Prefold cloth diapers are popular for their affordability and are the most common diaper supplied by cloth diaper services. Though they don't share all the bells and whistles as other more modern cloth diapers, they have their definite and permanent place in the industry and they have been proven dependable and economical.

However, Thirsties Duo Hemp Prefolds are no ordinary prefold! Typical prefolds are bulky and take a long time to dry. When hung to dry, they can become stiff and crunchy. In addition, most prefolds are 8 layers thick in the middle, which makes it difficult to clean all layers of the diaper thoroughly.  Thirsties Duo Hemp Prefolds are designed to allow water and air to flow through the 2 layer thick panels, permitting thorough cleansing with little effort and quick drying times.  When trifolded the prefold provides 12 total layers of soft and thirsty hemp-cotton!

Thirsties Duo Hemp Prefold stands out further by offering innovative expandable coverage that grows with your little one. This minimizes the need for multiple sizes (only two needed!) from birth to potty training.

Our custom-tailored hemp jersey is as soft as your favorite t-shirt and it's knitted with love right here in the USA. Hemp is an ideal diaper fabric as it displays antimicrobial properties, is many times more durable, and is more absorbent than cotton. In fact, our hemp jersey is 25% more absorbent than a prefold of the same weight made from cotton alone! This translates into a very trim and effective cloth diaper with a hefty amount of absorbing power.

Complete your Duo Hemp Prefold by pairing it with Thirsties Duo Wrap. Thirsties Duo Wraps are a waterproof outer layer that can be wiped clean between changes.  We recommend that your stash includes 1 Duo Wrap for every 3 Duo Hemp Prefolds in rotation.  This winning combination provides an affordable, reliable, and slim-fitting system that exceeds expectations.

Before Using your Diapers: 

01. Invest in some cloth diaper safe laundry detergent that won’t leave a residue on the fibers of your diapers.  There are many options but a popular choice that you can find locally is Tide Free + Gentle.  Search online for Cloth Diaper Detergent Index to find a detergent that works for you. 

02. Prep-wash:  Wash and dry all of your new Thirsties products with detergent and warm water before use.

Washing Soiled Diapers:
typically every other day

01.  Wash on a Quick Wash cycle on warm with detergent to ‘pre-wash’ your Thirsties.

02.  Add more detergent and wash with hot water on a Heavy Duty Cycle with an extra rinse. Add washing soda or Calgon if you have very hard water.

03.  Hang dry in the sun whenever and wherever possible.  Alternatively, dry in dryer on medium-high heat for about 60-75 minutes until fully dry.  Add dryer balls for quicker drying.

Yep -- its really that easy!  But if you are the type of person who loves some really solid over explaining, you can find our comprehensive care instructions in our Customer Center -> Care and Use.
