Soul slings double layer linen ring sling - review

I just got my hands on one of the double-layer linens from Soul slings (find them at http://www.soulslings.com) and oh yes. Hello sturdy summer beater. Reversible, impeccably sewn, beautifully packaged (good to know if gifting) and cheap. Under $60 aud makes this almost cheaper than I can DIY. 

With a 6kg demo doll this is so easy to adjust, and "Henry" (I liked Harry better, but Audrey insisted...) sat snugly and comfortably. 

I supported his head with the tail tucked under the top rail, but clearly I made him look way too comfortable. 

The gathered shoulder spreads easily and even with 15kgs of child sits well without digging. 

I am loving the simple and classy color combos. My husband asked if I could show him how to use it, which speaks volumes (he's wrapped happily but never shown interest in a sling!). 

Verdict? Brilliant baby shower gift. I love ring slings for newborns to toddlers. They're light, compact, versatile, breastfeeding-friendly and relatively simple. Soul slings have just made them very easy on the pocket as well, and I am happy to support a company with ethical labor conditions and fair pay agreements in place. The double-layer linens come in a variety of color combinations (you can pop over to ... To see the full range) and I've broken this one in easily with a few washes, a bit of tumbling in the dryer and a little wear.
