Looking forward to trying these. I really don’t like plastic backed, so glad there is another cloth backed option.

They are pretty good at getting their shipments out in a timely manor. Also fedex does a far better job than UPS.Llayden said:If shipping holds true, I'll have a case of these tomorrow! Happy face!
Hey NorthShoreAdam, do you have more details on that 2xl original MM? Like proposed sizing range and all? I'm curious because I thought the reason plastic backed diapers were maxed out at certain size or so was due to machine capacities. Those larger versions get by with the "glued on" felt strap extenders which leak and are uncomfortable. Will this be a true all plastic backed 2XL with the plastic backing going all the way into the wings? That would be amazing for us taller and larger individuals! Also it would be even better if the rise were increased a bit over the XL size. Thanks for listening to the community and offering this! I am certainly a happy customer so far!NorthShoreAdam said:Hey good news. Sizes XS, S and M have finally arrived to join L and XL as in-stock!
Note: Size 2XL of MM Original and MM Air is in the works hoping to arrive in the fall.
NorthShore MEGAMAX Air Tab-Style Adult Incontinence Briefs | Adult Diapers
NorthShore MEGAMAX Air Briefs feature maximum absorbency with a breathable cloth-like backsheet. Extra-wide, extra-long absorbent core for up to 9 hours of protection.www.northshorecare.com
The 2XL MegaMax (original & Air) will be 5cm longer than XL...so 2.5cm in front and 2.5cm in rear. However, they will have elastic ears on the sides to achieve the full width. You are correct, that it's not yet possible to achieve the 2XL width in a one-piece design on existing machinery. If the 2XL MegaMax is very successful and volume grows substantially, we'll work towards seeing if the high cost of further machine upgrades to move to one-piece design will be justifiable.mdogg said:Hey NorthShoreAdam, do you have more details on that 2xl original MM?

I did notice my right lower tape started to tear away from the back, but I assumed that was a me issue I ended up tightening things up so I figured the expansion and the tightening were the culprit there.Yooo said:What do you guys think about the tapes? I am happy with the absorbency but I feel that the tapes stretch on the cloth backing just like most of the other clothed back diapers out there. Even with a onsie for support, I find that they sag and stretch way too much for me. I unfortunately ended up purchasing a whole case of them. If only there was a breathable, reinforced landing zone for these hook and loop tapes that doesn't shred like the cloth backed layer.
Thanks for the response on a Saturday! I will reach out to customer support on Monday, as I am having issues with the tapes and sagging as I have mentioned. I tried to give it a full week to really see how they worked for me.NorthShoreAdam said:We're not fans of the landing zone option with hook tapes but we're going to test a few options to reduce the possibility of tape pops or stretching on MegaMax Air. We'll make it even more reliable next time they are produced. We greatly appreciate the feedback so we can improve this product as quickly as possible.
They dont stretch as bad as other brands but they do stretch a little. Landing zone on the plastic back is the best. But i understand wanting to keep them light they are very absorbant. I think maybe just a wider thicker set of tapes or add a tape and make them a 6 tape diaper. Ot would add a lot of support. I always like the fit of a 6 tape diaper.NorthShoreAdam said:We're not fans of the landing zone option with hook tapes but we're going to test a few options to reduce the possibility of tape pops or stretching on MegaMax Air.
