💬 Shorties – The Most Absorbent Shorts-Style Training Pants in NZ 💛

Perfect for daytime confidence, car trips, sleepovers, or the final stages of night training, these reusable training pants give kids freedom and independence while reducing mess and stress.

✨ Soft & comfy – feels just like real shorts
✨ Confidence building – helps kids feel grown-up and proud
✨ Smart design – sewn-in waterproof pad flips out to dry faster
✨ Easy care – wash and tumble-dry like everyday clothing

💛 Why Parents Love Shorties

Shorties let your child practice being dry while cutting down the cleanup.
They aren’t nappies – which means they don’t hold unlimited wetness – but they do give kids time to wake up, reach the toilet, and build awareness.

💧 Flannel-topped pad – lets your child feel dampness to encourage bladder awareness
💧 Generous absorbency – holds approx. 140–250 ml, depending on size
💧 Confidence boost – wearing Shorties instead of disposable nappies helps kids feel like big kids

“Brilliant for the last stage of night training – they gave us our confidence (and sleep!) back.”

💡 If your child still fills a disposable nappy overnight, our Pullups are a better choice — they’re fully leakproof and can completely replace disposables.

🧵 Sizing & Custom Fit

Our sizes are true to NZ sizing but slightly generous for comfort. Every child’s shape is different, so we offer free custom fitting.

To get the best fit:

1. Check the measurements below

2. Send your child’s age, weight, and build (slim / tall / stocky) via the contact tab or note at checkout

👉 Larger sizes available on request.

🌙 Night Training with Shorties

I used these with my own kids in the final stage of night training and found them brilliant for:
💛 Giving enough time to wake and reach the toilet
💛 Reducing middle-of-the-night cleanups
💛 Helping kids feel proud and grown-up compared to wearing disposables

Pair them with a Brolly Sheet for extra peace of mind.

If your child isn’t quite ready for Shorties, try our Pullups – they have a full waterproof outer and higher absorbency for deeper sleepers.
