Need a breathable baby carrier- suggestions?

I'm just back from a trip to the zoo and I wore DS in my Boba wrap. Holy sweatballs batman. It's only about 70 here and LO and I were really overheated after just 20 minutes. I have the original Ergo, but I'm thinking that may even be too warm come summer. Can anyone recommend a carrier they like that's lightweight? TIA

    Loking forward to answers on this! I have a k'tan which I LOVE but the other day was around 70 degrees and although he was still happy, I was a sweaty mess! Is love something for summer so we can be outside to play with dd! Although maybe my current one will help me sweat out some remaining pregnancy weight!!

    Moby is very hot! If you like the idea of wrapping I would suggest a woven wrap. They don't run as hot as jersey material. If I had to pick one wrap it would be a Didymos Hemp Indio. They come in a bunch of different colors. The other suggestion I would make is a linen ring sling. Like from Sleeping Baby Productions. Or you can get a Mai Tei if budget is an issue. I personally love my woven wraps.

    Thanks! I have a sakura bloom sling that I love and used when my DD was about a year old but I can't seem to figure out how to get the newborn in it comfortably despite the many You Tube videos.
