An absorbent belted-article comprising an absorbent pad and a separate belt to which the absorbent pad is detachably attached and which is to be placed around the waist of a wearer to hold the absorbent pad when the belted-article is being worn, wherein the absorbent pad includes a chassis which comprises a liquid-permeable top sheet and a liquid-impermeable back sheet oriented away from the wearer and an absorbent core between the top sheet and the back sheet, and wherein the absorbent pad is detachably attached to the belt by an attaching arrangement, wherein the difference in kinetic coefficients of friction between the back sheet of the absorbent pad and an outwardly oriented surface of the belt is 0.5 at maximum, wherein the kinetic coefficient of friction of the back sheet of the absorbent pad and a surrounding material and the kinetic coefficient of friction of the outwardly oriented surface of the belt and said surrounding material, respectively, are measured with ASTM D 1894-08 standard, and the back sheet of the absorbent pad and the outwardly oriented surface of the belt are formed of different type of materials.
