Traditional versus Better Fit

Traditional Fit prefold cloth diapers can be secured to baby with diaper pins, Snappi Fasteners or placed in diaper cover and trifolded (sides folded over the middle) with the extra length then folded over in front or back for additional absorbency.  See the first 2 pictures below.  Many additional ways of folding these diapers can be found such as the angel wing fold, the bikini twist and others.  These versitile work horses have been the standard since prefold diapers replace flat diapers in the late 1960's. Better Fit diapers are sized to fit diaper covers when a simple trifold is used.  See first picture below.  This results in a less bulky and more comfortable fit.  They are 2.5 inches shorter in the infant size and 4.5 inches shorter than the regular sized traditional prefolds.  The regular sized Better Fit can also be used as a medium size between the traditional infant and regular/premium sizes.
