Thirsties cloth diapers have improved on their already great product line!
Gone is the hook & loop of old that was smaller, on the weak side and wore out way too soon.
Hello new hook & loop!
today Thirsties released their brand new hook and loop that is not only wider but is STRONGER and MORE DURABLE!
From the Thirsties blog:
We spent the majority of this year in quest of a hook & loop that has a longer life cycle and is stronger than what is currently available on the market. We have found what we believe to be the strongest and most durable hook and loop on the market – making the convenience of this closure option even more attractive.
We have increased the size of the bullets in order to provide additional surface area for improved hold. While we were at it, we also increased the size of the laundry tab to ensure that the hook doesn’t detach during the wash cycle and get caught on other garments in the wash, resulting in broken hooks and decreased performance. The increased size will yield improvement in the following areas.
You can purchase the new hook & loop diapers NOW at many of the Thirsties retailers. I would love it if you chose to shop at any of my amazing sponsors. Currently, Kissed by the Moon has the new style up on their site.
Thirsties is giving one of you the opportunity to win one hook & loop diaper of your choice. Free!
Fill out the Rafflecopter form below and I will choose the winner next Wednesday, October 9, 2013.

Autumn is a wife, mother, homeschool teacher, friend and most important a follower of Christ.
