Attends classic?

[diaperedteenager]

Alright, I ran accross some 1995 attends on ebay and am thinking about getting them. Are they worth it though? They will be around $30 total. Are they the blue tape ones? How thick are they compared to other diapers? Do they have leak guards??? This is my big thing, b/c newer attends dont have them.

Would I just be better off getting some abenas like I planed?

Looks like you answered yourself.

Those Attends don't have leak guards, but are much thicker than the Paper-Pak ones. They do have the blue tapes, smooth plastic, and the nice scent.

Vintage Attends are really cool... but they're not worth the money you are going to pay to get them. Buy some modern diapers with your money.

Those aren't the ones that people write about and pay so much money for - they're the older 4-tape design. The tapes on those were white plastic, with "Attends" embossed on them. They also lacked elastic at the waist, and they have the "perma-dry" lining, which isn't the same soft lining that baby diapers and most adult diapers have. I used those before the 6-tape ones came out, and by today's standards, they'd just be so-so.

Even the current 6-tape Attends are better than the older 4-tape ones.

Yeah, get the abena's. They've got all the things that you're asking for.

Of course, the purple Molicare Super-plus are pretty good too

I don't think I'd waste money on "vintage" diapers. The adhesive on the tapes have probably evaporated by now.
