Zusammenfassung:	An elastic web that can be made breathable upon application of a tensile force such as would be encountered in certain applications, such as in absorbent articles and other hygienic or non-hygienic articles, and bandages is described. Breathability is achieved by insertion into the web of slits whose open area increases upon application of a force on the web acting along the major axis of said slits.
