An absorbent article having a longitudinal axis, a transverse axis, a topsheet; a backsheet; an acquisition layer disposed between the topsheet and backsheet; first and second absorbent layers is described. The topsheet and acquisition layer form a three dimensional substrate having a first surface and an opposing second surface, a plurality of recesses and a plurality of land areas, wherein each recess is separated from one another by at least one land area, and wherein each of the plurality of recesses has an opening at a base of the recess, and side walls extending from the second surface to a distal portion. The first absorbent layer is disposed between the acquisition layer and backsheet and has a mixture of pulp and synthetic fibers. The second absorbent layer is disposed between the first absorbent layer and backsheet and has super absorbent polymer attached to a core wrap. |
