This company has an extremly large selection of PVC and rubber items of which I am only familiar with a few. the Beta and high-waiste Christy in both palstic and rubber, the "sanitary slips" which make nice off the shoulder babydolls and plastic and rubber sheeting.
- ITEM:#060 Beta High Waist Diaper Pants; Panties SEE

- ELASTICS: medium wdith but a bit scratchy. RATING: 7
- MEASUREMENTS: The sides are about 14" at the shortest point from waistband to legband and the crotch is about 14" at the narrowest point.
- SHAPE: Very full cut. a size L covers my doubled very thick cloth diaper with room to spare. If you are near the upper size limit, get the next one up, depending on the thickness of your diaper. RATING: 9
- SIZE: Small for waist 26"-38" (66cm-97cm) and hips to 38" (97cm).

X-Large for waists 45" to 65" (115cm-165cm) and hips to 65" (165cm
- NOISE: Some but not much RATING 5 (with 10 being a rustle/crinke fest fantasy). While that is fair to middling for babyishness it may be too much for other purposes
- LEAKS: As long as the elastics are good, they are negigible. RATING: 9, To be sure, like any, they can be over-wet or worn with too-thin diapers.
- COLORS; Frosted RATING: 1
- PRICE In USA, US $ 8. In Canada, Can $ 8. Other countries, US $ 10 (8 euro).
- NOTES:
- These are sewn at the seas and elastics. They can come undone but are easily fixed with a spot of "Marine GooP" and the elastics can partially unravel but that is rare
- A. C. Medical claims that their products are specifically for disabled persons and they are not "fashion items". However, a look at their product lines of which there are many and varied, might make you question that as would the large number of pictures of their merchandise. Also the owner seems to be more knowledgeable about the details of the materials than disinterest would suggest as well as the fact that many of the panties have feminine names (about which I have never gotten any answers) and he liked two of the babydolls I designed, On a picutre and the othe one that I sent him. I was also told by one of the model who had her own sites, in a roundabout way about 7 years ago that the owner enjoys what he is doing which is the closest to a direct answer I have gotten. They operate under special tax and postage laws that require them to advertise as strictly for disabled persons and the majority of what they sell like "short medical pants" and various diapers, fit into that category. What can I say except BE DISCREET and you will be well served!! All that I have is much circumstantial and some hearsay evidence that says they are not what they say they are.
- PAYMENT: A. C. Medical accepts PayPal, which is a big plus. THE POSTAGE FEE IS, FOR ORDERS TO USA, US $ 14 PER PARCEL (NOT PER GARMENT). FOR ORDERS TO CANADA, CANADIAN $ 13. FOR ORDERS TO OTHER COUNTRIES, THE POSTAGE FEE IS US $ 18 (or 15 euro) PER PARCEL. RATING 3 TO 10; depending on how you order
COMMENTS (LOOK & FEEL, ETC): Given the wide range of users of "rubber panties", it is often the case that panties are evaluated on "babyishness". if you were a baby, toddler or wore diapers in 1952 or later, and your parents were moderately prosperous and did not use panties made from the cheap grainy material, chances are, you wore "rubber panties" made of material that was smooth and fairly thick, Thse are more like Empire with a medium thickness. In this category, a picture is worth a thousand words.
Head to head with real baby panties;
the Gerber panties that are put on Christine's dollies Andrea Lynne and Lisa Michelle
As you see, the Beta panty comes pretty close however, much of your idea of babyishness depends on when you were little. . So if you need good "rubber panties" from 1950 for a baby, toddler or little consider The A. C. Medical Beta. Being semi-transparent pearlescent, this would go very well over a print diaper and add a bit of luster
RATING: 8 depending on your taste. Just the right thing to go with the short little dresses that Little Girl needs to wear to be on her best behavior
Most A. C Medical High-Waist Diaper panties score fairly high in most of the categories and the Beta is no exception. so I give an overall rating Good How you evaluate them depends on whas is importantto you.
