Booster Sizing Guide for NorthShore Tab-Style Briefs and Pull-Ups
One of the most effective ways to extend the protection of a tab-style adult diaper or pull-up underwear is to layer it with a flow-through booster pad (also known as a diaper doubler or diaper insert). Unlike standard bladder pads and incontinence liners, which are designed to be worn alone and cause leaks when placed inside a diaper, a booster pad like EternaDry® Booster Pads is specifically engineered to fill with liquid and flow through into the primary product below. The result: added absorbency without overflow and more time between changes — especially useful on long days or overnight when finding a good time to change isn't always possible.
When adding a booster, sizing matters. The booster should be the same size or smaller than the brief or pull-up being used and must sit within the leak guards, not over them. A booster that's too large will extend past the leak guards and open the door to leaks.
When sized correctly, the pad will sit flat in the core of the adult diaper or pull-up where it can do its job without compromising fit. EternaDry Booster Pads are stackable, but stacking higher than the leak guards will cause leaks so a maximum of two is recommended.

Diaper-Style with Tabs (Briefs)*
Pull-Up Style (Underwear)**
*XL and 2XL Contour Boosters are recommended for tab-style briefs when extra coverage in front and rear is needed. However, they will cover the leak guards in these areas, which could offset some of their effectiveness, especially for side-sleepers.
**XL and 2XL Contour Boosters do NOT fit inside NorthShore brand pull-ups.
