Ellaroo Organic Ring Sling in MalayRing Slings:

Ring slings are made with fabric that gets pulled through 2 rings to adjust the size of the pouch. By having the adjustability, you can share the carrier with others, regardless of size differences. Most people find ring slings to be especially useful to nurse hands free. The biggest complaint about ring slings is that they utilize only one shoulder for carries. Ring slings can become uncomfortable with heavy babies and toddlers when used for long periods of time. However, ring slings are wonderful for short trips and easy in/out. Ring slings can come with no padding, lightly padded, or heavily padded edges. Ring Slings can be used from infant through toddler in front, back (after 1 year old) and hip carry positions.

Why I love ring slings:

  • Almost infinitely adjustable
  • Can fit wearers of different sizes easily
  • Good for newborn nursing
  • Excellent for hip carry with toddlers who want to get up/down a lot
  • Tail offers sun protection and modesty cover while nursing

Ring Slings are great for:

  • Newborns
  • Children who want to get up and down a lot
  • Caregivers who want something fast and easy
  • Quick trips

Not ideal for:

  • Hiking
  • Back carries
  • People with some shoulder and back problems (due to being one-shouldered)
