Why Wool Diaper Covers | Say Goodbye to Leaks, Rashes & Stinky Pee!

Modified on Fri, 13 Jun at 12:49 PM

Tired of rashes, leaks, and that eye-watering stinky pee smell?
We’ve been there. That’s why so many parents—ourselves included—are turning to wool diaper covers as a natural, breathable, and low-maintenance solution.

At Bumby Wool, we’re passionate about making diapering easier, comfier, and cuter. In this video, we break down the science behind why wool works so well—and why our diaper covers are a parent favorite.


Key Points

  • Conventional diapers trap heat and stink—wool breathes and balances moisture

  • Bumby’s “Comfort Wool Cycle” reduces rash, odors, and laundry

  • Wool absorbs and evaporates moisture without soaking through

  • Bumby diaper covers are handmade, preshrunk, and built for real life

  • Supportive team + adorable colors = easy transition for new families


 The Problem with Conventional Diapering

If you've ever walked into your baby's room and been knocked over by the smell, you're not alone. Disposable diapers and many synthetic cloth diaper covers trap moisture and ammonia, creating heat, discomfort, and that oh-so-familiar stench.

They can also lead to red marks, skin irritation, and a lot more laundry. No thanks.


Enter: The Comfort Wool Cycle

Wool works with your baby's body, not against it. Here's how:

  • It gently rebounds moisture instead of immediately soaking through.

  • That moisture is then absorbed into the hollow core of the wool fibers.

  • Finally, it evaporates out, releasing heat and humidity naturally.

We call this the Comfort Wool Cycle—a breathable, stink-resistant, rash-reducing solution that’s totally natural.
