Tail Feathers FUSION

Since I thought the Fly Baby AIOs were so cool, I had to try a FUSION from Tail Feathers Diapers. These also combine the pocket and AIO ideas. Check out the lovely diaper Rachel made for me:

I picked gray PUL because neutral colors look good on babies, and because I've looked for gray at other WAHM sites and not found it. Rachel suggested the delightful striped microfleece. The best part is the snaps, which are all mix-and-match colors that coordinate with the interior.

That's what the diaper looks like turned inside out. See the built-in microfiber layer on the inside of the pocket. The Flip'n'Fly has this layer AND a built-in insert. The FUSION has only the microfiber layer. Treated as an AIO, it is trim, with limited absorbency. If more absorbency is preferred, stick an insert into the pocket.

This is a more flexible diaper than the Flip'n'Fly, and more affordable (under $20 with shipping). For more absorbency, though, the FUSION will require assembly with a separate insert. Turnaround on this custom was blindingly fast (faster than in-stock shipping at plenty of places). I'll let you know more after we get to try it on a baby bigger than Evelyn's doll.
