Ergo Sport Review & Giveaway ~ SSG

The Ergo baby carrier is a soft structured carrier that can allow a parent to wear their baby from birth through toddler hood.  The brand has grown in the last few years and now there is an Ergo that will fit your lifestyle!

I was given the Ergo Sport to review. My friend has the organic Ergo and we compared the two side by side one day. I can honestly say I love my Ergo Sport way more than her organic – but that’s the wonderful thing about Ergo, you can pick whatever fits you best!

But I have to admit, when it comes to the cute factor, the organic line wins, hands down. I also love the little back packs you can get with the organic line. My friend uses her little pack to carry her cards in for a quick run into the store.  During walks in the sun, however, I can’t say enough good things for the design of the Ergo Sport.

Below you will find my review of the Ergo Sport. You can also read Beth’s Ergo review on her blog! She used her Ergo in beautiful Colorado!

This is a close up of the front of the Ergo, showing off my favorite feature of the Ergo Sport – the ventilation! The fabric is also thinner than the organic Ergo. It is so comfy and cool to wear on my walks. And this summer I am going to do an awful lot of walking, I don’t want baby to get super hot and sweaty.

It also has a cute little sleeper hood that can be snapped to the shoulder straps when in use or put inside a little pouch when not in use. I love that feature!

Overall I think this is much comfier than my Beco Butterfly for taking walks in the heat.  Lucy is only 5 months old and I haven’t mastered putting her on my back by myself yet. That is the only way the Beco wins – it is easier to put her on my back without assistance. But I can put Lucy on my front so quickly now and she falls asleep in it almost every single time I take a walk.

BUY IT!

You can purchase ERGO carriers from their online store or any of their retailers!

    Thanks so much for the review, I am due next month and have a 2 year old so have really been thinking about my options for transporting the two boys. I really love the look of the Ergo but I know you have to use the heart insert with a newborn and am worried he could overheat.
    Great review 🙂

    Oh, I would LOVE the Black Organic Ergo baby carrier! I haven’t been able to convince my husband to regularly carry the baby because my current carriers are too “feminine” for him. This would be a great choice for Daddy to carry either baby or toddler!!

    I love my Organic ERGO, but I would like to try the ERGO Sport for the same reasons you mentioned- lighter weight fabric and a ventilation system would be great in the Kansas summer heat.

    I love the blue Ergo Sport. My little ones tend to be sweaty little ones so anything that can help to keep them and me cooler in the summer is awesome in my book!

    I was going to say the organic river rock green but after reading the review at Happily Domestic, I think I’d go with the options carrier.

    I have thinking about getting the cranberry classic ergo, but I’m torn between the red sport one too. Of course if I won one and could pick any, I would consider the organic green one, so cute

    I love the ERGObaby Black Sport Carrier because it looks like it would be cooler here in the warm weather and it also looks like my husband would use it as well.

    The Organic Desert Bloom Baby Carrier is my favorite. Love the color of it and of course the design. What a great way to be close to the baby and still be able to move around.

    I love the ergo sport also. We call it the daddy ergo because it also seems to fit men (broader shoulders) and wider waists. Dont need the belt extender if you are still losing your baby weight for the sport but will for the organic model for larger waisted women 🙂
