Kudos Diapers
Kudos is the only diaper that features a 100% cotton top sheet, ensuring that baby's skin only touches natural fibers rather than plastic. This unique construction makes it the best choice for babies with extreme skin sensitivities.
Quality & Materials
100% cotton top sheet, TCF wood pulp, and plant-based backsheet. Double-layered core for leak protection.
Evidence & Testing
OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified and recipient of the 'Cotton Natural' seal.
Brand Transparency
High transparency regarding the sourcing of their US-grown cotton and the specific plant-based plastics used in the outer layers.
Value Assessment
Priced competitively with other premium subscription brands like Coterie.
Why Not Alternatives?
Almost every other 'natural' diaper (including Honest and Dyper) uses a polypropylene or polyethylene (plastic) top sheet. Kudos replaces this with 100% cotton, which is more breathable and less irritating.
