Cloth Diapering

Cloth diapers are practical and can be made from natural fibres, synthetic materials, or a combination of both. They are often made from cotton which may be bleached white or left in the fibre’s natural colour. Synthetic materials such as an internal absorbent layer of microfiber toweling or an external waterproof layer of polyurethane laminate (PUL) may be used. Polyester fleece and faux suedecloth are often used inside cloth diapers as a "stay-dry" wicking liner, to prevent the baby from getting nappy rashes from the urine which is not usually soaked up by the inner layers.
