This is probably the trimmest fitting pocket diaper you will ever find. The crotch area has been cut narrow to reduce unnecessary bulk between the baby’s legs, yet still leaves enough room to stuff with as much inserts as needed. The leg openings are highly adjustable to especially accommodate both slim and chubby thighed babies. Separate waist and thigh settings allow you to adjust each opening independently to ensure a snug fit. A layer of microfleece is used to provide a dry barrier between the velour top layer and the insert. Organic cotton velour is used as the top layer of the diaper for its hypoallergenic properties. Natural cotton is one of the least allergenic materials known to man. It is also one of the most moisture absorbent materials there is. The result is a diaper that quickly absorbs moisture and wicks it from the baby’s body to hold it away in the insert used. The fact that microfleece or suedecloth is not directly in contact with the baby’s skin enables those who are sensitive to those materials to use this diaper and still get an almost stay dry effect. The diaper will not feel as dry as one that is lined with polyester, but it will not feel as wet as an all-cotton diaper. Because of the cotton’s inherent absorbent qualities, should the microfleece layer ever experience buildup, liquid will be absorbed first by the cotton velour layer instead of just rolling off the sides and immediately causing leaks. Thirsties and Swaddlebees form the perfect partnership as Thirsties Inserts are also very trim and are contoured to fit nicely in the narrowed middle of Swaddlebees Pocket Diapers. |
