GoodNites


GoodNites (Formerly Pull-Ups Goodnites) (Known as DryNites in the UK and some other countries) are protective undergarments designed for bedwetters and are the leading brand who offer products to older children who still require the use of absorbent undergarments to manage their nighttime incontinence.

The product was historically marketed to parents of children 10 years of age and younger, and 85 pounds and smaller; in recent years, the target audience has been expanded upward to teenagers and even young adults who may still wet the bed. Overseas, DryNites are expressly targeted toward persons 4 to 15 years of age. GoodNites are designed to be worn to bed in order to prevent wetting of the sheets and bedclothes in case of an accident. They are pull-up style rather than tape-up to make it easier for the children suffering from involuntary nighttime urination to change their protective undergarment on their own, though of course, some parents are more comfortable changing their child or teenager's undergarment themselves. Once wet, the sides of the protective undergarment can be torn apart to be changed. According to the website, there is no reason GoodNites can't be worn during the day by children and teenagers who experience daytime wettings as well; it is marketed as a bedwetting product mainly because that form of urinary incontinence is most common among children.

As of 2004, GoodNites feature both cosmetic and functional gender-specific distinctions. GoodNites for girls are most absorbent in the middle, while GoodNites for boys are most absorbent in the front. At present, GoodNites for girls feature prints consisting of butterflies and hearts or butterflies and monkeys, and GoodNites for boys feature camouflage and trucks or camouflage and skateboarders depending on the size. These graphics are intended to be appealing and comforting to the bedwetter to hep increase their self-confidence. Like the 2010 re-designs, the current release features two different prints per package.

GoodNites serves as the middle level of incontinence products in Kimberly-Clark's line, with Huggies diapers and Pull-Ups training pants for babies and toddlers, and Depend undergarments for older adults. Since the late 2010s, all of K-C's incontinence products have suffered a significant decline in quality and availability (while prices have continued to increase rather than go down); a reduction of absorbent material over time since the mid-1990s, and most recently altogether doing away with the polyethylene-based backing that allowed users to actually "get back into life" without risk of wetness bleeding through the inferior woven cloth-like backing of their modern product onto their street clothes.
