The Best Adult Cloth Diapers: Reusable And Resilient
Reusable cloth diapers are a great alternative to disposable ones. Whether you’re looking for a traditional, classic style flat cloth diaper, a more modern hourglass-shape contoured cloth diaper, or an easy-on, easy-off pull-up cloth diaper, we have you covered.
It’s not easy to manage incontinence. Thankfully, there are dozens of different protection products on the market from which you can choose, but this can also be a double-edged sword; there’s often so many different choices that you don’t know where you should even begin. This can make an already difficult process just that much more frustrating and disheartening, especially when you’re already dealing with incontinence in the first place.
Well, it’s time to take some of the guesswork out of choosing adult incontinence products. Welcome to our quick and easy guide on adult diapers - more specifically adult cloth diapers. Here you’ll learn about how they work, how they differ from other products such as disposable diapers, and the different benefits and drawbacks that adult cloth diapers offer someone who struggles with incontinence issues.
How a Cloth Diaper Works
Cloth diapers are nothing new - they’ve been around a very long time. Usually made from flannel, terrycloth, or cotton, these diapers feature are designed to fit the wearer snugly and comfortably against the skin and come in different sizes for different individuals. The biggest feature of an adult cloth diaper, however, is that they’re reusable; you can wash the diaper and reuse it repeatedly. This is both a cost-effective option as well as one that’s more environmentally-friendly as well. Also, it’s important to note that while you can fit reusable adult undergarments to people of all sizes rather easily, they are often difficult and cumbersome to change.
How They Differ From Disposable Diapers
When you compare a washable diaper made from cloth with one that’s designed to be disposable, the differences come clear immediately. A one-use diaper is meant to be thrown out after being worn, so they’re not washable or reusable in any way. Because of the materials these diapers are made with, they also offer better absorbency than a cloth adult diaper, which means they will keep you dry better. That being said, they are not nearly as economical a choice, as you need to keep buying these diapers as you can’t reuse them. This also leads to additional waste that needs to be disposed of.
