There are many great debates in the world of cloth diapering:
Wool vs. Pul Snaps vs. Aplix Snap down rise vs. Fold down rise
Need I go on...?
Another is bamboo vs. hemp.
Both are awesome fabrics, 4x more absorbent than cotton, and more sustainable too.
Bamboo is softer overall, while hemp is thicker. I can't decide what I like better.

280 gsm bamboo/organic cotton fleece
(This is what I currently use for the inserts-6 layers total)
340 gsm bamboo/organic cotton fleece
This is what I may start using instead.
Comparison of above two types of fleeces--280 on top, 340 on bottom...
see how much thicker the 340 is?
Hemp/Organic Cotton Fleece
(Very thick, and more cost effective as opposed to the thicker b/oc fleece)
LOVE!
Thickness of hemp
Just 4 layers of hemp! Wow! Soo thick!
Organic bamboo/hemp blend
I LOVE this...
2 layers of bamboo/hemp
Bamboo fleece PUL...
bamboo on one side, pul on the other but one piece of fabric
The fleece on top, I may move to a different method, so as to create more absorbency...
Maybe like an actual layer of pul and then one of the above fabrics on top? I'm thinking hemp/oc fleece...
I'm still on the fence about what to use full-time....in general, though not always, the all in two diapers have bamboo, and the fitteds have hemp.
Hmmmm, I see some super special and fast drying fitteds in the future!
