Mei Tai in the price range of 490 NIS and up are made of a woven wrap fabric which is especially woven for the baby carriers and shows excellent results in load distribution and level of support.
There are also some more expensive models in this category, made of hand-woven wrap fabric and/or organic raw materials.
