Some people have asked about the differences between the original Scootababy™ and new design. Here are the major changes:
- Added stretchy binding on the edges of the fleece shoulder - makes for an even more amazing fit than before
- Removed binding on the shoulder straps, helping them slide more easily through the buckles
- Seat back is approx 1-1.5 inch taller - this was a popular request
- Waist belt webbing is approx 2 inches longer to accomodate larger babywearers
- The construction of the seat is now three vertical panels, versus three horizontal pieces which gives a super and more consistent fit with baby deeply seated in the seat pouch
Other quality details that aren't visible include interior reinforcement for the leg openings, and an extra structural layer under the center print panel. Lining is plush quilted microfiber. Binding and piping are custom made for the Scootababy™ Lots of other smaller details and improvements, too many to list. Scootababy™ didn't take any shortcuts. We're thrilled with the finished product! Seriously, the night I first saw this at the Babywearing Conference, I dreamed about it. The quality of this product is unparalleled!
The Scootababy™ is a hands-free side carrier that allows you to comfortably carry your child as you would naturally, only more easily! We are thrilled to be getting the Scootababy™ at SoBeBabies.

It combines the padded waist of a structured carrier with the brilliant spread out shoulder; no strap riding up your neck.
