In order to study the effect of anisotropic feature of mechanical properties of various top sheet on the fabric hand, primary hand values and total hand value (=THV) were calculated from objective evaluation equation of various top sheets. Top sheet samples were classified into three groups as air-through, spunbond, and spunbond⁄meltblow groups. It was shown that THV became higher in the case of spunbnd top sheet in machine direction (=MD). THV was evaluated subjectively and objectively in the order of spunbond, spunbond⁄meltblow, air through, spunlace, woven fabrics. THV of spunbond top sheet in MD becomes the highest from both objective and subjective evaluations.
