Best Bottom Diapers
Best Bottom cloth diapers were created with all of the cloth diapering pros from all of the different cloth diapering systems, and eliminated the cons. The Best Bottom cloth diaper system is the best cloth diaper system available - offering the trimmest-fitting and very highly absorbent cloth diapers! Best Bottom diapers has simplified cloth diapering while making one of the most economical cloth diapering systems. The Best Bottom one size diapering system is not a pocket diaper, not an all in one, not a fitted diaper and not a prefold system...it is the best of all types!
| Diaper | Pros | Cons |
| Best Bottom | ALL THE PROS | --------------- |
| Pocket Diapers | Fast Drying | Have to Stuff |
| All In One Diapers | Easy to Use/Trim | Longer Drying Time |
| Fitted Diapers | Very Absorbent | Bulky |
| Prefold Diapers | Inexpensive | Bulky and Have to Fold |
How the Best Bottom Cloth Diaper System Works:
1. Adjust front snaps to achieve the size needed.
2. Snap insert into diaper.
3. Put diaper on baby and go!
4. When baby needs a diaper change snap out soiled insert and snap clean one in.
5. Put diaper on baby and go AGAIN. The Best Bottom shell is wipe-able and can be used multiple times before washing but you may want to air dry between uses but it is not necessary.
We recommend getting as many shells as your baby poos in a 2-3 day time period (for newborns count how many explosions they have!!). We have found that poo does stay on the insert most of the time but in some cases it may not (but it will stay in the diaper cover avoiding an embarassing mess!) Three different size inserts in several different materials available. We don't believe in a one size insert. Newborns and toddlers are not the same size so in order for a one size insert to absorb enough for a toddler it will be HUGE on a newborn. You may not need all three sizes of inserts and can skip the middle size - it is all up to you! We recommend approximately 24 inserts per size.
So to make it SIMPLE, you will need approx 8-10 shells and 18-24 inserts per size.
Fit:
Best Bottom cloth diapers fit from birth to 35+ lbs. Special leg gussets keep everything in, there's an adjustable rise with four settings, and they have overlapping closures for a very trim fitting cloth diaper. Please be extra careful that none of the insert is sticking out of the shell, and after the diaper is on, pull the leg gussets out around baby's legs. This will guard against leaks and help avoid any red marks.
Choice:
Available in both snap and hook & loop (Velcro) as well as yummy colors inspired by ice cream! Color coordinating snaps make for a great looking cloth diaper.

Quality:
The highest quality of materials available have been selected with as much of the raw materials made in the USA as we could find. The entire Shell is made with USA-made materials! ALL of our products are proudly handcrafted in the USA at local factories helping to support the local economy and reduce our environmental impact. We use durable snaps and hook & loop, double layer of waterproof PUL creating a perfect no-leak sturdy shell with a wipe-able inside lasting for many washes.
Options:
We offer each of our Stay Dry, Hemp/Organic Cotton, or Overnight inserts in three different sizes. Sizing is approximate and will depend on size and shape of baby as well as how heavy of a wetter.
Doubler option:
We have a cloth diaper doubler option that's perfect for heavy wetters, or for a long nap or car ride. Consisting of 2 layers of super thirsty microfiber and made to fit with any Best Bottom cloth diaper insert option of the same size. Snap in the cloth diaper Doubler and then snap a Best Bottom cloth diaper insert of your choice on top!
Easy Washing Instructions:
Before first use: shells, stay dry inserts, and overnight inserts only need to be washed one time. Hemp/Organic Cotton inserts need to be washed 4-6 times to reach full absorbency. Please note that hemp inserts will shrink slightly during first washings making them consistent with the other insert sizing. If not first wash: 1. Remove solids
2. Reuse shell until soiled or wash day. Separate shell from insert before washing. Fasten Hook & Loop laundry tabs (if applicable).
3. Rinse cold, then wash warm with 1/4-1/2 additive-free detergent and rinse (warm or cold) again.
4. Tumble dry or line dry. No fabric softeners or rash creams (if you need to use rash creams put a barrier between baby and diaper, for example a flushable liner or reusable wipe work great).
We recommend washing every 2-3 days. We have found that the Best Bottom system washes beautifully as it takes up less space in your washing machine allowing more room for agitation getting your diapers super clean.
