A simplified elastic laminate is made from nonwovens and is especially suitable
for side panels of training pant garments or the like. A plurality of thermoplastic
adhesive elastomeric fibers are located between first and second facing webs. The
fibers have an elastic core and adhesive surfaces. The facing webs, with the elastomeric
fibers between them, are calendered together thus adhering the facing webs together
via contact adhesion with the elastomeric fibers.
