The Classic nappy is a trim-fitting, yet absorbent 'pocket' cloth nappy that is a firm favourite with new and experienced cloth users alike!
You can use them as a Day, Nap-time, Night or even Swim nappy by simply customising the inserts!
Features:
- Excellent absorbency: Each Classic nappy comes with 1x 5-layer Bamboo and 1x 5-layer Hemp inserts.
- Customisable: Snap / stuff / tuck as many inserts as you need, depending on your little one's output! If you need more, grab some extras!
- Stay-dry lining: The interior of the nappy shell is lined with Athletic Wicking Jersey ("AWJ") which is a superior material at drawing away moisture and keeping bub's bottom cool and dry.
- Double-ended pocket openings: Wide openings at each end of the nappy make it super easy to stuff your inserts into the pocket!
- Tummy elastic: A tummy elastic to close any tummy gap and give you additional leak protection for tummy sleepers.
- Internal double gussets: Built-in double gussets on the AWJ pocket lining help to channel moisture into the core of the nappy (so it can be absorbed by the inserts).
- PUL tummy and back flaps: Waterproof front and back flaps to keep the moisture from sitting against bub's stomach and back for extended periods of time.
- One-Size-Fits-Most ("OSFM"): Monarch have increased the wing length to give you even longer wear out of your Classic nappies, whilst still giving you a trim fit.
Features: front snaps, rise snaps, hip snaps, double entry pocket, double gussets, tummy elastic

Your wash | dry routine is integral to maintaining the lifespan of your nappies and helps to keep your nappies in tip top condition.
Below is a generic outline only and we recommend that you follow the wash instructions specified by each brand and read all about what NOT to use on your cloth nappies!
Washing your new nappies? Read what to do here.

* Note: Some brands recommend rinsing all nappies as soon as they come off to help prevent the build-up of ammonia smell
* Night nappies tend to be the smelliest due to the higher concentration and quantity of urine they withhold. A thorough hand-rinse in hot water with detergent, in the morning, is recommended *(but here at TCS we do our daily prewash as soon as the morning nappies come off to avoid this step) *


*Removes bulk of soiling here to allow the main wash to be done in clean water.
*Most brands recommend a daily pre-wash on the nappies used within the last 24hrs
*A full load is recommended for the best agitation and clean. Pad out the load with tea towels or clothing if required.
*Most brands recommend a main wash every other day
*A full load is recommended for the best agitation and clean. Pad out the load with tea towels or clothing if required.
* If you follow a good wash routine and wash at the correct temperatures, then barrier creams will wash out! More details here.
Detergent: Most of our stocked brands recommend a good quality main stream detergent. Here at TCS we alternate between OMO Ultimate, OMO Sensitive & Biozet Attack Regular Laundry Liquids.....whatever happens to be on sale at the time! Woolworths and Coles regularly offer half price sales on these brands so keep your eye out for the sales. Prefer a more natural solution? Then look no further than Kin Kin Eco Laundry liquid which is available here.
