Baby Sling From Germany
(Scroll Down for Slings)Unique, beautiful patterns and colors
The company's founder and fabric developer is a textile engineer
All cotton used in the Storchenwiege Baby Sling is from controlled biological cotton farms (okeo tex).
The weave differs from all other slings in the yarn strength used.
In both directions (warp and woof ) of the cross weave Storchenwiege uses a double strength, not simple thread. Other wraparound baby slings use the double strength yarn only in one direction.
Not only does the strong weave help the durability of the baby sling, it also holds the tied knot better as it doesn't give after the baby is placed in it.
This special weave does not influence the elasticity which is necessary to embrace your baby.
The fabric is prewashed and preshrunk. This ensures the fabric has a minimal shrinkage of 2.5%. Most fabrics have far more.
All slings are washed and dried without tension on the fabric.
No chemicals are used in any of the proceedure.
Storchenwiege is manufactured in Sachsen, Germany, under strict environmental regulations.
Storchenwiege Baby Slings are Oeko Text 100 certified
Storchenwiege Baby Slings have a double hemline for durability and the correct embracing of your baby's back
All Storchenwiege Baby Slings have tapered ends to ensure easy tying
All Storchenwiege Baby Slings come with detailed instructions. The instructions differ from others on the market as they give some extra hints in tying the sling. This is great for beginners as well as "Sling Fanatics." The instructions were developed with the help of a certified teacher of baby wearing from the Dresden, Germany, school of baby wearing instructors. It shows. Sizing Chart
Feedback.."the Storchenwiege arrived today. I am extremely pleased with the sling. It is simply gorgeous-I
can't stop touching it. The fabric is brilliantly colored and is very soft
(much softer than my Didymos). My husband carried our older son(45 lbs) in
it already and said it was fantastic. We just returned from a trip to the
park so that I could have a turn carrying our baby! It is a terrific length
for the rucksack carry, no extra fabric to wrap around and around my waist.
I am also amazed at how firmly the knot stays in place, therefore keeping
him in a much more snug way. I also have been tucking the fabric at the
shoulder when I tie, as you suggested, and that has made a nicer fit as
well. Thank you so much! I really wish that there were some way that I
could afford another. I really love the Inka pattern-it just looks so
beautiful. Is it as lovely in person? Maybe someday, somehow, I can afford
one in a 4.1-then I would have a sling for all occasions.
Also, I must mention that the instructions booklet is superb. The why and
how of carrying children is just so informative. Anyone considering wearing
their baby should read that first and only use a wraparound sling. Since
receiving my Didymos, and the information about wearing babies facing out, I
cringe whenever I see someone carrying a child in that manner. The
documentation in the Storchenwiege is really well written and even more
specific-very impressive.
Thank you Beate, for your helping me make the decision to get the
Storchenwiege. It is really a special purchase and investment especially
since I already own a Didymos. (I just wish that I had a size 5 instead of
the size 6 Didymos). In the unlikely event that you should ever have a
return on, or know of a secondhand 4.1 Inka, please let me know."
