I found the down-sizing of the large size of some of the Rearz products somewhat depressing. Once upon a time, I was a medium in most products, then, I graduated to large (except in the MegaMax, where I can still wear a medium). Then, Rearz shrank their large sizes, pushing me into XL diapers that are really too big in most proportions. The issue for me is my tree trunk-like legs, at the waist, I could probably still squeeze into a medium, but my thighs make the bottom tabs fail to reach the landing zone. 

Their large size "medium-duty" diapers such as the Lil' Monsters & Splash and Bella's were perfect for daytime wearing, providing a good cruising range and fitting discretely under clothing. Their XL's hold a decent amount, for sure, but they feel big on me - they rise up my back a fair bit and and well above my belly button at the front, more like an overnight or at-home diaper. I'll get a feeling that something is rubbing or bunching half way up my back, and then realize it's my diaper, lol. I still wear them all the time, but always with a onesie if I'm leaving the house. 

I feel like ABU is doing this as well. I have no proof other than I remember being able to fit into a medium 5 or so years ago and now I feel like I'm busting at the waistband with a medium. I've gained a little bit of weight but it hasn't fluctuated that much over the recent years.

The funny yet sad part about the cloth backed diapers is it is still plastic backing just woven instead of a sheet. They all get that same damp feeling on the outside of the cover in my experience with them. If you wear a pul-pant over the top of them you notice the dampness even more as you will get water droplets inside the pul-pants. I always wear a cover over my diapers as it helps hold them in place better and helps with leaks should I have one due to not being able to change in time.
