Abstract

Clothlike materials may become abraded upon disengagement of mechanical fasteners. This abrasion may cause a decrease in aesthetic appeal, as well as a decrease in functionality of attachment systems. As a result, there has remained a need for improved fastening systems. Moreover, there has remained a need for improved fastening systems for disposable absorbent articles.
