What nappy should I choose?

We thought that it would be useful to have a table explaining what type of nappy is what at a glance. 

All of our nappies have descriptions on their pages. Not all of our products are shown on this page. These are just examples. 

We hope this helps! Especially if you are new to using cloth nappies.

 

All In One 

 

 

 

 

 

A nappy with the absorbency sewn onto the water resistant outer. No prep needed it’s ready to go. Some come with poppers (snaps) others come with Velcro.

All in two

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

A nappy with the absorbency insert separate to the water resistant outer. The absorbent part of these nappies secure in to the outer waterproof shell. Most secure in the shell with poppers. These can generally be removed and the shell reused a number of times. These are good for fast drying as the absorbent part of the Nappy can be removed and air dried seperate from the shell.
