The Onbuhimo (also know as an onbu) is a baby carrier most commonly used for back carries, it has no waist band - just shoulder straps, this means these carriers are not overly suited to very long carries unless you are already used to carrying heavy backpacks or similar.
Lenny lamb Onbuhimos feature thick cushioned shoulder straps and a chest strap as well as a hood for head support should little one fall asleep or need shelter from the sun or a rain shower as well as a straw string to adjust the panel width.
Onbuhimos can only be used when babies are sitting unassisted, not usually before 6 months old.
Lenny lamb Onbuhimos come in two sizes, standard and toddler.
Standard size is suitable from 6-18 months old or when little ones are wearing European sized clothing 74-92cm. You can view our standard sized Onbuhimos
Toddler size is suitable from 12-36 months or when little ones are wearing European sized clothing 80-98cms. You can view our toddler sized Onbuhimos
