Hallelujah, with so many different baby carriers and variations – keeping track of them all is sometimes not so easy, even for us. And what about you? That’s why we thought we’d compare two baby carriers so that it’s easier for you to make a decision. Today we have chosen one of our bestsellers, the Omni 360. You can buy the Omni 360 in two different versions: the Omni 360 Cotton made of 100 percent premium cotton or the Omni 360 Cool Air Mesh with breathable mesh fabric.
As always, there is no “better” or “worse” here, otherwise we could simply take one style off the market. No, the decisive factors are personal taste, the attitude to certain topics such as sustainability or individual living conditions and one’s own activity level. Because in terms of functionality, both baby carriers have the same advantages: The practical crossover shoulder straps and the wide, padded lumbar support of the Omni carrier protect your back, while you can carry your child ergonomically in four different positions – the inwards carry (from birth), the outwards carry (from around 5-6 months), the hip carry and the back carry (both from around 6 months).
Omni 360 Cotton – for those who like it natural
There are parents who attach great importance to their baby only having contact with natural materials, especially at the beginning. In their nurseries, for example, they prefer wooden toys and clothes made of silk, tree wool or merino wool – in the pram perhaps a sheepskin and some even use cloth nappies. So if you want the flexibility of an innovative carrier combined with natural, high-quality and cuddly cotton, the Ergobaby Omni 360 Cotton is absolutely the right choice for you.
Omni 360 Cool Air Mesh – for active parents who like it airy
Is your baby born in the spring or summer months? Or do you live or travel in warmer climates? You get sweaty more easily (which can be exacerbated by a baby or hormones – believe us) or are perhaps also very physically active with your child in the carrier? The breathable Cool Air Mesh material keeps your baby at an optimal temperature and is the ideal choice for active parents who want to wear their child while hiking or travelling – and want to stay pleasantly fresh themselves.
New colours for a cool summer
Have you already found your favourite? If you are still unsure, we recommend that you go to a specialist baby store to see, touch and try out the different carriers. After all, the proof of the pudding is in the eating! We have good news for all of you who are considering our Omni 360 Cool Air Mesh: The light and airy carrier is now available in two extra-cool new colours: “Vintage Indigo” and “Charcoal”. Both are sure to be on dads’ hit lists .
