About the fabrics

Our slings are made out of a variety of woven stretch cotton blend fabrics. Our fabrics stretch just a bit widthwise, not lengthwise. The stretch is similar to that of stretch denim, just enough to add comfort but not so much that the sling stretches out. Our slings are not made of knit fabrics.
 

  • Stretch Twill:    A strong, durable fabric characterized by diagonal micro ridges on the face of the fabric.     Stretch twill is often used for khaki pants, for example.     Appropriate year round.     Softens nicely after washing.
  • Stretch Sateen:   Sateen describes a kind of weave which makes a smoother finish than traditional weaves.    It has more thread surface on the face of the cloth than other basic weaves giving a softer hand and more lustrous look. Think of very high thread count bed sheets with a touch of stretch.     This is our thinnest and coolest fabric, ideal for summer but wearable year round.

Why should you use a pouch Sling?
          There are many other types of carriers with bulky padding, ties, rings and buckles, and others that require elaborate wrapping...sometimes the simplest idea is the best!   I have tried almost every kind of carrier there is, and I always come back to a simple stretch pouch sling.   I have a 4+ year old and I can still sling him in a pouch sling if I need to, and I can wear my 5 month old in the same size sling.   
 

Pouch slings are:

  • the easiest and most versatile carrier to use, whether for a newborn or a 3 year old.
  • quick and easy to put on and take off
  • compact to pack in a purse or diaper bag
  • easy to care for

Find your Size! - Slinglings Information

Getting the proper size is very important and can sometimes be difficult if you haven't worn a pouch sling before. Please email us with any size or fit questions, we have a handy sizing chart which you will find above.   

We are happy to offer exchanges for new condition slings if you order the wrong size, please
email first for instructions.
There is no specific weight/age limit.   Generally speaking, most children stop wanting to be carried in a sling by age 3 to 4 and 35 lbs.   In most cases, your child will stop wanting to be carried before they outgrow the sling.
