Inserts & Doublers

Diaper inserts and doublers make cloth diapers absorbent! There are several different types and each has its advantage and uses.

• Cotton:  Very absorbent, organic cotton available, often blended with other fibers
• Hemp:  More absorbent than cotton, very durable, has natural anti-bacterial/anti-microbial properties, trim fitting
• Microfiber:  A polyester blend fabric, absorbs very quickly, inexpensive, dries quickly, durable. Microfiber should not be placed directly against baby's skin as it will dry out baby's skin and leave it chapped. Microfiber inserts should be topped with a stay-dry material, natural fiber, or stuffed in a pocket.
• Stay Dry:  Any material of insert that is topped with a stay-dry material. Stay-dry materials such a fleece or suede cloth wick moisture away from baby's skin, keeping them feeling dry.
• Bamboo:  More absorbent than cotton, very durable, has natural anti-bacterial/anti-microbial properties, super soft, a renewable resource and naturally biodegradable
  

Inserts come in many different combinations of these fabrics, many different sizes, and many different thicknesses. Nicki's Diapers is sure to have the type that works best for your baby.
