Why an Olives & Applesauce carrier?

Amazingly comfortable.
Each carrier has an infant insert built into the carrier. So, there isn't a need to buy one separately to use the carrier with a newborn.
Each carrier is made in the USA, and all but one component of the carrier is made in the USA.
And check out the diagram below to see all the fabulous features!

The Full Buckle carrier, sometimes called a soft structured carrier or SSC. The full buckle carrier includes chest straps. The full buckle carrier has a padded waist band to help distribute the weight of your child to your hips and waist. The straps for this style are short straps that have a female buckle piece at the end of each strap that buckles into a male counterpart that is sewn into the body. The main benefits of this style are ease of use and very easy learning curve. They are extremely user friendly for people that are not used to wearing a child or using a carrier. They are also great for snowy or rainy weather or places where you might not want to chance dragging your straps on the ground when you transfer your child in or out of the carrier.

The Half Buckle carrier or sometimes called a hybrid carrier has the same padded waist as the full buckle carrier, it helps redistribute the weight of your child to your hips and away from your shoulders. This carrier has long straps much like a traditional Mei Tai that you wrap around your body and child and then tie to secure it. One of the major benefits to this are being able to tie the straps in various ways to help offset the weight of a heavier child. Another great thing about the half buckle is that wearers of vastly different sizes will find it just as comfortable to wear because they will be able to tie the straps in various ways to suit their body style. The half buckle may be more comfortable for some wearers using the carrier in a front carry because there will be fabric straps going across their back rather than the webbing from the full buckle. One of the other great benefits to the half buckle is that it can be worn with a much younger child because the straps can be crossed over the baby's back much in the same style as a Mei Tai, this provides the needed back support and narrows the gap at the edge of the carrier.

"We are extremely proud of the fact that our carriers are hand crafted in Michigan by careful and talented individuals. Our goal is to source all of our raw materials from US based and producing companies whenever possible and at this time we are meeting that goal with over 90% of our materials. We do this in a effort to support our economy on a local level and to help promote the economy that purchases our products. We promise that our carriers will always be manufactured in the United States according to fair labor standards and that we will continue to grow to provide more jobs to people in our country as we are able to. Thank you for your support in helping us help others." ~Olives & Applesauce
