Made in USA of USA-made fabric.
The snaps on Baby Blues Denim print look like brass because of the color but they are normal diaper snaps not metal, so no worries about metals. It's not cotton on the outside so it won't wick, but it really looks like it is real jeans fabric. It's a jeans print on the same quality diaper cover fabric as the other Mommy's Touch covers. No wicking. The pocket a decoration, not a true pocket. It is sewn down on purpose. It is so cute! I really love this one. This just might be the cutest diaper cover I've ever seen. Baby can match with the whole family in "jeans".
One-size fits most adjusts from about 6 weeks old to about 35 pounds.
Does any "one-size" product really fit a newborn correctly? In my opinion (Karen), the answer is no. One of my 3 babies was 9 lbs 3 ounces at birth. Even big newborns are newborns. Something that fits a 1 or 2 year old really doesn't fit a newborn, even a big newborn, in my opinion. You can make it work if you need to, though. I worked with Mommy's Touch to design a newborn version of this wonderful cover. See Mommy's Touch Adjustable Newborn cover here.
Mommy's Touch bandana on a 6 month old on location in Haiti at an orphanage during one of GMD's mission trips, this one was Fall 2009 (this picture was before the earthquake, GMD also went several times after). Mommy's Touch covers are enjoyed at the orphanage because they will fit any baby.

Is this expensive for a cover? Well, think about it. It's TWO full layers of waterproof material, so of course that costs more than one layer. It's not a sandwich PUL but two one-layer PUL layers with the waterproof layer inside. No PUL touches baby, no PUL exposed. This means durability which is needed for a cover that is "one-size" so that it lasts well. The layers are soft and thin, though, so don't worry, it's not bulky. The pocket diaper version of this or other pocket diaper brands cost this much (or more), yet the cutting and sewing work needed for this cover is just as much as for pocket diapers. The material (USA-made PUL knit) is actually more expensive than imported polyester fleece in a typical pocket. So when you think about it, this price is accurate and reasonable compared to a pocket diaper. Plus, pockets are single-use then wash, and this cover can be reused through a few changes before washing, giving you more bang for your buck (and the advantage of safe, non-stinky easy-washing cotton next to baby's bottom! Love it!) This can be a very good selection, especially if you have 2 in diapers, or prefer a very adjustable snap closure cover. Babies change shape quickly. Sometimes they are larger, chubby and wider at 6-8 months old than they are at 14 months old after they get taller and start walking. This will fit through all the ages, shapes and stages, without ever getting a velcro rub. I really like this cover. Made in the USA and that means something. Made of USA material, too.

Touchtape Hook and Loop Closure version
What is Touchtape? It's a brand name of hook and loop closure. Other brands of hook and loop closure are Velcro and Aplix. No bumpy rise snaps. Simple, flat, soft and smooth. The folded down rise is great for yellow edge prefolds. Full height is for either red edge or brown edge prefolds. Use them either trifolded (which is ~ fold the diaper in thirds and stick in the cover and the cover hold it in place, as shown below on the doll), or you can fasten the diaper, or use it over a fitted diaper. This is really nice for those who want adjustablility but no snaps on the outside.
