New Jacquard Darjeeling from Hoppediz!

I am so excited!  Hoppediz just released a new jacquard wrap in two different colorways!

Introducing the new Hoppediz Jaquard Darjeeling!  It comes in both Berry and Pastel Green.  If these wraps are even half as beautiful and lovely as the Pune wraps, they will be amazing.

These stunning wraps are on their way to us right now.  We will be sure to post an update on them as soon as we get our hands on them.  Until then, we will just have to wonder what these new wraps will be like in real life!

Hopp Pune - Limited

When Hoppediz first released the Jacquard Pune wraps, people were drawn to their eye catching colors and fun print.  But once we got our hands on them, we immediately fell in love with their thin, super soft, floppy feel.


Different from all the other wraps they offer, Hoppediz really seemed to have created a star with this wrap.  So I was surprised to learn that Hoppediz is not planning to restock these limited edition wraps once they are gone!  Once hearing this, I immediately placed an order for Pune wraps, but I was only able to get the Pink and Purple colorways, Turquoise seems to already be sold out.  Hoppediz doesn't have the quantities listed on their website, so I don't know how long we will continue to be able to get these stunning wraps.


I am sad to think these wraps will really be discontinued.  I am hoping Hoppediz will decide to order more, but they only ever got one shipment of the Jacquard Chicago Plum, so there is no reason to believe this won't be it for the Pune wraps.  Maybe Hoppediz has another Jacquard wrap in the works that will be just as stunning, although these wraps are very different in feel from their Jacquard Chicago.  But if you've been waiting to buy one, don't wait too long.  For now these are still available, but like the Pune Turquoise, these won't last forever.

NEW! Hoppediz Jacquard Pune

They're here!  They're here!  And I am in LOVE!!!  The latest wrap by Hoppediz, the Jacquard Pune, is amazing.


First, I'll give you the basics.  The Jacquard Pune is available in 2 color ways, pink with orange and turquoise with lime.  The design on these wraps is a peacock feather and these wraps revers to the "wrong side" which allows for two looks in one wrap.


These wraps are unlike any other wrap from Hoppediz.  They are completely different in texture than the Jacquard Chicago.  The Jacquard Chicago is much stiffer and feels thicker, though there is no significant weight difference between the two (maybe an ounce or two).  The Jacquard Pune is extremely soft and floppy directly out of the box.  I would even describe it as having a silky texture, like a really high quality Egyptian cotton or even a silk blend.

These wraps are super light and airy which would make them perfect for summer.  They are very thin, probably as thin as the Hopp Light, but again, much floppier out of the box than a Hopp Light.

I am not a wrap expert by any means, but I can tell you that I love the feel of this wrap.  As soon as I touched it, I wanted to wrap my baby in it.  I think I would be petting this wrap all day if I were wearing it!  They are also far more stunning in person then what I could capture with the camera.  Definitely a wrap you will have to see and feel to believe!

Hop-Tye by Hoppediz

Yet another super cool product from Hoppediz!  The Hop-Tye are not new, but have not really been available to the US market.  After seeing some of their latest limited edition Hop-Tyes, I decided to order a few.  When they arrived, I was surprised at just how neat these carriers are!


First, these are made out of Hoppediz woven wraps, so they are a lot like a wrap conversion in comfort and feel.  They also have wide, wrap style shoulder straps that spread out and cup the shoulders like a wrap, and the waist belt has light padding in it.  I haven't gotten to try one yet, but they seem like they would be really comfortable.

There are also lots of fun features that make these mei tais unique.  First, they have adjustable draw strings at both the top and bottom of the body of the carrier.  This allows the wearer to make the carrier narrower and snugger with a little baby.  The base can be cinched together to allow a little baby to be legs out more comfortably.  They are designed to be used from birth on up.

These mei tais have a sleeping hood that attaches to pull strings on the shoulder straps.  These pull strings allow the wear to easily pull the head rest up when doing a back carry.  Anyone that has tried to put up a sleeping hood while their little one was on their back knows that this is not easy!  So this is a really neat design feature that I think is too cool!

All Hop-Tyes come with a matching carrying case and a detailed instructional booklet.  They are also all limited edition and Hoppediz only carries each design for a limited time.  I love the Miami with the flower on the hood and the Kalaoa is just stunning!  The Kalaoa has a panel of decorative fabric over the wrap material.


I am really looking forward to trying one out myself when my little one arrives, but I was really impressed with how nice they are once I saw them in person.  Let me know if you have been lucky enough to get your hands on one of these, I would love to hear what you think!

Summery of details:
  • Extra-wide wrap style shoulder straps and padded waist straps provide extra comfort
  • Headrest w/attachable pull string to easily pull up headrest when doing a back carry
  • Adjustable base allows you to cinch the body of the carrier together for younger babies
  • Designed to be used from birth on up
  • Can be used for front or back carries
  • Comes with a matching carrying case
  • Detailed instruction booklet included
  • 100% cotton, tested for harmful substances

Hoppediz on their way!!!

Yay! I finally heard back from Hoppediz and the order has been shipped! I should have it by sometime next week. So everyone should get their order during the first week of November.

This has been our first time doing a pre-order and ordering from Hoppediz, so it's been a learning experience. Over all, it will take about a month from the end date to the time people receive their order. I had hoped it would be quicker than that, but now I'll know.

Thanks everyone for your patience!
