Guide Review - TaylorMade Unpadded Baby Ring Slings
TaylorMade slings are available in sizes small to extra large, and the company's site has a convenient size chart to help sling-buyers find the one that works best for their body. The slings are made of regular cotton, organic cotton, hemp blend, linen blend or silk, and each fabric is available in a range of colors. All of the slings are attractive, but the silk slings and the dyed cotton Batik slings are absolutely gorgeous, and would make a luxurious gift for a new mom or sling aficionado.
Like most ring slings, TaylorMade baby slings can be used for a variety of baby-carrying needs. Tiny infants will be comfortable in a front carry or cradle hold, while toddlers may like to sit on your hip, face forward or ride on your back. The sturdy fabric and rings make all of these options possible and comfortable with the TaylorMade sling.
For outdoorsy families, TaylorMade also offers unpadded ring slings in mesh fabric that can be used in the water, and the same slings in Solarveil fabric that adds extra sun protection and can be used on land or in water.
