Abstract: A child carrying system for carrying a child includes a carrier portion having a top portion; a middle portion having a pair of tabs extending away from a center of the middle portion in a lateral direction; a pair of adjustment mechanisms, each adjustment mechanism fixedly attached to a respective tab of the pair of tabs; and a bottom portion. The child carrying system also includes a pair of straps, each strap having a first end and a second end. Each first end is fixedly attached proximate a respective top corner of the top portion. Each second end is detachably connected to an adjustment mechanism of the pair of adjustment mechanisms. A width of each strap of the pair of straps is wider than a conventional shoulder strap on a backpack.

Abstract: A child carrying system comprising: (1) a carrier portion configured to support a child within; (2) a pair of fabric shoulder straps respectively coupled at a first end to the carrier portion proximate a top corner of the carrier portion and uncoupled at a second end opposite the first end; (3) a respective adjustment mechanism coupled to each respective side of the carrier portion, each adjustment mechanism configured to adjustably engage one of the pair of shoulder straps proximate its second end; (4) a waist belt coupled to a bottom end of the carrier portion, the waist belt having two opposing ends configured to wrap around the user and secure to one another; and (5) a head support moveably engaged with the pair of fabric shoulder straps and configured to be moveable along the pair of fabric shoulder straps between a lowered configuration and a raised configuration.

Abstract: A dual-wrap child carrying system is configured to be worn by a person for carrying a child. The system includes a dual-wrap garment and a child support configured to releasably attach to the dual-wrap garment. The dual-wrap garment includes a primary wrap, a number of stays positioned in a back segment of the primary wrap for flexible support, and a secondary wrap. The primary wrap is configured to encircle the person and secure at a front side of the person. The secondary wrap includes a stretchable textile having a higher elasticity than a material of the primary wrap and is configured to encircle the person over the primary wrap and secure at the front side of the person.

Abstract: A garment with an integrated carry system has a front panel, a rear panel, a first arm opening, a second arm opening, a first leg opening, a second leg opening, a first shoulder strap, and a second shoulder strap. The first shoulder strap comprises a first end coupled proximate the first arm opening and a second end coupled to the front panel proximate the first leg opening, where the first shoulder strap is removably received in a first compartment formed in the front panel intermediate the first arm opening and the first leg opening. The second shoulder strap has a first end coupled proximate the second arm opening and a second end coupled to the front panel proximate the second leg opening, where the second shoulder strap is removably received in a second compartment formed in the front panel intermediate the second arm opening and the second leg opening.

Abstract: An upper body garment for supporting an infant adjacent the chest and upper belly of a wearer that includes a tubular garment body made from a stretchable fabric and comprising a front panel and a back panel, one or more breast panels extending from a top portion of the back panel and over the shoulders of the wearer; and a pouch panel extending from a lower portion of the breast panels. The pouch panel is secured along a U-shaped seam to an inside surface of the front panel to form a pouch with a top opening proximate the lower portion of the breast panels. The stretchable fabric is a two-way stretchable fabric with an increased capability for elastic expansion within a substantially horizontal plane when the wearer is in an upright position.
