Go for it if you...
You want one carrier that lasts from newborn to toddler without an infant insert
You walk or wear for long stretches and need a hip belt that saves your back
You live somewhere warm and want the most breathable fabric
Independent fabric certification matters to you
You want a quick up-and-down carry for errands and the early months
You like natural linen with independent OEKO-TEX certification
You want something packable that slips in a bag
You are comfortable learning the tail adjustment
The main thing to know
At full price this is a premium carrier; the breathable mesh and full newborn-to-toddler range are what you are paying for.
A ring sling rests on one shoulder, so it is best for shorter carries rather than all-day wear with a heavier toddler.
Skip this if you...
You want the lowest-cost option for occasional short carries
You prefer the cocooned feel of a wrap for a brand-new newborn
You need two-shoulder support for long walks or a heavy child
You want a no-learning-curve buckle carrier
Neither of these quite what you're looking for?
