fleece

Fleece makes for a very soft, comfortable wrap and although fleece is not inherently waterproof it is ultra absorbent and great for night time use.

How do fleece wraps work? Although fleece wraps have no waterproof layer the fleece effectively stops wet getting through. In addition to acting as a water resistant barrier, because fleece is breathable and therefore lets lots of air circulate around the nappy, the nappy inside should acutally be less wet than the same nappy inside a PUL wrap.

The good air circulation is great for the skin and you won't find a hint of sweatiness or overheating with either fleece or wool wraps when used overnight - even in excess of 12 hours!

Because the wraps work by slow evaporation and air circulation they do need to be a roomy fit to work at their best. Tight clothes, pyjamas or sleepsuits poppered tightly under the crotch can all cause 'compression wicking', pulling wet through the fleece as it is squashed against the wet nappy inside.

Having a wrap that is too big is always preferable to a tight one and as long as the legs and waist are a reasonably snug fit you shouldn't get leaks even if the wrap is quite loose through the body.

tots bots - red rap
This is a lovely soft wrap, ideal for night time.

It has an integral leg design without gussets and fastens with aplix making it super adjustable and suitable for using over pretty much any shaped nappy or folded terry square. The fleece is so soft you'll never find marks on your baby's legs in the morning.

The size 0 has been designed specifically with the newborn in mind and it's great used over a folded muslin or simply with a tots deluxe booster inside. As it's cut very slim it's not suitable to use over most shaped nappies - if this is your intention buy size 1 straight off!

The red rap is bulky but incredibly soft and cuddly.

Fleece is remarkably water resistant and even if your baby is a very heavy wetter and goes through the night in one nappy you'll hardly ever find dampness on the outside in the morning.

It's washable at 40 degrees and dries very quickly on an airer or the washing line.

If washed hotter the fleece will be more liable to pill (bobble) although as far as we can tell performance is not affected. Also, fleece will pick up lint from fabrics with pile so avoid washing with towels etc. if you want it to stay pristine! It will also lose some colour when first washed so avoid washing in with white nappies...
