reusable swim nappy - Sea Kelp Pipi
Pekpi is proudly Australia's first Reusable Swim Nappy made from Rpet fabric which is made from 100% Post-consumer Recycled Plastic Bottles destined for our oceans. Inspired by a minimal lifestyle, Pekpi's Swim Nappies are better for the planet, easy to use and designed in our exclusive on-trend colours and prints.
what makes pekpi swim nappies so good?
- Mindfully made from REPREVE® Our Ocean™ 100% Post-consumer Recycled Plastic outer shell
- Available in four sizes to fit newborn to 14kg +
- Drawstring closure and elastic waist and legs for a comfortable and secure fit to prevent leaks
- Lightweight materials buttery soft against bubs skin when wet or dry
- No absorbency required designed to catch number twos but allow liquids to pass through so that bub remains buoyant in the water
-
Swim nappies are designed for use in water, holding solids while allowing liquids to pass through to avoid weighing the baby down. They typically feature snug elastic at the legs and waist to contain messes. Unlike regular nappies, swim nappies do not have absorbent layers to prevent them from becoming waterlogged.
-
Unlike our one-size-fits-most Cloth Nappies, our Swim Nappies come in 4 different sizes based on the weight of your bub. Our swim nappies feature a drawstring waist for a secure fit around bubs tum.
- Small: 4 - 7 KG
- Medium: 7 - 10 KG
- Large: 10 - 15KG
- Extra-Large: 15+ KG
-
You will generally only need 2-3 swim nappies, depending how often your baby swims, as they feature a quick drying mesh lining. Use alongside our wet bag and keep dry clothing separate. Simply wash along with your other clothing items (or cloth nappies) being careful not to exceed 60 degrees celsius.
-
For number two soiled nappies follow the process as our standard Cloth Nappy Washing Guide with a pre-wash before adding the Swim Nappy into your main load. If the Swim Nappy is not soiled simply wash in your main wash (do not exceed 60 degrees). To ensure its longevity ensure that your Swim Nappy doesn't come into contact with sun lotions or rough surfaces.
-
Yes, swim nappies can be worn under a bathing suit or on their own, depending on pool rules and personal preference.
-
No, using a regular diaper under a swim diaper is not recommended as it will absorb water and become heavy, potentially causing discomfort and hindrance.
-
It’s generally recommended to have at least two to three reusable swim nappies to ensure you have a clean one ready when needed, especially for longer swimming sessions or outings.
-
No, all Swim Nappies (regardless of whether they are reusable or disposable) are designed to catch number twos whilst letting liquids pass through. This is so that bub can remain buoyant in the water and not be weighed down by a full nappy.

At the stage where everything changes in the blink of an eye, it is so important that we remainn present and demonstrate conscious choices for our kids.
Pekpi was born in our household on the Sunshine Coast, Australia from this idea of living a more mindful life with our babes...
