This revolutionary 5-in-1 carrier is designed for maximum flexibility, giving parents and their babies a traditional baby-wearing experience plus more! With its unique transitional modes, the Hip Rider enables you to carry your baby in five ways - from facing-in, out-facing, or back carry; to two new hip seat modes (inward and outward facing) from infant to toddler. And thanks to adjustable padded straps, a full lumbar waist belt, and a supportive hip seat, this carrier gives extra support that helps distribute your little one's weight while lightening the load for you. With its optional head support, your baby will be comfortably cradled as you explore the world together. The easy-access side storage pocket lets you keep your essential items nearby too!
