I recently had the opportunity to review a SoftBums, Echo shell, Super DryTouch pod soaker and Mini DryTouch Pod. I was intrigued to find that this one size diaper uses Slide2Size drawstring toggles on their leg elastic instead of rise snaps. Just like a toggle drawstring on a sweater, you pinch the toggle and slide it up the elastic until you get the perfect size, The toggle grips the elastic well and doesn’t slip. I know some peope have an issue with their babies legs being too small for the elastic, causing leaks, or too legs too chubby that end up getting big red marks from tight elastic, they have trouble finding diapers that fit! The SoftBums Echo diaper would be perfect for those petite and chubby babies! It has smooth waterproof outter fabric and soft cuddly microfleece inner material, their DryTouch pod soakers are made of super absorbant microfiber with the soft microfleece lining it to protect baby’s sensitive skin and keep it dry. It is also extra long so you just fold it under a smaller baby to fit, plus giving extra absorbancy, or just leave it longer to fit a bigger child! I also got a DryTouch Mini pod that can be used for smaller babies without the extra bulk, and they work great as an extra soaker!
I was excited to try it out and admittedly tried it on my baby for size before putting it in the wash. Thanks to the Slide2Size elastic, the Echo diaper fit my 13 month old perfectly, and I was pleased to find that this diaper also fit my 2-year-old just fine by adjusting the elastic and extra long soaker! It felt very light and trim on both of them, and I loved how it wasn’t too bulky in the front like some one size diapers can be with their front adjustment snaps. The two weeks I’ve used the Echo diaper and insert, I have not had any leaks, it can hold a lot of liquid with no problems!
Softbums Echo diaper comes in nine great colors, with prints coming soon! Another great diaper they sell is the Omni, which is a three in one! SoftBums also offers package deals that outfit you with as many shells and soakers you need for a couple of days, as well as trial packs that give you a couple diapers to try out before making a big commitment on the larger stash.
I am happy to announce that SoftBums is sponsoring a giveaway on Mommy Ramblings! One lucky blog reader will win an Echo shell in their choice of color and DryTouch Pod! Thank you SoftBums for this awesome review diaper and giveaway!!! Open to US residents only.

Just switched my daughter to cloth diapers and I LOVE how perfect softbums diapers fit her. She is tiny but has chunky thighs and the slide adjust legs are perfect! They never leave marks on her and never leak!
I like the adjustable leg elastic.

SoftBums Omni Shell
Unique pods are contoured to fit perfectly inside, keeping the shell clean.
We are planning on using Softbums with our little one that is due the first week of May. Can’t wait!
like the slidesize
I just got my first Softbums last week! These are the softest diapers I have ever felt!
The pods actually snap in, which is really nice, so you don’t have to fiddle around trying to get them right.
The top layer is built into the pod not the shell so the shell is reusable.

SoftBums are the only diaper to us the Patent Pending Slide²Size adjustment.. Very cool!
Use as a pocket for a super absorbent and bulletproof diaper.
I love the Slide2Size feature!! With Slide²Size, babies with super skinny legs as well as babies with super chubby legs get to wear the same diaper and have a nice trim fit with no leaks!!
