‘Pinkie? pads act like a saucer in a sense that the moisture is absorbed through the surface to the soaker pad and held in by the waterproof barrier. The X2534P and X2534PW has a polyester top that helps provide a stay dry surface, whilst the ‘rest of the Pinkie’ pad range have a cotton/polyester top providing a natural sleeping surface.

Although the sizes vary from small to large, they are all of the same construction. First is a non-irritant surface next to the skin: its special weave gives a soft, comfortable feel whilst allowing fluid to pass through quickly. Secondly, there?s the middle soaker layer designed to absorb fluids, and the final layer is the waterproof barrier.

This means that other methods of waterproofing are no longer necessary. Plastic and rubber sheeting and most importantly the irritating smell are all disposed off in the laundry!
