L2) of the leg opening in the transverse direction (x), as measured in an extended state of the absorbent article in which the absorbent article has been extended in all four directions to such an extent that all the elastic materials contained therein are extended to such an extent that they will not gather any part of the absorbent article. a chassis ; an absorbent body ; wherein the chassis has a front portion and a back portion , each of the front and back portions has a waist edge , a pair of leg edges and a pair of side edges ; wherein the front and back portions are joined to each other at opposite side edges to at least partly define a waist-opening and a pair of leg-openings , wherein the absorbent body is located mainly in a crotch portion of the article , wherein an elastic leg feature is fastened to the chassis at least partly along leg edges , and wherein said article has a longitudinal direction (y) and a transverse direction (x), characterised in that the leg edges are located at the front portion of the absorbent article and the elastic leg feature extends from the associated side edge towards a centre line extending in the longitudinal direction (y) of the article , wherein a width of the elastic leg feature is from 8 to 28 millimetres, as measured in an extended state of the absorbent article , wherein the elastic leg feature comprises a set of 4 to 10 individual elastic threads, wherein a portion of the elastic leg feature starting from the side edge has a first length (L1), in which a distance (D) between any point of each leg edge to the nearest part of the elastic leg feature , in a longitudinal direction, is less than 6 millimetres, specifically less than 5 millimetres, and more specifically less than 4 millimetres, and wherein the first length (L1) is at least 55% of a maximal length (L2) of the leg opening in the transverse direction (x), as measured in an extended state of the absorbent article in which the absorbent article has been extended in all four directions to such an extent that all the elastic materials contained therein are extended to such an extent that they will not gather any part of the absorbent article. <EOS>
