    • Now that you mention this, i think I've been told this before.  I had a look at the other one.  Labelled a Tena "maxi" it is very definitely cloth backed (with all of the attendant damp/sag).  It does have a single leak guard either side but it's quite low at around 15mm or so.  The tapes aren't too bad which is ironic because taking them off is something you'd be doing quite a bit peeing in these.  With a tare weight of 170g or so, it's obvious that there's not much inside them anyway. One of the perennial challenges of life in Australia is that multi-nationals almost invariably lump our market in as "Asia/Pacific" or similar which means we can often get product designed for extremely price-sensitive markets that might be less concerned about quality although by some miracle, the prices get marked up to European levels or beyond anyway... I had a full "crash kit": enough to change out of a catastrophic nappy fail and wet jeans but I've never had to use it. The Murphy zone in my brain tells me I'd need it moments after discarding it. I've updated the emergency nappies to some spare Molicares of (slightly) more recent vintage.  I see no reason to sacrifice expensive Rearz/InControl product for time capsules. Pretty much ALL the 3" nappy pins I prefer are now plastic headed and completely useless 😟  The plastic splits within a few uses: an excellent example of enshittification whereby a well-understood, effective and low cost technology that has been around for probably nearly a century (stainless steel safety pins) is turned to rubbish by "progress". I find the gauge on "blanket pins" to be too thick to easily penetrate terry toweling without inflicting trauma on the material.  
    • For daytime use I have loads of old Babykins pull-up cotton/terry nappies.  I also use the Rearz Omutsu or Babykins DPF cloth diaper with extra padding.  These are usually worn under Babykins encased plastic pants and a compression pant. At night when I'm more concerned about managing leakage than bulk I'll either used pinned terry squares (kite folded) or Rearz pre-fold night nappies under larger Gary "high waist" plastic pants. I'd like to try the new Rearz Omutsu v2 but they are unavailable down here.  Even the v1 Omutsu have been "out of stock" at the sole supplier of them for months and months now.
    • Interesting, they have a vintage baby diaper vibe to them.  
    • Sometimes I fluff and sometimes I don't but I do think I need to start fluffing more.
