Wraps & Slings Widths and Lengths

See chart below for general sizing for wraps and slings. Keep in mind that some brands may vary slightly.

Each chart section begins with the standard width for that carrier (which does not tend to vary with size) and lengths follow.

Tapered wraps measure the length of one rail. Tapered ring slings typically measure from the rings to the middle of the taper.

ABOUT POUCH SLINGS: There is a TYPO in the chart above. Until I get around to fixing it...the "total circumference" for the pouch slings listed is WRONG. It is actually the length of the pouch sling laid flat (so HALF of the circumference) at the widest point of the curve. So the TOTAL circumference would be doubled.
