warpiper Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I think that most breathable diapers suck for the most part. 1 Link to comment
Missy Q Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 I can't stand breathable diapers at all. If it isn't plastic-backed then I don't have much interest in it. 2 Link to comment
Nat Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 It's generation. Lot of us grew up with plastic diapers so we prefer them but someday in the future there will be cloth like AB/DL diapers because the new AB/DL generation would have grown up with it. Link to comment
erevu Posted March 26, 2016 Share Posted March 26, 2016 ABUniverse has a "cloth backed" version of their Cushies diapers. Perhaps you should try those. Link to comment

Codyboy Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 Use plenty of baby powder and plastic backed disposables won't chafe your legs. I wear disposable plastic backed diapers 24/7 for as long as I was alive and never had an issue, even playing ice hockey and inline skating. Link to comment
drynot Posted March 28, 2016 Share Posted March 28, 2016 I find that cloth backed diapers tend to "grip" onto stuff way to easy whereas plastic backed diapers slide. Link to comment
Dartplayerinwvc Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Attends makes cloth backed and so does Depends... If its not white and plastic backed diaper I wont wear it. 1970s Pamper fan here. Link to comment

Rani Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 For me it depends on what I'm doing. Noisy plastic backed is best when I'm on my own (or with someone who is ok with the crinkle), but the quiet fabric backed is best for going out and about in. That way I'm not intruding on others with any noise, which is important to me. Link to comment

Luckily, institutional diapers remain plastic - not to mention cheaper to make, so I suspect we don't have much to worry about. God I feel old. I'm not even 30. Ugh. Don't worry that just the first of many times that you will feel old I'm pretty sure that plastic backed diapers aren't going anywhere. Link to comment
Wainwright Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 My experience with breathable diapers has always been bad, even though I'm part of that youngest generation, I have no desire to use them. The Abri-Form AirPlus was the first breathable diaper I tried... It was Link to comment
raith Posted April 13, 2016 Share Posted April 13, 2016 Me i first tried the Walgreen brand which has a cloth outer cover, I just recently purchased my first pack of bambino Bianco's. And it has a plastic outer shell, I am actually sweating less in the Bianco than I did the Walgreens brand. Link to comment

wetatnight Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I hate the cloth like ones myself, but I believe the cloth like Cushies by ABU are the only cloth like adult baby diaper currently available I think most ab/dl's prefer the plastic covered diapers Link to comment
billy1234 Posted April 24, 2016 Share Posted April 24, 2016 I hate cloth like the nappies I get now have plastic backing down the middle with cloth like side panels I have lost weight recently but I'm not switching down a size because now the tapes actually hit the plastic part and stay stuck and I don't end up with a droopy nappy (till it gets wet that is) Link to comment
Dirty Diaper/Maxipad Lover Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 I'm pretty sure I mentioned this in another thread here, but breathable baby diapers and breathable adult diapers are manufactured differently. Breathable baby diapers work because they have a plastic backsheet under the cloth-like cover. Breathable adult diapers, (at least every one that I've come across) lacks the plastic backsheet making them utterly useless unless you're just wearing them without intending to use them, (which to be fair, some AB/DLs do,) and that makes them utterly undesirable to the vast majority of AB/DLs. I think you'd probably see a mix of plastic and cloth-like cover fans in the AB/DL community if the cloth-like covered adult products were remotely useful for the members of this community. As much as I like cloth-like baby diapers, I hate cloth-like adult diapers because they're just designed terribly. I'd probably have a different opinion of them if they were just like larger versions of cloth-like baby diapers. Anything larger than GoodNites tends to be built terribly if it has a cloth-like backing though. Link to comment
stevewet Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 For me the most important thing is they take a lot of urine before they start to leak. I wear plastic or nylon inco pants over my nappies anyway so if the crinkle it doesn't matter my pants usually do anyway. Link to comment
gah!ghost Posted May 4, 2016 Share Posted May 4, 2016 Not AB printed or anything but the only cloth back I have found to be worth a damn are the Seni line. They're still not as reliable as plastic backed but they're pretty decent. Link to comment

Anything larger than GoodNites tends to be built terribly if it has a cloth-like backing though. I too have had trouble with leaky breathable adult diapers but figured that the problem was that the plastic backsheet is not wide enough. I just pulled apart a generic adult cloth like disposable. It did have a plastic backsheet inside the outer cloth sheet BUT it only covered the center of the diaper going about a inch wider than the padding. This is a problem since any moisture that doesn't stay in the padded area as when you sleep on your side will leak. The better cloth backed disposables will have a wider plastic backsheet meaning less chance for leaking. (My solution is to wear a thin cloth pullup diaper and plastic pants over them. No leaks for me. Link to comment

Dirty Diaper/Maxipad Lover Posted May 7, 2016 Share Posted May 7, 2016 I'll have to dissect another breathable adult diaper when I get my hands on one DenvrDiaper. The first few that I pulled apart just had no noticeable backsheet. With breathable baby diapers, it's a whole "shell" that covers any area that has padding over it, not just the center, but front to back and edge to edge save for the sides where there's nothing for it to be the back of. That design can work, but just a little plastic over one part isn't going to cut it, which seems to be what most breathable adult diapers are doing. For AB/DL diapers, it would actually be interesting to see someone take the 90's route of putting cloth-like backing over a purely plastic diaper. It would probably cost a fortune, but it would give you the best of both designs without the worry about leaks. I have to agree with diapercal though, having to wear plastic pants over a cloth-like diaper seems kind of self-defeating. For someone into plastic pants this could be great, but for someone who just wants a functional diaper, it seems kind of backwards. Link to comment
