Ring slings are a well known version of traditional baby carriers. Some, like Over the Shoulder Baby Holder, have thick padding along both edges, making them bulky and difficult to store. Others, such as the Ella Roo baby sling, have lighter padding. And Taylor Made and Zolo Wear slings have no padding. All ring slings have a long "tail", which is threaded through a pair of rings and adjusted to size. Many people express concern about slipping, which can occur, especially with the silkier sateen fabrics available. Slipping is a big concern if the sling is adjusted to the larger sizes, leaving little "tail" left to secure the sling. And when adjusted to the smaller sizes, that tail becomes very long and can make its way into closed doors, food, dirt, and all kinds of things.
A HugaMonkey sling needs no adjusting. It's custom fit to your body, so your baby can be worn in the same size sling from birth to age 3 with no adjustments and no slipping. There's no excessive tail or bulky padding, which not only lowers the cost, but makes storing and carrying a HugaMonkey sling a piece of cake.
