Classic Reusable Cloth Nappy V1.0 | Rainbow Realm

These are also known as the "Alcmena V1.5 Pocket Nappies". They inspired the original Monarch Classics (i.e. Classic V1.0s).  

The Classic nappy is a trim-fitting pocket cloth nappy that is a firm favourite with new and experienced cloth users alike!

The Classic Nappy is most similar to a disposable nappy, both in terms of fit and use! But instead of throwing it in the bin, you put it aside to wash and reuse - great for your wallet, great for the planet! 

Features Of The Classic Reusable Nappy

• Organic Fibres for Superior Absorbency: This nappy comes with 1-layers of organic fibre absorbency, consisting of:
• 1x 5-layer Hemp-Cotton; and
• 1x 5-layer Bamboo-Cotton.

How much absorbency do I need? Refer to our Inserts Absorbency Chart to compare the absorbency of the Classic nappy with your child's output.

• Customisable: Snap / stuff / tuck as many inserts as you need, depending on your little one's output! If you need more, grab some extras inserts! 

• Stay-dry lining: The interior of the nappy shell is lined with Athletic Wicking Jersey ("AWJ") which is a superior material at drawing away moisture and keeping bub's bottom cool and dry. 

• Double-ended pocket openings: Wide openings at each end of the nappy make it super easy to stuff your inserts into the pocket! 

• Tummy elastic: A tummy elastic to close any tummy gap and give you additional leak protection for tummy sleepers. 

• Internal double gussets: Built-in double gussets on the AWJ pocket lining help to channel moisture into the core of the nappy (so it can be absorbed by the inserts). 

• PUL tummy and back flaps: Waterproof front and back flaps to keep the moisture from sitting against bub's stomach and back for extended periods of time.

Caring For Your Reusable Nappy

• Machine-washable, no hotter than 60 degrees Celcius (any hotter will deteriorate the waterproofing of the nappy)
• Inserts can be dried in the dryer or line-dry under the sun
• Nappy outer can be dried in the dryer but ONLY on low-heat OR we recommend line drying in the shade to preserve the useful life of the nappy shell
