Sizing and the Tail

The tail on the sling makes it adjustable. It makes it possible for a sling to fit a wider range of people. Unlike pouch slings that have many different sizes, my slings have 2 basic sizes, Small and Large. Most of my In-stock slings are size large unless otherwise noted as a small. I have found that the large fits best those women who wear shirt sizes L-XXL, where a small sling will fit XS-M. Size also depends on the length of tail that you want. For example if you are a size Medium and want a longer tail, then a Large sling might be what you're looking for.
A longer tail is not necessary, but it does come in handy! It can be used to cover up during breastfeeding or to cover your child's head in windy or cold conditions outside. And remember if you don't want the tail to show (like at church or some place you would want to have a more put together appearance), you can always tuck it into the pouch beside your baby.
