If you love wool but want something a little less bulky than a thick wool soaker during the day, you will love these nappy pants! These are the thinnest, most lightweight wool diaper covers we have found, and they work wonderfully well. These breathable wool shorts are so trim that you can fit any garment over them with hardly any bulk at all. They are trim but still have the absorbency and moisture-repelling properties of wool. This merino wool cover is very thin, lightweight and single-knit, so it is ideal for daytime use and is great for hot summer days. This cover fits nicely over any pre-fold or fitted cloth diaper. Because this is a single knit, thin wool cover, we do not recommend using this during naps or overnight. You will need to change the cover more frequently than you would with a thick, double-knit wool cover. This particular cover is not designed for night time or nap time use, but rather for daytime use and times when you are able to change your baby's diaper on a regular basis. Please keep in mind that wool is not waterproof like synthetic covers, but it is extremely absorbent and contains lanolin, which naturally repels moisture. This cover will stay dry longer the thicker and more absorbent the cloth diaper layer is underneath. Wool provides excellent moisture regulation; it wicks moisture away from the skin and can absorb up to one third of its weight in moisture and return it to the environment. In addition, it does not soil or retain odors easily, so it does not need to be washed very frequently. Made by Engel, these nappy covers are 100% virgin Merino wool, certified by the International Association of Natural Textile Industry (IVN) and the Global Textile Standard. This wool is finely crimped, does not itch, and feels soft and cozy against baby's sensitive skin. The Merino sheep are ally raised without the use of pesticides on neither the pastures nor the animals.
