Oh, They're Real.

Since I haven't changed a diaper since the 7th grade (8 years of nieces and my record holds strong) I found it necessary to look up brand names for diapers when conducting the very important business of insulting someone's youth (27 years old= babies!). Google blessed me with a hit on these Jean Diapers from Huggies.

On one hand, I get that we all used to have non-disposable diapers. Why not be creative with the fabric? On the other... baby jorts? Rednecky? Possibly. Non-absorbent? Definitely.

Truthfully, I can't tell from the description whether or not they're actually fabric, though they keep calling them denim:

Jeans have always been a Mommy fashion must-have, but now it's time for their little ones to steal the style. HUGGIES® gets fashion forward with new denim diaper design to help your baby stay trendy while keeping dry.

Very fashionable - for a limited time!
Denim has always been a summer style staple, and the HUGGIES® Jeans Diapers are no exception: this is a short-term offering to help little ones steal Mom's summer style. However, HUGGIES® Little Movers are on shelves before, during and after the Jeans products are available.

  • A unique, fun and stylish way to make your little one the coolest and cutest around.
  • Same proven leakage protection Moms have come to know and trust from HUGGIES® Little Movers Diapers.
  • Shaped to move, featuring the same revolutionary design and technology as HUGGIES® Little Movers Diapers, allowing little ones to move, crawl and scoot.
Can you tell if they're actually denim? Do you question the diaper rash situation in non-breathable denim, coated with baby crap?

Uh, yeah. I saw this a few months back (no, they are not real jeans, just patterned plastic - http://newsfeed.time.com/2010/05/31/huggies-new-invention-jean-diapers/) on TV and I had one of those "what is this world coming to" moments. My baby is not afraid to go pantsless, he doesn't have to try and fool anyone with a corporation's idea of fashion.
