HIPSTER™
—
the new way to carry your baby, in 9
DIFFERENT WAYS. No more achy arms and sore backs.
HIPSTER™ is a unique, ergonomic baby carrier with an
integrated hip seat to help you carry your little one
signicantly longer, more comfortably and eortlessly.
When used with the interchangeable carrier systems
(included), HIPSTER™ allows your baby more breathing
room to explore the world without feeling enclosed in.
Its wider belt provides optimal ergonomic back support,
distributing your baby’
s weight evenly throughout the
lower back and shoulders to help minimize any long
term effects from bad posture and fatigue. Designed
with a safe but quick release system, one simple
movement is all that is needed to get your little one
in and out in seconds, or even with just one hand.
