Why We Like The Sapling

We like to carry our sprouting seeds in Thule's Sapling kid carrier. Ventilation is key with this bag on both the back panels for us and the seat for the saplings, so we're all cool as we tackle the trail. Its 22-liter gear compartment has plenty of space for both food, diapers, and the rest, and is easily accessible while the bag's equipped.

Thule Sapling backpack

This is now my go to baby shower gift. Great for the active couple. They will be able to hike with there baby for 4 years with this backpack. Then they can use it with their next child. The gift that keeps on giving! Great quality product!

Perfect for a Hike

I bought this a few months ago and absolutely love it! My son is comfortable enough in it to fall asleep while I hike, it has SO MANY pockets, and it isn't too heavy.

the best baby carrier for hiking

Have tried a couple of carriers from different brands. Thule sapling is the best one! Our baby likes it. I'm super happy with its design, even though it's not the finalist of IF design.

Favorite baby gear

We go to amusement parks, long rucks, hikes, family walks etc, and we use this each time. There is so much storage, we packed snacks, diapers, wipes, bottles of water, our wallets, phones, and still had some room. My daughter has used this for the last two years, and she gets excited to get in it. My husband and I take turns on rides at amusement parks and we easily switch the carrier without issue. It is well balanced, and when adjusted correctly, it should not cause discomfort.

Great for baby

My baby seems extremely comfortable in the carrier. She is 8 months old and we’ve been using it for the past month. I believe the way the carrier is designed is optimal for babies comfort compared to other carriers. She is in a very comfortable seating position compared to other carriers where babies are in a more upright position. The carrier also has a very sturdy build. It looks and feels very high quality. However I do unfortunately have a complaint. I am rather petite. I mesure about 5’5 and weight 110 lbs. I feel like I can’t quite get the carrier to fit me perfectly. I would need the hip straps to tighten just a little more and the sliding back portion to reach a little lower. I feel like the carrier was mostly designed for men and also fits girls of a more regular build….which is very annoying. A lot of women are my size and we should be able to carry our babies comfortably and enjoy a hike together!

So comfortable for baby and parent

Purchased this for my second child after debating for some time, so glad that we did. The difference between this and other carriers for both baby (use it for almost 2 year old & 8 month old) and wearer comfort is impressive, as with all our Thule products the engineering and thought that goes into them is unmatched.

Love it

Just hiked 30km over a few days on recent trip to Jasper with my giant 21 lbs 6 months old and this backpack is awesome. Comfy for both me and bubs. Love that it has a wide seat and washable parts. Baby was cozy even in cold and rain. Additional rain cover is great for both rain and cold alpine winds.
