Sizing Help
About our Products
Our products are ethically made in BC, Canada. We use undyed organic merino wool that hasn't been through the superwash process - which allows it to felt, making it perfect wool cloth diapering.
Shorties
We have a large range of sizes in our shorties so you can find the perfect fit for your baby's needs. You don't necessarily need every size. You can skip sizes depending on how your baby grows. Some little ones get long and thing, while others get chunkier first.
When designing the shorties, Andrea and I (Lindsay) had babies close in age but different body types. My twins were born at 36 weeks, were slow to gain weight at first and after a brief and adorable chunky stage were more long and lean. Andrea's was deliciously chunky and outgrew most fitteds at 18 months. Naturally, we wanted to have options that would work for all of them.
Starting from Birth
XS: This is a great option for those who plan on cloth diapering right away. It's also good for those who have smaller babies, or multiples (twins, triplets, etc.) who are born early and can stay smaller for longer.
S: If you typically have larger babies you could skip the XS and start with S. If you're not going to cloth diaper right away ( and use disposables for the first month or so), you may want to start with S instead of XS.

| M | 15-22 lbs | |
| L | 20-30 lbs | |
| XL | 28lbs + | Thinner babies likely won’t need this size and will max out at large. |
Daytime vs. Nighttime
The difference between our daytime and nighttime versions is in the rise.
The daytime fit is particularly good for flats and prefolds (fitteds tend to be bigger), and thin to average-built babies.
The nighttime version has a significantly higher rise which accommodates for the extra boosters and bulk you may need to stuff your overnight diapers with.
The nighttime version is also a good option for babies with rounder bottoms. My sister used our nighttime shorties for both day and night because her daughter had a thicker build.
The nighttime version has a special place in our hearts because it's why the shorties exist. After I made my sister the first pair of Longies, she requested something to make it through the night leak-free. It needed to be a high enough rise that you could fit the biggest bulkiest diaper underneath and still have a comfortable baby. Her baby nursed ~all night loooong~ I made it with three layers of wool, and so the ultimate nighttime solution was born!
