Light Weight (under 230 GSM)
Typical feel and use:
- Light and airy feel
- Very breathable for warm weather
- Easy to tighten and adjust
- Soft and flexible
- Great for newborns and younger babies
- Quick to learn for beginners
Best for: Hot weather, smaller babies, and quick everyday carries.
Keep in mind
Lightweight doesn’t mean low in support.
Some lower GSM wraps can still perform beautifully due to:
- Strong, dense weaves that maintain grip and structure
- Supportive fibres like linen or hemp that add strength without thickness
- Textured weaves that prevent slipping despite less fabric
A wrap with lower GSM will still feel supportive and secure.
