Premium One Size Diaper Pãkaiahi

This beautiful diaper is part of the Ora collection of New Zealand brand Kekoa. Ora (te reo Māori) means “To be alive, well, safe, cured, recovered, healthy’ in Māori. This collection is inspired by the plants traditionally used in Rongoā Māori (Māori traditional medicine that includes herbal medicines).

Pãkaiahi is also known as the fire starter mushroom, traditionally used to carry fire in the forest. It was worn by the chosen people to carefully keep the mushroom burning in damp and sometimes wet conditions for miles and in rugged terrain. Once the tribe reached their destination, the mushroom was used to build a fire to cook and keep warm. The pākaiahi mushroom (Ganoderma applanatum) is an edible species of medicinal fungus that has been used by Māori of Aotearoa for various healing abilities. Pãkaiahi is highly anti-inflammatory and linked to longevity, better immune function and mental clarity. They are large mushrooms often found on trees that are dead or dying.

Kekoa’s premium One Size diapers fit from about 3 to 18kg and are adjustable in five different sizes. The diapers are made from recycled polyester. This saves 75% on electricity and even 90% on water, compared to new polyester. Per diaper it saves about six plastic bottles that do not end up on the waste mountain.

The diapers can be used as a pocket diaper, with a large pocket opening on the front and back. In addition, you can also use them as a Snap-In-One diaper. By clicking the supplied inserts on the snaps in the diaper. There is also a flap at the front an back, so that you can also put loose inserts in the shell. A very versatile diaper!

The diaper is designed with a bilayer technology. This means that the outer layer consists of two layers. The outside with print is made of PUL, on which a CoolMax layer has been sewn, which is therefore on the inside of the pocket opening. The skin side of this diaper is also made of CoolMax. You can therefore easily slide inserts between the two CoolMax layers. This material is smooth and non-slip like the inside of PUL pocket diapers. It also makes preparing the diapers a lot easier for large hands and the extra layer also protects the water-resistant PUL layer. The two openings, both at the front and back, make preparing the diapers a lot easier than with traditional pocket diapers. Inserts fall out of the diaper easily during washing if they are not clicked into place.

The diapers have a double leg gussets at the legs and dual back elastic for superior containment. 

This beautiful diaper comes with a large bamboo-cotton booster and a slightly shorter bamboo-terry bifold/trifold. The bifold/trifold can be folded in several ways and is suitable for the very first period, but also for bigger children. You can use either one of these inserts, or both at the same time if you need more or less absorbency. 

This diaper has a very luxurious appearance due to the slightly shiny PUL and the firm, but soft materials. Truly a premium diaper!
