Plastic pants can be found in a variety of different materials, colors and styles. Youth size plastic pants are multi-purpose and can be worn over cloth or disposable youth diapers, or even over regular underwear or extra-protection training pants.

The youth plastic pants presented in this review are from the All Together Diaper Company and come in youth sizes Extra Small - Large, and the colors blue, pink, yellow and white.

The pants are very durable and have extra room in the crotch area to accomodate the added protection of a night-time youth disposable diaper or doubler. The colored pants are lightly embossed with a pattern but it does not lend itself one way or the other to their effectiveness.

Many parents use plastic pants as simply an added method of protection when traveling, opting to have their child wear the pants over their regular underwear, avoiding the cost of disposable underpants for older children. Plastic pants should not be used with any kind of a training program, as a child may sweat under the pants, causing the bedwetting alarm to sound prematurely.

REMEMBER: Disposable diapers and plastic pants should not be used as punishment for bed-wetting or any other behavioral issues. Youth diapers are recommended only for complete or heavy incontinence. For normal bed-wetting, we strongly recommend the use of a Malem bed-wetting alarm for night-time training and GoodNites underpants for sleepovers away from home.
