{"product_id":"hipster™-air","title":"HIPSTER™ Air","description":"\u003cdiv data-birch-description=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe HIPSTER Air is a compact baby carrier built around an inflatable hip seat that packs down small for travel. It is designed for use from newborn, with the Infant Insert accessory, up to around 2 years old or 15 kg \/ 33 lbs, and it supports 3 carry positions: facing in, facing forward, and back carry. The hip belt fits waists up to 98 cm (38.5 in), and the carrier folds down to a packed size of 18 x 16 x 14 cm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe carrier is made from 100% recycled polyester fabric and seat material with plastic buckles. It features a high waist belt for lumbar support, a weight-redistributing 3D hip seat with anti-slip padding, adjustable head support for baby, adjustable back support for the parent, padded leg openings, and two side pockets for storage. A built-in hand pump inflates the seat, and a quick-release valve deflates it within seconds; it also includes a built-in travel bag that stores as small as a makeup bag. Safety leg straps are included for baby, the mesh construction is intended to improve airflow and help reduce overheating for both parent and baby, and the carrier is machine washable (remove the plastic hip seat first and wash on a cold, gentle cycle, then lay flat to dry). It is backed by a 2-year product warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eErgonomic hip seat supports waists up to 98 cm (38.5 in)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompact folded size of 18 x 16 x 14 cm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInflatable hip seat that packs down for travel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUsable from newborn with the Infant Insert accessory up to around 2 years old\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMade with 100% recycled polyester fabric and seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePlastic buckles\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHigh waist belt for lumbar support\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeight-redistributing 3D hip seat with anti-slip padding\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable head support for baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable back support for the parent\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePadded leg openings for baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTwo side pockets for storage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in hand pump for inflating the seat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuick-release valve deflates the seat within seconds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuilt-in travel bag that stores as small as a makeup bag\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSafety leg straps for baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConverts between 3 carry positions: facing in, facing forward, and back carry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMachine washable\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMesh construction improves airflow to reduce overheating for parent and baby\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTrustScore\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTrustScore is Birch's proprietary rating, from 0 to 100, built from 50+ signals that reflect what actually matters to parents — safety, materials, recalls, certifications and quality.
