looking for a summer wrap...

Willo · Mar 25th, 2012, 10:56 AM

and have no idea what to go for. Anyone recommend one and what size would suit???? I'm just over 5ft 4in (about 164cm) and average build.

been looking at Ellaroo and Ellevill but all suggestions welcome.

Thanks

Oh and I live in Ireland, so Summer would not be baking hot normally

I am hankering after an Ellaroo Kristen myself. DH says I have to sell Amy's 2 old buggies to finance this lol.

My storch is 4.6 and is just about right for the carries I have tried so far. I'm 5ft 1 and a size 16.

I'm also looking at an Ellaroo, either Kirsten or Claudia. Can't decide!

People have said they would make a good summer wrap

Thanks for the replies girls. The more I look, the more I see that look lovely. I think I'm edging towards Ellevill but still searching at the mo. It's so hard to decide.

I have a victoria sling lady summer stretchy and its great.

I use it with my 20lb daughter and she feels so safe in it and it doesn't feel to hot.

Its only about £15 i think as well

Some good wraps for hot weather are Wrapsody Bali Breeze (or any gauze wraps), Ellaroo, or Vatanai. Linen wraps can also be very cool, but some can take a bit of breaking in.

I have a Jade on the way from Ellevill and I can't wait!

It is a bit cushier than the others mentioned above though, so won't be as cool. The kind of carry you do makes a huge difference too. Single layer carries are much more breathable.
