Kieswijzer draagzakken door Slingomama.nl

Er zijn veel babydragers op de markt, zowel ergonomische als niet-ergonomische. Omdat het kiezen van de geschikte draagzak niet zo eenvoudig is, heeft Slingomama een kieswijzer draagzakken opgesteld.

Didymos India Stonegrey with wool unboxing

Didymos India Stonegrey with wool is made from 60% organic cotton and 40% wool. The weight of the wrap is 200 gr/m2. This is a medium thickness wrap. The wraps felt soft right from the box. The color is medium grey.

This wrap came out in an extremely limited quantity.

Vatanai Whales Denim Blue

The Vatanai Whales Denim Blue - made  100% cotton. This is a very thick Vatanai wrap. Forget that Vatanai's have always been considered thin summer wraps. This whales is totally different: thick and heavy, very toddle proof but still flexible enough for a newborn. I love how it feels with my 2-months baby girl.

The color of the Vatanai Whales Denim Blue is denim, blue and sort of red-dark orange-brown-brick. The last one is really tricky to catch on the photo. I have done my best!

I don't think it will require a lot of work to break it in, though it's not really butter soft right out of the box. It feels hard, but the yarns and the type of weave give an impression that it will soften en fluff up after washing.

On our Facebook page someone noted that the reverse side looks rather pale. Indeed, it's rather contrasting to the right side, but I'd say that it looks dusty, as if covered with the star dust.

And this is the image we have received from the Vatanai itself. The colors are not really correct, even totally uncorrect, I'd say!

Didymos India Hanf Natur unboxing

Didymos India Hanf Natur is made from 50% organic cotton and 50% hemp. The weight of the wrap is 310 gr/m2. This is the heaviest wrap Didymos has made so far. The wrap feels very heavy and thick. It will probably take quite some work to break it in and the wrap will be not easy to handle in the beginning. For this reason such wraps are recommended for experienced babywearers.

The color of the wrap is natural white.

Didymos 1975 Azur-Wolle unboxing

Didymos 1975 Azur-Wolle is made from 60% organic cotton and 40% wool. The weight of the wrap is 185 gr/m2 which means that the wrap has medium thickness. It feels incredibly soft and warm right from the box. The first impression is that the wrap should be very moldable and easy to handle. The high percentage of wool will make it a warm and cozy wrap for the coming cold season. Washing and wearing should fluff the wool up.

The wrap has a deep dark blue warp and off-white weft.
