Trainer pants (daytime underwear)

Reusable absorbent pull up pants to help with potty training
Washable, reusable trainer pants are ideal for children on their way to being potty trained. Helpful for those who are dry sometimes but have occasional "accidents" or don't quite make it to the toilet in time. Trainer pants are ideal for when you are out and about or at play group etc. to give extra peace of mind.

Reusable trainer pants are quite unlike disposable pull-ups, which are really just pull-up nappies, and they have the advantage that the child can feel when they are wet, helping them to learn the association between the sensation of weeing and wet pants. An additional benefit, apart from the obvious environmental benefits, is that reusable training pants are extremely economical compared with disposable pull up pants.

We have a range of different brands of training pants. Our Imse Vimse and Motherease trainer pants will absorb small wees, ideal for those who have little accidents occasionally. Super Undies tend to hold more. Trainer pants are not, of course, a nappy substitute, and will need changing shortly after the child has wet to avoid wicking onto the clothing. However, they will help to prevent embarrassing accidents for your child, and allow you to get your little one to the toilet for a change if necessary. We stock the following excellent brands:

• Super Undies
• Imse Vimse Organic Training Pants
• Motherease Training Pants

If you are looking for trainer pants for night time have a look here at the Super Undies Nighttime and the Motherease Bedwetter pants.

Super Undies!
Hero-themed training pants to make potty-learning fun
Super Undies really are waterproof underwear! They have wonderfully soft stretchy side tabs that conform closely to the body, making them trim, but they can be pulled up in a single tug! Fun colour themes and names are all part of Super Undies in action. They help to make potty learning fun, creating a positive experience around using the potty to encourage your little one to use it. So throw on a cape, grab your tiara, buckle on your holster, 'cause it's potty training time!

Super Undies come in two styles:

Super Undies Pocket Training Pants: Reusable pull-up pants with a pocket so you can customize absorbency using "Step-Up Inserts". They also have poppers so they can be taken off like a nappy if required.

Super Undies Pull ons: Simple reusable pull-up pants with sewn-in absorbency.

 

Super Undies Pocket Trainer Pants
Superhero training pants with a pocket to enable you to choose the absorbency your child needs at each stage of potty training. They can be pulled up and down or removed like a nappy if your child does a poo in them. We recommend these for those new to potty training because you can alter absorbency and the poppers for easy removal. Features:

• Comfy water-proof fabric on the outside but silky smooth on the inside
• Sleek underwear appearance, so your child can be a "big boy" or "big girl"
• Tight but comfortable lock around the legs reduces leaks
• Back release poppers for "uh-oh! moments" to make messes easier to remove and are adjustable at the waist and leg.
• One layer of absorbency sewn-in for light daytime "accidents" with
• a stuffable back opening and Step-up Inserts available to customize absorbency for your child. You can add one or two step-up inserts to the pants.

Super Undies pocket training pants are available in three sizes, with a guide below:

Pocket Trainers
	Waist	Legs	Rise	Typical Age
Small	16-19"	9-12"	15"	2 - 3 yrs
Medium	18-21"	10-14"	17"	2 - 5 yrs
Large	19-25"	13-18"	19"	5 + yrs

You can order Super Undies and Step-Up inserts below.

"Step up Inserts"
Step up the absorbency with Super Undies Step-up Inserts! These two layered microterry inserts are designed to let you choose your level of absorption your child experiences. Two Step-up Inserts offers full protection (great for naptimes), but at other times when potty training is at a priority, you may choose to use one or no inserts to enable your child to make the connection between doing a wee and feeling wet. You can gradually reduce the absorbency level if you wish. The Super Undies system of flexible absorbency can take your training pants from water-tight to soggy bottom, and lets YOU dictate the level of consequence. Buy inserts here.

Trainer Pants below are purchased without inserts. You will need to purchase inserts as a seperate item here, so that the trainer pant is fully absorbent.

The absorbent core of three layers of microterry (four layers in the large size) is permanently sewn in.

• Comfy water-proof fabric on the outside but silky smooth on the inside
• Sleek underwear appearance so your child can be a "big boy" or "big girl"

Imse Vimse trainer pants
Organic cotton covered pull-up pants
Beautifully soft, Imse Vimsetraining pants will help while your child makes the transition out of nappies. Suitable for use during the daytime (not during a nap) at the transition stage between nappies and being fully toilet trained.

They have the advantage of looking and feeling like real pants, with a comfortable layer of organic cotton on the outside, soft elastic at the waist, two layers of absorbent organic terry cloth on the inside and a hidden layer of polyurethane-laminated polyester to keep clothes dry and allow the skin to breathe. Change pants soon after wetting to prevent wicking onto clothing.

Options
The outer organic cotton layer is available in white or several attractive prints. Imse Vimse trainer pants are now also available in Fox Fibre®, a cotton that is naturally coloured, not dyed. The natural colours darken when washed, and the fabric is more durable than ordinary cotton. Fox Fibre® makes a lovely choice for training pants because of its softness, it is chemical free and friendly to the environment.

Sizing
Available in 3 or 4 sizes, depending on style. The suggested weight range, age range and the waist measurements of the pants (unstretched) are given to guide you in choosing the perfect size for your little one:

Motherease trainer pants
Pull-up trainer pants. Discount available when you buy three of more pairs.
These pants are designed to contain day-time accidents for toddlers who are on their way to toilet training. They can be pulled down and up by the child, allowing them the independence to do it themselves. Made from a soft waterproof polyurethane laminate outer that feels like fabric (the same as that used for Motherease wraps) with a layer of soft cotton terry inside and a double layered gusset. They will absorb a small wee, allowing your child to make it to the toilet without wet clothes.

How many will I need? You can judge this by how often you are likely to use them and how often your child is likely to wet them. If you only intend to use them for times when you or your child are out and about when accidents may matter most you may not need more than a couple of pairs. If you are planning to use them full time you will need as many as your child is likely to wet each day. These pants can alternately be rinsed through by hand and machine washed. They dry quickly in a warm place if turned inside out (e.g. overnight or slightly longer). Available in three sizes:
Small 20lb - 30lb
Large 30lb - 40lb
XL 40lb - 60lb
in plain white or print. The print will be one of the eco theme prints (see Motherease wraps page for pictures). We cannot guarantee your first choice, but please state any preference by listing this in the additional information at the checkout and we will most likely be able to accommodate this or select the closest to your choice available.
