Reusable swim nappies

Can anyone recommend a reusable swim nappy that you don't need to use a Little Swimmer with?

Preferably with a good fit around the waist as I have a skinny child and a cheapo one I bought from Asda gapes alarmingly at the top so only any use for the beach.

Supplementary question: when did you stop using a swim nappy? Ds is 2.3 but not ready for potty training yet. I presume you want to go belt & braces in the water for a good while anyway (local pool was closed when I went a couple of weeks ago due to an "accident". I do not want to be that poor mother )

I always found Aqua nappies to be very good and easy to get on ebay.
Used them for both DD and DS

i have a boots one which is velcro and ties at the waist but not extremly tight

i have stopped using a swim nappy now and for a month or two and dd is 2.10, though i think im breaking the pool rules which say till 3, dd has been toilet trained since 2.2

I use a kooshies swim nappy (which does up with ties, so avoids your skinny child problem), then a splashabout neoprene nappy on top of that.

In two years, nothing has escaped.

I got mine from mothercare and never used anything else with it. DS has never pooed in the pool and we have been going since he was about 3 months old (now 2.5 years and wears ordinary swim shorts as he is toilet trained)

Thanks everyone. These all look good.

i can second the boots swim nappy with the velcro and ties. it's the boots own brand though not the mini mode one.
