Step 2: Choose Your Textile
Waffle
A year-round favorite, our Waffle Collection is cushy, comfy, and airy - an easy, forgiving, and supportive textile for both new and seasoned wearers.
Lightweight, flowy, and breathable, Waffle feels like slipping into your cozies, only with more support.
Weft
A seasonless favorite, our Weft collection is a nubby medium-weight blend of raw silk and cotton, full of character and perfect for year-round babywearing. Supportive with a cushy hand feel, it softens and drapes beautifully with use.
Our current obsession.
Simple
Lightweight, breathable, and incredibly supportive, Simple Silk is built for adventure. It dries quickly, packs down small, and offers rock-solid support, perfect for wherever life takes you, including water play at the beach or pool.
It’s our favorite textile for summer.
Maven
Maven silk is lightweight, strong, and supportive - soft, breathable, and ideal for year-round wear. Whether you're new to babywearing, carrying a newborn, or an experienced wearer with a toddler in tow, Maven is a favorite or everyone.
If we had to choose one carrier for almost any occasion, this would be it.
Venice
Venice features rotating raw silks typically woven with a heavier-weight yarn, giving it exceptional strength, structure, and incredibly comfortable support.
The loftier handloom feel can make adjustments more deliberate, which often appeals to experienced wearers.
Step 3: Choose a Color and Leather Option
Leather
Our signature Italian leather breaks in beautifully, offering added structure on both the shoulder strap and the chest strap.
Its natural elasticity creates an exceptionally comfortable carry, and as you move, the leather molds to your body, providing both strength and gentle give.
No Leather
Non-leather carriers offer a clean, streamlined look. While leather is primarily an aesthetic choice that adds a touch more structure, our textiles are fully engineered to support your little one without the need for added materials.
Non-leather Sakura Blooms are a beautiful, minimal option, especially for our vegan-conscious customers.
