Which do you find better.. PUL out for pocket nappies or the water repelant Fleece?

Which is cooler.
what are the benefits of one over the other?

'better' depends on how you define it and what your priorities are :o

PUL is much, much trimmer and there's no risk of compression leaks. Fleece is more breathable (and therefore cooler), comes in a wider range of colours and is probably slightly cheaper.

I've found fleece doesn't work very well for us (as a cover or pocket) and the pilling annoys me a bit so I've stuck to PUL pockets. Personal preference really.

Basically what Lucy said is right it really depends on what you prefer & also what works for bubs its a case of trial & error in some cases !
We use a fleece nappy for nite time because it "breathes" as well as evapourating which means bubs jammies may feel a little damp but its not a leak. Ive found this a much better nite nappy for us than a PUL.
But i love my PUL for everyday it still breathes but obviously not as well as fleece or wool which being natural is the best.
All i can say is get a few of each that way you can try out what is the best for you & bubs.
Good luck !
