    Abstract: A washably reusable diaper having water wicking inner layer, a water impervious outer layer, a space in between for insertion and removal of water absorbing pad and having an elongated pocket adjacent to the waist line of the diaper a nd an elongated pocket adjacent each leg line of the diaper. Disposed proximate each end of each elongated pocket is a means for releaseably attaching an elastic strip.

  • Patent number: 6579273
    Abstract: An adjustable, form fitted, reusable diaper for infants that includes a reusable or disposable pad insertable between a soft permeable inner panel and an impermeable outer panel laminated with either a soft pile or a waterproof breathable or non-breathable elastomeric non-woven material. The diaper, having an hourglass configuration when open, is provided with expandable leg openings and waistband and fitted with hidden snap closures uniquely arranged to provide waist adjustment independently of leg opening adjustment and vise-versa. The diaper's use of a high pile, permeable inner panel such as polar fleece wicks moisture quickly away from the infants body where it is absorbed by the washable, reusable pad located between the inner and outer panels. The pad is then easily removed and replaced with a clean and dry pad, often without removal of the diaper from the infant.
