This is the first real outdoor specific softshell carrier. I have so much excitement for the Poco™ Soft Child Carrier and how many more babies will get on the trail because of it. Having a specific carrier for hiking and outdoor adventures makes hiking with your baby even easier. This carrier is also great for travel if you don't want to pack your hard-frame with you. This carrier is ideal for new baby hikers under the age of 6 months that aren't riding in the hardframe carrier yet. Although, My 2 year loves this a lot too as he can be worn so closely on me.
I am an avid hiking mom in the Canadian Rockies that has hiked hundreds of trails with my babies and I am a big fan of this carrier for so many reasons that I will share below.
