Napsack Baby Carriers are UK made "mei tai" style carriers with several unique design innovations:
-
Unique "oar shaped" straps - Napsack's wide, wrap-like straps distribute weight across a wide section of your back, narrowing on the shoulders and at the ends so not to restrict arm movement and to allow for easy tying. 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 body design - Hour glass shaped body reduces bulk of carrier, allows for forward facing carry, and increases comfort for younger babies with legs out. The body panel also has a layer of sturdy canvas hidden inside for strength. The body of the carrier has a top curve that can be flipped down for babies and toddlers who like to be carried with arms out.
Napsacks can be used from birth-14kg (2.5 years approx). As the straps have no buckles, there are a variety of ways of tying the carrier to suit the wearers confidence levels and the age/size of your baby, allowing for greater versatility than a soft-structured carrier. 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. They are also reversible, meaning you can choose which side most suits your wardrobe that day! All cotton Napsack carriers are machine washable.
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.
