Here is some clarification on the different closure styles SmallSprout™ offers:
Probably the most popular closure style, touchtape with laundry tabs

Touch tape allows for the most custom fit while this feature gives you the ability to fold down the tabs to prevent "diaper chains" in the wash. This style also hides the touch tape so all you see is your cute pattern showing in front. SmallSprout™ has always sewn an overlapping tab on one side for small waists.
Front touchtape tabs:

This feature has shorter wings and exposed touchtape just as the name brand BumGenius uses, but without the stretchy wings. There are no fold over laundry tabs on this feature as of yet.
Front Snaps:
NOTE:All of the polyacetal resin snaps that we use comply with the CPSIA lead and phthalates regulations.

The front snap feature allows for overlapping just as the laundry tab touch tape option does.
Side Snaps:

Wings are hidden inside diaper when worn.

NOTE It is the policy of SmallSprout™ to use laundry tab touch tape if no preference has been noted in order details.
