Wallypop: Wallypop Babywearing: Silk Slings

Wallypop Silk Slings and Carriers

How can you beat silk? Whether you've got a fancy event coming up, or you're just wanting to indulge yourself in a little luxury, Wallypop Silk Slings are a wonderful addition to your sling wardrobe!

Silk is so fun, and wonderfully adaptable. These slings look at home with your fancy evening wear, and equally as charming paired with jeans and a T-shirt. They are lightweight and very compact. But I think my favorite feature is the feel of the fabric - I'm a texture person, and the texture of silk is incomparable to any other fabric.

The most common questions we receive about our silk slings are:

1. Are they washable? Absolutely! All of our slings are machine washable.
2. Are they slippery and hard to keep tight? No. We use silk dupioni, which is kind of nubby. Additionally, we use small rings in the ring slings to minimize slippage.
3. Are they hot? Silk is actually insulating, so it makes a perfect choice for fall, winter, or spring. (Silk is a natural fabric, so it's breathable and will still be comfortable in the summer, but if you're primarily looking for a way to carry your baby in the heat, you might consider a cotton or solarveil sling instead.)

Wallypop offers a variety of slings and carriers in 100% silk. Please use the links below to read more about each particular type of sling.

Available Options Explained:

Add Pocket to Tail or Middle: A pocket will be sewn to the sling's tail, or to the middle of the carrier. This pocket provides a handy place to stash some money or small items, and also serves as a storage bag for the wrap itself. A small carrying strap is included. Tail pocket for ring or wrap slings only. Middle pocket for wraps or pouches only. Pocket on pouch is smaller and cannot generally be used as a storage bag for the carrier.
Add Toy Ring: A small toy ring is securely attached just above the rings, enabling you to attach a small toy for your baby. I actually used mine as a place to keep my keys! not available on wraps

Please use common sense when using Wallypop slings and carriers. Keep a hand on your baby when bending, stooping, walking through a crowded area, etc. You can expect years of service from your Wallypop products, but take care to look over your slings and carriers before each use. Do not use your sling or carrier if the stitching has ripped or the straps are getting worn out. Limited wearing instructions are available here. Wallypop cannot be responsible for misuse, breeches of common sense, or any injuries that may result from the use of our slings.
