An elasticated material comprising: a first layer of material; a second layer of material bonded to the first layer of material by a first pair of bonds comprising a first bond and a second bond and a second pair of bonds comprising a third bond and a fourth bond; and an elastomeric strand extending in a lateral direction and disposed between the first layer of material and the second layer of material, wherein the first pair of bonds and the second pair of bonds are spaced apart along the elastomeric strand, wherein the first bond and the third bond are located on a first side of the elastomeric strand and the second bond and the fourth bond are located on a second side of the elastomeric strand, wherein the first bond is located opposite the second bond across the elastomeric strand and separated by a longitudinal distance less than an un-tensioned diameter of the elastomeric strand.
