Modern Cloth: What's New?
COVERS: Gone are the days of sweaty PVC covers! Improved materials are used today (polar fleece, nylon, wool & Polyurethane Laminates or PUL) that are easy to maintain and keep mess in while allowing your baby's skin to breathe. Covers can either be pull-up or use fasteners such as hook & loop (Velcro®) or snaps.

LINERS: Liners help to keep baby dry and make disposing of solid waste far easier. They are made of microfleece - an inexpensive material that is durable and easy to clean. Alternatively you might choose a biodegradable or flushable liner.

FITTED: Fitted nappies are shaped, ensuring no leaks and a comfortable fit. They typically have elastic in the legs and waist and most have hook & loop or snap fasteners attached. They come in a range of sizes or a one-size-fits-all style, in hemp, bamboo & cotton. Fitted Nappies are adjustable and are typically used with a cover.

ALL-IN-ONE: A shaped absorbent nappy with a waterproof cover built-in, the all-in-one is fastened with either hook & loop or snaps. Like the fitted nappy, these come in various sizes from birth to toddler, with some being one-size so they grow with your baby. The ready-to-go option.

POCKET NAPPIES: Similar to the all-in-one, pocket nappies are a cover and liner sewn together to form (as the name suggests) a pocket. The pocket is stuffed with an absorbent material (a flat nappy or a pre-sewn stuffer) to give the convenience of an all-in-one, with variable absorbency and a fraction of the drying time.
