update 03.26.24
after having them for a little over a week
the new boys XL goodnites are a huge improvement.
they are DEFINITELY geared toward teenage boys aged 12 and up to young adults in their early to mid 20s depending on your frame, weight etc. if you fall within the CDC standards for age/weight they should fit you like they fit me. They definitely are not geared to the overweight gang trying to fit a square peg into a round hole so to speak.
they come up to my belly button like i mentioned and fit like a glove, they swell way more like my goodnites did back when i was bedwetting regularly as a teen, and they feel more like huggies, not as crinkly but definitely have a distinct rustle/crinkle to them. i’ll try wearing them around my sister with clothes or pjs on and see if she notices. that will be the determining factor if i wear them outside of the house or not.
absorbancey is quick.
the padding is thicker and i’ve had no leaks, i tried wetting them laying down as if i was bedwetting and no issues even with a full bladder, will definitely wear them to bed here and there in case i bedwet again, doesn’t matter anyway now i got busted by my sister and passed it off as stress. she even commented how well they fit as per my earlier comment.
but she must’ve said something to my mom though because she quietly asked if i was bedwetting again and i admitted yes bc none of my family know im a DL. she said that’s fine and she’d buy them for me so i didn’t have to spend my money which im planning on using for schooling in the fall.
she chuckled though and asked arent you a bit too old for Goodnites now with those designs and stuff…why not get some depends or something? I said to my mom, nah they are too big and Goodnites just recently updated them to fit older kids and teens and they fit great. she said oh ok, well that’s good then and that was that.
kind of an mildly embarrassing and awkward convo but my family has always been supportive of me excluding light teasing by my older sister here and there over the years.
so i’ll see how things go, and if i lucked into a good batch or if this is here to stay.
hopefully they make them slightly taller still and continue making improvements.
