Boba X, Whimsical Whales (SSC232) Check Availability

You're welcome to hire this like any of our other items.  It's also available to buy as ex-library stock because the lining (navy blue) is starting to fade a little (but it is still perfectly sound and exterior is in great condition, with all the accessories). Hire like a normal library sling and if you want to keep it, just email to request this and we'll charge the sale price to your card.

Overview

This is such a lovely fabric - who doesn't love a whale!

This adjustable buckle carrier (in a similar category to the Tula Free to Grow and Mamaruga Zensling), has a width adjuster at the base of the panel to narrow the fabric for smaller babies and an adjuster at the top of the panel to reduce the height where needed.  However, it's also designed for bigger slinglets too, and even comes with padded 'toddler extenders' which zip into the base of the panel to make a comfy carry for a much older child (max 20kg).

The optional hood is detachable and there's a zipped pocked to store it at the top of the panel.

Although there's a well padded waistband and padded sections to prevent rubbing on children's thighs (and on your sides where the buckle comes in) the main body of the panel is an unpadded canvas, so not too hot - a nice compromise in our opinion.

Unlike the Tula the straps can we worn crossed over your back (X straps) or like a rucksack (H straps), and it's got an integrated chest belt for back carrying children (once they can sit unaided).  

Adjustability and X straps of the Zensling, but the H straps and back carry features of the Tula?  We had to have one in the library...!

Plus, did I mention the whales?
