Fitted Diapers & Prefolds

Fitted diapers offer great absorbency and come in a range of materials including bamboo and cotton. They feature elastic gatherings around the leg and a snap or aplix (Velcro) closure. Fitteds are particularly wonderful for newborns, nighttime use, or heavy-wetters and require a waterproof diaper cover overtop.

Prefold diapers are rectangular in shape with more layers of material in the middle than the sides. They are typically made of cotton or cotton/hemp blends. You can use a snappi (the non pricking “diaper pin”) or simply fold the prefold in three and place it inside a diaper cover. Prefolds are often called a workhorse diaper – they are affordable and long-lasting. You can also use prefolds as an insert in pocket diapers.
