Huggies "Jeans" Diapers

Just got back from the store and this is By Far the Dumbest Thing Ever. Disposable diapers meant/printed to look like jeans? Are you kidding me?!

Wait until they get all soggy and dragging down... wait, now they'll look like the 'hanging off my butt' jeans the boys wear.
Years ago I thought it would be funny to have a Calvin Klein or Sean Jean 'waistband' at the top of the diapers, because they always stick out. BUT, that was for a joke, a novelty.

Is it just me,will "jean diapers" become just another artifact of human stupidity?

What can I do next?

So What Happened?™

Wow. This post, which is by far the most inane thing I have ever posted here, has received more responses than any other post I've put up. (at least I think it has.)

We, the some of us, obviously have some strong pro/against feelings about these diapers! It's been over a week and people are still posting. Very interesting.... and I'm still sticking with my original opinion. More stuff for the landfill --which is inevitable, considering their purpose.

I think they are cute...we usually don't have a wet diaper on long enough to worry about droopy drawers. I think they look like cute little shorts and are nice if you like to go with just a diaper and t-shirt in the summer months...

I am a cloth mom though... so I wish I could find cloth diapers that looked like jeans...

To each their own...

PS... they are special edition, to raise money to donate diapers to diaper banks ("cute for a cause") for families in need... so at least they are doing something...

I think they are hilarious and super cute. I wanted to buy a pack just to get a pic of my son in one, and if money weren't so tight right now I would have. Would I buy them for every day use? No. Do I think they are cute? Yes :) And they are the same price as the other huggie diapers, so if you aren't worried about quality then you don't need to worry about it.

I like the commercial because it's so cute, but the reason why I hate them is A. it's a disposable. B. it's a disposable with that much more ink and chemicals all over it and C. They are trying to be cool and personalized like cloth diapers.
Cloth diapers all the way! Sooooo glad my day care will now let us cloth diaper there!!!

I think they're ridiculous and I hate the commercial. "When I do #2, I look like #1" !?!

If only they'd use their powers for good.

The first time I saw the commercial, I cracked up. At the time, my son was wearing one of the cloth diapers I had made him... with a (real) denim outer layer.

My babies don't wear pants when they don't have to, so I'm pretty big on cute diapers. So much so that I refuse to throw them away. ;-)

That baby is a doll in the commercial! I have a confession to make. Yep, we bought a package but I have a daughter and when she wore dresses we would put em on her and it was sooo cute! We use the potty now! Thank goodness.
