The Hematite woven baby sling is a timeless and practical choice for babywearing from the first days of life. Made of high-quality combed cotton and featuring a broken twill weave, this wrap is soft to the touch, easy to use, and gentle on sensitive newborn skin. Thanks to the balanced weave structure, it offers just the right amount of diagonal stretch for a snug and secure carry, without bouncing or sagging.

This baby wrap carriers is 4.2 m long – slightly shorter than the standard size. A size 5 wrap is a great option for performing basic ties like the Front Wrap Cross Carry (FWCC) and Pocket Wrap Cross Carry (PWCC), especially for parents wearing sizes XS–S. It also allows for more compact carries, such as the Kangaroo Carry or Simple Backpack Carry, for wearers in sizes M–L.

If you wear size L or above and prefer more flexibility in tying techniques, we recommend opting for a longer wrap (size 6 or more) for added comfort and versatility.
