Topic: Roll out fleece Posted: 13 May 2008 at 8:55pm |
What do they mean exactly when they say roll out fleece around the legs? Does it mean that there is fleece visible around the leg from the outside rather than just seeing the PUL cover?
I hope that makes sense

Roll out fleece means that there's no row of stitching around the legs holes. Does that make sense?

It's the difference between the legs on Fuzzi Bunz vs Foxybots. Fuzzis have stitched down leg holes but Foxys don't. Do you know what I mean by the difference in these 2?

I don't have Fuzzis or any Foxybots yet so I'm not sure what you mean. Can you actually see the fleece from the outside of the nappy?

A little, but not too much. DryBees and HH's are roll out fleece as well.

You wouldn't notice the fleece from the outside if you weren't looking. It sits right on the seam, the inside of the seam being fleece and the outside being PUL or whatever waterproof fabric you use. I really like 'roll out' fleece on my chubby toddler as I think it's more comfortable

What nappies do you have. Tweedle do roll out fleece and fuzzi's and HC are stitched down. It is a lot nicer on their thighs.

I have itti bitti dlish and bumgenius. I think the dlish might have the roll out fleece from what you describe.
I was wondering if one was 'better' than the other but it sounds like the rolled out ones are a bit friendlier. Are there any benefits to having the legs seams stitched down then?

I don't think either one is better they both have their uses. I prefer rollout fleese for night time but stitched down during the day.
Some people prefer rollout to stitched down and vice versa.

I've tried both and prefer stitched down as I think they contain the #2s better (especially with little bubbies), we never had any luck with roll out fleece at any stage/age

dlish are roll out.
We find most stitched down types leave waaaay more red marks on thighs and can more easily gape around the legs especially if its a night nappy that is stuffed with lots of inserts.

I like roll out too. Much softer on babies thighs. It works well on both my kids!

That's a good point Stacey - roll out fleece usually alloows more room for stuffing inserts which does help with leg gaping, especially at night or for heavy-wetters.
I think it's one of those things like velcro vs poppers - everyone has their own personal preference for different reasons! I have both stitch down and roll out fleece and I use both - I just prefer the softness of roll out (but haven't used either pre-5mths!).

Depends what nappy you use as none are created equal, roll out or stitch down
