Recommend your favorite warm/hot weather wrap!

I'm looking for recommendations for wraps that perform well in hot and humid weather. We live in NC and my kids are little radiators. I've been a SSC mama for years but would like to get into wrapping. Thanks!

Re: Recommend your favorite warm/hot weather wrap!

  • I've been thinking of Tekhni wraps with Repreve and have tried a Bali Breeze and just want to know what else real life mamas love.

  • 100% cotton and cotton/linen blends are both great choices.

  • We just went to a babywearing class where we actually figured out wraps! They also recommended the Wrapsody breeze for summer
  • I have a vali breeze that I love for summer, but I'm considering buying an active or breeze ktan for my car
  • How old and how big is your baby?

    For a squish, Vatanai Naglitki (old, thin whales) is hands down my fave. Perfect in a size 3.5m.

    For a larger baby or a toddler my fave is my Heartiness handwoven silk blend. It's light, breathable, yet very supportive and not at all touchy like some silk content wraps. I love Didy Indios, but would stay away from 100% cotton for an older or bigger baby. I love my hemp Indio, but I couldn't use it in a NC summer. Maybe a linen Indio?

  • How big is your baby? I like the boba wrap. I live in a so-so hot and humid city as well (not as hot and humid as NC) and I'm quite comfortable wearing this in the summer.
  • Wool! I know it sounds a bit counterintuitive, but wool is a wonderful fibre choice for temperature regulating. 
    My didymos jade triblend was a wonderful summer wrap too. (cotton, hemp and linen) Linen is a great choice too.
