Protip: a 5T sized t-shirt will fit over most SSCs and Mei Tais for an easy, no-sew slipcover! Similarly, a 5T or so sized hoodie can be used to add warmth (and a hood!) to a carrier in winter, or a rain coat to protect baby and carrier in the rain. For costumes and some other applications, a size Large dog outfit/costume will fit over most structured carriers as well.
