Organic Cloth Diapers

If you plan to use organic cloth diapers you will have several fabrics and diaper styles to choose from.

While organic cotton diapers may be the first diaper fabric that comes to mind, you may also choose from hemp diapers, bamboo diapers or organic wool diaper covers if you want to go organic.

Organic Cotton Diapers

Organic cotton diapers are popular and fairly easy to find online. Cotton tends to be softer than hemp, and organic cotton diapers are known for being more durable than traditional cotton diapers.

Popular Brands That Offer Organic Cotton Diapers

  • Imse Vimse
  • Lovey Bums
  • Kissaluvs
  • Tiny Tush
  • Swaddlebees
  • Blue Penguin
  • BumGenius
  • Sckoon

Approximate Prices

  • Prices range from about $15 to $30, depending upon the style of diaper (i.e., organic cotton all in one diapers are on the high end of the price range, while other types of organic cotton diapers can be less expensive)
  • You may also need to purchase diaper covers depending on the type of diapers you choose, so this expense should also be factored into your decision as well.

Hemp Diapers

Hemp diapers are normally made from a blend of cotton and hemp. While pesticides are not required to farm hemp (and hemp may not be labelled organic), cotton is a notoriously bad crop for pesticide use, so you will need to ensure that the cotton blended with your hemp diapers is organic cotton, if going buying organic cloth diapers is important to you.

Hemp diapers offer a lot of benefits and are becoming more widely available, and if you intend to use cloth diapers with more than one baby, hemp can be a cost effective option because it is extremely durable.

Popular Brands that Offer Hemp and Organic Cotton Diapers

  • Kissaluvs
  • Happy Heinys
  • Thirsties
  • Little Beetle
  • Chick to Cheek
    BabyKicks
  • Little Beetle
  • Blue Penguin
  • Sugar Peas

Approximate Prices

  • Prices range from about $17 to $25 for hemp and organic cotton blend diapers.

Bamboo Diapers

Bamboo diapers can be another good cloth diaper choice. Like hemp, farming bamboo does not require pesticides, which means that bamboo diapers may not carry an organic label. Bamboo is a very fast growing plant, and as a fabric, it is absorbent and has good wicking and antibacterial properties.

As with hemp diapers, bamboo diapers are often blended with cotton. If it is important to you to stick with organic cloth diapers, you'll want to ensure that the cotton used in your bamboo diapers is organic cotton (some manufacturers use traditional cotton blended with bamboo).

Popular Brands that Offer Bamboo and Organic Cotton Diapers

  • Swaddlebees
  • Sustainablebabyish
  • GoodMama
  • BabyKicks
  • Prices range from about $20 to $30 for bamboo and organic cotton blend diapers.

Organic Wool Diapers

Wool diaper covers are considered the top of the line in cloth diapers by many parents. Organic wool comes from sheep that are raised on an organic farm, and, unlike traditional wool, organic wool is not exposed to harsh chemicals in the manufacturing process.

Popular Brands that Offer Organic Wool Diaper Covers

  • Tiny Tush
  • Little Beetle
  • Sugar Peas
  • Sustainablebabyish

Approximate Prices

  • Prices range from about $28 to $40 for organic wool diaper covers.
