What is the plastic tab on the diaper pants?Updated 4 months ago

The diaper pants are designed to easily tear off on the sides when you need to take them off (so you don't need to pull them down and create a mess). The plastic tab is actually a little piece of tape that allows you to close the diaper up when you're taking it off, so you can roll it up and use the tape to seal it closed. 

The 'open diapers' have tabs that serve that function, so on the pants, it has the added tab for that.
