It offers four carry positions, front carry facing in from 7 pounds, and front-in, front-out, and back carry once baby reaches 12 pounds, so the carrier can adapt as a baby grows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe shell and mesh are 100% polyester, with shoulder straps padded in polyurethane foam, body padding in a polyethylene\/polyurethane foam blend, and a waist belt foam of EVA. One-touch magnetic buckles are designed to attach with one hand, and the carrier includes a breathable air-mesh back panel, padded shoulder straps, structured head support, and a built-in UPF 50 sunshade. It can be machine washed cold on the gentle cycle with mild detergent and air dried; chlorine bleach, fabric softener, and ironing should be skipped.
