Microfiber: This is the standard insert that comes along with most cloth diapers. It is a synthetic fibre. It is known for its quick absorbency qualities. Microfibre, although very soft, cannot touch the baby’s skin as it is a potential irritant.

Which is the best size for newborn prefolds?
We made the Newborn Orange edge size to be the perfect newborn prefold.

Is it better to use prefolds or flats?
Most people who exclusively use flats and prefolds don’t have the same washing woes that plague some cloth diaper users. If you have to hand wash or use a Laundromat, this is probably the way to go.

What’s the name of the brand of prefold diapers?
Also affectionately known around the web as “GMD Prefolds”, but the brand name is actually Cloth-eez®. Size small yellow edge prefolds are too long to fit in most newborn size covers. Most newborn babies really do need newborn diapers!
