Sometimes, that's what you gotta do. I've seen parents do that at our daycare. I remember one Dad would show up with a duffel bag full of cloths each day, expecting the kiddo to just pee through all their outfits. We definitely did the same with our oldest for a time, send her in with trainers on. My youngest will tell me he has to pee, but only in the bath, because he's naked and doesn't want to pee in the bath. I think it's because the first couple of times he did it, I scooped him out of the tub and put him on the potty. That must have been enough for him to make the connection, and now he will shout at me in the tub "OH NO I GOTTA PEEEEEEEEEE!!".
The hardest part of this transition isn't the pee, but the poop. Nothing quite like having to clean out cloth trainers full of poop... Good luck!
