Lalabu The Dad Shirt - Long Sleeve | Hands-Free Baby Carrier for Dad with Kangaroo Pouch | Engineered for Bonding, Safety, & Comfort for Newborns Up to 15 Lbs. | CPSC Compliant

I bought this as a gift for my husband who swore he’d never babywear (and a gift for me to get some stuff done without putting down the Velcro baby!) and the quality of the shirt is amazing. There is a strap on the back that adds additional support. My son loves to be held close and I love the head support that it provides. I was hesitant for the steeper price tag BUT it was very worth it. The shirt fits my husband amazingly and I’m adding this to my list of gifts to give new dads!

Held my son perfectly. He took quite a few naps in this shirt while I did simple things around the house. The pouch extension is great, it holds their head from flopping back. I would recommend this shirt to any dad. After 6 months of use it held up great my next baby will get to use it too. Only draw back is it is a bit restrictive in the chest area but I think that is just art of the shirt trying to support the weight evenly.

This shirt is great. I was hesitant to spend $85 on what looks like a T-shirt with a pouch, but the shirt is actually very thick and well made. I've been using it for a month. It helps me keep our baby upright for a half hour after feedings while I'm working on the computer. It's very comfortable for me and the baby. Buy it a size larger than you normally wear. For newborns, roll up a towel and place it on the bottom of the pouch in order to prevent the baby from going to deep into the pouch. Make sure that the baby's head is out of the pouch so that they can breath well.

We love this shirt (both mom and dad use it despite the name). However, the sizing seems to run small. The medium fits more like a small and large fits more like a medium. The head hole was particularly small, and it would be a tight fit for anyone with broad shoulders.

We bought it but baby cried every time when he is put inside. When baby is too small and soft, we are not dare to use it. When baby grows stronger, the bag is already too small for him. So for us it’s kinda wasting money. If you are gonna purchase, you need to expect it can only be used in a very short period of timeBut the fabric’s quality looks good. It’s thick so my husband feels hot haha

The shirt itself is way too small. It tightly fit my 9lb month and a half baby, it also has 0 neck support. While holding the baby in pouch my husband felt that it was too constricting for the baby and him and he still had to 90% support the baby. A baby carrier has been a much better option and longer use. Giving one star because I can’t give it a zero. The item was extremely difficult to return. If you return the item you have to wait for a response from the seller to approve the return. Once the return gets approved and you RETURN the item, you will still not receive your refund. They will make it extremely difficult and had to contact customer service multiple times to receive some credit back. Item sucks and seller sucks.

I normally wear a Large, sometimes XL for a more loose fit. I'm 6'4" 220lbs. The XL is snug on me. Has plenty of length though!My newborn is currently 9lbs and some odd ounces and he loves chilling with dad in the pouch! He usually falls right asleep. While this shirt gives me the chance to be hands-free, I often feel I need to support him with at least one hand for his neck or just on his rump. I'm pretty sure the product recommends that anyway.Can be a little tricky at first figuring out how to safely get him in the pouch. I like when my wife's there to help spot or hold the pouch open, while I raise him above my head to get the feet in safely, but I can do it myself if needed.The material of the shirt has that sporty moisture wicking to it, which is good because it's hot wearing it in the summer. Probably more to do with a little furnace strapped to your chest, but also because there's extra material for the pouch and it's thicker than your average shirt. Overall though it is comfortable to the skin. Don't be surprised if it feels like you're being squeezed while wearing it. It does have some stretch to it. That's probably the inner stitchings or elastic that helps keep your baby snug.People are able to tell that this is a dad shirt even if the baby's not inside with you. But it does have a couple of magnetic buttons to help keep the pouch closed when not in use.Overall the price is hefty for a shirt you'll wear temporarily. I have not tried the cheaper knock offs I can vouch for this shirt being well worth the investment for when you're out and about and you want to get the baby out of the car seat or your baby needs to be held and you still want to get things done around the house.

The material is so thick and does not breathe at all. My husband is a 2X and that's what we ordered but it was almost too tight. I know it's supposed to be tight to hold the baby but the material made it ride up. Also getting baby in and out was pretty hard.
