“After using old frame carriers my mom found in thrift stores, I was inspired to create a carrier that was as comfortable and as basic as the old carriers, but a lot more fashionable,” said kokopax founder Sarah Spoor. “Our 100% cotton canvas fabric is custom designed and printed in Los Angeles. The fabrics are beautiful, funky and fun and even hip dads will find designs made especially for them. It’s a throwback to less complicated times when products weren’t over engineered. These carriers are safe, simple, functional and extremely lightweight. They help you get things done and go places, together. The best part is that they can be used every day, everywhere.”
kokopax products will arrive at retail in October, 2008. The kokopax collection will be available at specialty juvenile products stores nationwide, through selected online retailers and at www.kokopax.com.
