“Worth every penny” is what reviewers say about these cloth training pants. A parent-favorite for their cute prints, these reusable pairs are made with organic cotton and the absorbent liner is wool with a layer of nontoxic waterproof material. The briefs sit below the belly button, unlike many cloth training pants which run high-waisted, so they stay under cover. They’re available in sizes 2T to 4T, and in four different multi-print packs. “I would say they are the best potty training underwear I ever purchased,” one shopper raved. “Very soft thick cotton feel. Very absorbent. Fits like a glove.”

It’s no surprise these disposable pull-ups from Huggies have a ton of five-star reviews: They’re a great value and come in a wide range of sizes, from 16 pounds all the way up to 50 pounds. The sides open easily and refasten for a customized fit that prevents leaks. One reviewer reported, “The sticky Velcro on the sides is so convenient, especially in public restrooms.” The Mickey and Minnie prints have a special design that fades when wet, helping your little one learn to recognize when they need a change.

Many reviewers note that Seventh Generation’s free and clear hypoallergenic training pants are the only brand of disposables that don’t give their sensitive kids a rash. They are made in the U.S. using no chlorine bleach, lotions, or fragrances that could irritate the skin and the absorbent core is made of wood fluff pulp. One reviewer underscored how comfy the tear-away sides are: “We've been dealing with pull ups that are really scratchy on the sides, leading my son to refuse to wear them. He has no objections to how these feel!” They are available in sizes from 2T to 5T in unisex-friendly prints.

These are the cloth training pants for your toddler who can’t stop singing CoComelon’s “The Potty Training Song.” Available in sizes 18M, 2T, 3T, and 4T, they feature a soft combed cotton outer shell and a polyester lining to catch accidents. Reviewers said the vibrant prints helped motivate their little ones to keep them dry. They are tag-free, easy to pull on, and look like real underwear for the “I’m a big kid” crowd.

Huggies debuted these hypoallergenic pull-ups in 2020. Offering 12 hours of protection against leaks, plant-based ingredients make up almost a third of the ingredients of these toilet training pants.

They’re machine washable and available in several cute six-packs. Choose from a good range of sizes, starting at 12-24 months and going up to 3-5T.

Have a petite or early potty trainer in your house? These tag-free, washable potty training underwear start at 18 months and run up to 3T, and they come from a trusted name in underwear. One parent said, “These are the smallest training pants that I've found so far.” Another perk is they are not bulky and look and fit just like big kid’ briefs. A cotton liner keeps skin clean and a leak-proof liner also made of cotton catches any accidents, while still allowing the child to feel wetness.

Perfect for larger children or potty trainers working through a regression, Goodnites Nighttime works for day or night from 28 pounds all the way to and beyond 140 pounds.

Don’t sleep on these hypoallergenic overnight disposables! They are a fantastic deal and reviewers note they are, “roomy and comfortable,” “breathable as well as absorbent” and “work as well as the big name brands.” They are made in the U.S. in a zero-waste facility without latex, fragrance, dyes, or chlorine. Your little one won’t size out of them any time soon either. Sizes run from small all the way up to extra -arge. The plain and character-free design is discreet; perfect for an older potty trainer.

A great option for those towards the end of potty training or a kid who is dead set on wearing regular underwear, Sposie’s adhesive booster pads also work for heavy wetters as an add-on to any brand or type of pull-up. They are hypoallergenic and free of fragrances, latex, chlorine, and phthalates. Parents love the adhesive strip which “runs the length of the pad and is very thin, allowing for easy repositioning.”
