When it comes to baby wearing, not every parent is comfortable slinging it.
For those who prefer a frame backpack style, the heavy-duty styling of some carriers can be overkill — if the middle ground suits you best, consider kokopax.
The company’s new City Carrier ($100) and Eco-Classic Carrier ($180, left in the pax “peace” print) are super lightweight and come loaded with lots of cool features — five-point harness, powder-coated frame, adjustable and padded shoulder straps and a sturdy kick stand for easy loading.
Weighing in at just 3 lbs, both carriers are designed for on-the-go parents and their kids. They’re even small enough to fit in the overhead storage compartment of an airplane.

It’s a girl for Rescue Me‘s Andrea Roth and her fiancé, producer Todd Biermann.
The actress gave birth to daughter Ava Reese Biermann on Monday, March 29 at 9:40 a.m. at Pennsylvania Hospital, her rep tells PEOPLE exclusively.
Ava, who was delivered with the assistance of midwives and a doula, weighed 6 lbs., 14 oz. and measured 20.5 inches.
“Andrea has never been happier,” says her rep.
“She waited until she met the perfect man to start her family and it couldn’t have turned out better as she and her fiancé are the proud parents of a gorgeous baby girl.”
Roth, 42, plays Denis Leary‘s wife on the FX drama. As filming winds down for the finale, they continue to remain mum in regards to whether or not Roth will be pregnant on the show.

Coming from a brood of boys, Greg Kinnear can rough and tumble with the best of them.
However, when life with wife Helen Labdon dished out daughters, the actor found himself trading it all in for tea parties.
“My grandfather had two boys, my uncle had three boys, my dad had me and my two brothers, each of my brothers have had two boys,” he told David Letterman on The Late Show last week.
“Then something happened with the chromosomal experiment and suddenly I’ve got three girls!”
As a result, Kinnear has been forced to learn a whole new language when it comes to sibling squabbles among Lily Katherine, 6 ½, Audrey Mae, 3 ½, and Kate, 6 months, lovingly referred to as ‘Katie Crunch Bomb’ by her sisters.
“All the tools I have are things like, ‘If your brother punches you, you punch him back harder,’” he jokes. “I have no skills [to say], ‘That’s a lovely gown honey, look at you!’”
And despite being “so ill-prepared” for his group of girls, Kinnear — and his wallet! – are catching on.
“Let me tell you something, you figure it out real quick. They say, ‘Well, you’ll pay for it later and as far as I can tell, I’m paying for it out the arse right now!” he laughs. “It’s expensive and there’s no stimulus package for dads with daughters.”
