How
do I know what size I need?
-
Baby should ride as high and tight as
possible to maximize the wearer's comfort. For
this reason, it is imperative to get a good fit.
Baby's bottom should be in the sling zone (see
illustration at right).
- ZoloWear slings are sized for adults. They
are not women’s sizes, so an average sized woman
may wear a small sling. Please use the chart
and/or measure to determine your size. Do not
use your preferred clothing size as a guide when
choosing your sling, as clothing sizes vary
among brands.
- There is 3” difference between sling sizes.
- For more precise fitting slings and pouches,
measure across the front of your body from the
tip of your shoulder to the middle of your
opposite mid-hip (in the sling zone.) Watch this
video to see
how to measure.
- Use these tables to find your ZoloWear size:

I’m 5’4” and 115 lbs, and my husband
is 6’-2" tall and 220 lbs. Can we share the same
sling?
- Like an article of clothing, you can share
the same sling, but it won’t fit both of you
well. You will need to purchase a sling that is
large enough for your husband (a size large),
which will make it really large on you (a size
small). It doesn’t work to compromise on a
medium.
- If your sling is too small, the pocket will
get caught in the rings.
- If your sling is too big, the tail will hang
down to your knees and the pocket will swing
into your leg when you have it filled with
stuff.
- For an ideal fit, the pocket should be
centered on the tail, which should end around
the top of your leg.
