hava slings

HAVA was designed to marry the best parts of all sling designs into one, resulting in a baby carrier that exceeds the comfort and usability offered by others. Most ring slings on the market are designed in such a way that the fabric at the shoulder and back runs too narrow, or is sewn without pleats, so that it cannot spread out generously across the back for weight distribution. HAVA is designed to spread wide, with pleats, for maximum comfort. Another issue with many slings is a poorly designed padded sling for the mass market. Most padded slings are one-size-fits-all. To pull this off, manufacturers either make the slings extra-large, which results in unsafe, uncomfortable babywearing for petite or average sized adults. Babies should be worn at or above the waist - high, visible and kissable. When babies are worn hanging low in a sling, they are unsafe, and parents experience discomfort. Some one-size-fits-all padded slings are designed to have elasticized rails. This causes many issues when it comes to wearing the baby correctly in the sling. The rails stay close to the parent due to elastic, but baby is able to fall into the hammock. HAVA features five sizes (and no elastic!), so that adjustability and usability are not compromised.
