A pants-type disposable wearing article comprises a liquid-impervious base sheet and a liquid-absorbent panel and has a waist-hole and a pair of leg-holes. Each of the second elastic members has transversely opposite the fixed portions secured to the waist lateral zones in vicinities of the edges thereof and to the crotch lateral zones in vicinities of the edges thereof and a free portion extending in the transverse direction between the opposite fixed portions across the panel and secured neither to the base sheet nor to the panel. In the crotch lateral zones and in the lower areas of the respective waist lateral zones placed aside toward the crotch region, the free portions of the respective waist-surrounding second elastic members three-dimensionally intersect the leg-surrounding elastic members. At the crossover points of the second elastic members and the leg-surrounding elastic members, these elastic members are not secured one to another, i.e., let free one from another. The fixed portions of the second elastic members extending across the crotch region lie aside toward the edges of the crotch lateral zones relative to the leg-surrounding elastic members.
