The Acadian Aerial Carrier is a structured buckle carrier made from breathable linen, built for front carry facing inward or back carry. It is recommended for babies 2 to 24 months and meets the ASTM F2236 test standard for 7 to 45 lbs, with caregivers encouraged to judge readiness by baby's size, keeping the mid ear and airways above the carrier's top panel. It comes in a dusky sage green colorway with color-matched straps, mesh, and buckles.
The carrier is woven from 100% natural European linen with a polyester mesh lining and nylon straps. Padded straps and a full lumbar support belt help distribute weight for longer carries, and the seat panel adjusts using snaps on the waist belt to accommodate a growing baby. It is manufactured in the Philippines and Vietnam, and it has been acknowledged as Hip-Healthy by the International Hip Dysplasia Institute. For care, it can be hand or machine washed in cool water on a gentle cycle and should be hung or laid flat to dry.
The foldable headrest provides extra head support when raised and can be folded down for shade or nursing. Some wearers find the shoulder straps sit close to the neck during extended wear.

Absolutely incredible. First off, this thing is so comfortable for both mom and baby. Good back support, padded shoulders and so breathable. Baby is cozy and aupported inside without having to have it so snug to your body it feels like they cant breathe. Its also just so beautiful and you can really feel the quality of the material. I could not be happier. This thing gets used several hours every single day. Worth the money time and time again. If your on the fence, go for it!!

I really like the carrier on first wear but then a snap broke that first day when adjusting them. However it was pretty easy to file a claim to get it replaced. Do wish though that they covered the cost of returning the broken carrier since it’s not my fault, but I appreciate that the process was at least easy. Currently waiting on the replacement carrier but hoping for better experience with new one.

I really wanted this carrier to be the end all be all but it's not. Loved it at first but the more I wear it the more flaws I notice. If you are not prone to back and shoulder pain you could probably get away with it. I have found where the strap connects to the main body of the carrier is too narrow. It also turns on it's side instead of staying flat like other carriers. This causes the shoulder straps to ride up more and the baby has more room to lean out putting stress on the back. You'll notice other brands are wider at this junction and lay flat. I discovered for my shoulders I prefer the h strap instead of cross/x straps like this one. I do love the fabric and color options. Good luck to the brand! I do like my Wild bird carrier wrap combo and wish I would of just put my money towards that one.
