The shoulder straps of the Wompat Ring Tai are adjusted with small aluminium sling rings. The shoulder straps are made from double layer of woven wrap and they include light padding on the shoulder section. Shoulder straps can be worn 10 cm wide & ruck sack style or you can open them to their maximum width of 20 cm and they will cup nicely over your shoulder. Ring Tai is very comfortable for the back carry with big kids but it's also a great carrier for the front carry. Our standard ring tai model has shoulder straps that are only 1,1 meters long - short straps are very handy if you don't like the straps hanging on the ground while putting the baby on your back. We recommend a little longer straps, if you plan to carry on the front side for example 1,5 m or 1,7 m. Longer shoulder straps are also needed, if you like to do finishes with the ends of straps on top of your chest (like the pictures below).

Wash the whole carrier only when needed. You can wash the Wompat in a machine, use a program for delicates & cool water (30 Celsius). Fix a sock or piece of cloth around the ring to protect the paint. Use only a small amount of liquid washing detergent. No fabric softeners. Hang dry. Shape the carrier while still moist. The panel and the hood can be ironed: cotton / linen with medium heat and wool / silk with low heat. Do NOT iron any of the padded parts! The panel can shrink 1-2 cm with the first wash. Facebook 0
