Hands-Free Nurturing
Baby
carriers have been used for centuries. Babies are able to observe the
world from the security of their parents chest, hip or back -- and
parents enjoy the freedom and convenience of a comfortable carrier.
Babywearing lets you go about daily life while keeping your child close
to your heart.
Based on traditional Chinese mei tai carriers, the Napsack has several unique design innovations.

Comfortable Straps
Napsack
baby carriers have contoured, oar-shaped straps to distribute weight
evenly across a wide section of your back, without restricting arm
movement.
The
fabric does not cup across the shoulder and upper arm like a
traditional wrap, so there is no restriction of your arm movement. The
straps taper back in at the tips to allow for easy tying.
Napsacks
can be worn as a front or a back carrier. Like a wrap, the wide straps
can be comfortably and flatteringly crossed over your chest, or
gathered and worn straight over each shoulder like a rucksack.
The
upper straps are set at an angle slightly more vertical than 45
degrees, which allows you to snug the baby close to your chest. This
provides longer and more weightless babywearing, with less strain on
your back and shoulders.
Versatile Design
The
hourglass shape to the body reduces bulk and increases air flow and
comfort. Smaller babies often find the narrower seat more comfortable
for their little legs, while older babies do not feel as confined.
There is a layer of sturdy canvas hidden inside the body panels for strength.
The top curve of the body can be flipped down for babies and toddlers who prefer to ride with their arms out of the carrier.
Beautiful Fabrics
All
cotton Napsacks are machine washable. Occasionally we make limited
quantities of special Napsacks using various luxury materials such as
silk, brocades, velvet and suede.
Safety
Only the highest quality materials are used. Each Napsack is reinforced both internally and externally. All Napsack Baby Carriers have been tested to BS EN 13209 which is the British and European safety standard for baby carriers. Napsack Baby Carriers have also passed stringent flammability and toxicity testing. Our twill holds the Oko-Tex 100 certificate.
