Ten Pram Bags That Really Change Your Life

What to Look For in a Pram Bag

A pram bag is perfect for carrying the essentials such as nappies, muslins and clothes. They come with plenty of pockets and room, so that new parents can quickly locate what they require without having to dig around.

Generally, prams and strollers are allowed to be carried aboard as baggage in the cabin. But it's a good idea to inquire with your airline about their specific rules and regulations prior to departure.

Stylish design

Elegant pram bags are designed to sit on top of your stroller, making it easier to grab the items you require at a moment's notice. They come with convenient storage pockets for nappies or wipes, as well as milk bottles, and an open pocket for your important belongings. There are also styles that come with pram hooks, so they can be attached to your pram frame.

Straps that are thick

The straps are thick and sturdy in a pram bag provide support for heavy loads, reducing strain on the shoulder. A good strap should be padded and adjustable to provide optimal comfort. The straps should be large enough to distribute the weight across both shoulders. This is essential to reduce the possibility of injury or discomfort when you travel for long periods of time.

Straps for changing bags for babies can be made of recycled nylon or leather. The latter is made of waste fishing nets that would otherwise end up in our oceans. The material is strong and is a great choice for babies and the environment.

You can choose between straps that have binding or without. Straps that have binding tend to be broader and allow the use of high-density thin foam. The thinner straps are better suitable for light loads or shorter trips. Straps with no binding however, are more comfortable with more weight and longer trips.

A good strap begins with a piece of webbing that matches width of the hardware. This usually consists of two rectangle rings or in the case of straps that will be removable, a pair D-rings, and swivel clip. Then, you feed the webbing through the tabs for the strap slider and stitch it to hold it in the right place. You can make the straps more comfy by adding padding. To do this, stitch a layer of soft cotton jersey or fleece over the webbing. This will stop the strap from touching the bare skin and it looks better than the itchy airmesh that is common on fashion packs.

Easy to clean

It's easy to not think about emptying the baskets inside your pram, especially when you're always on the move. Pick a pram with a bag lined with fabric that is easy to clean. It's also a good idea to select a model that is made from baby safe, non-toxic materials and is tested to ensure compliance with International Standards REACH & CSPC (free of Lead Content, Formaldehyde Content, Phthalates and Arylamines).

To get the best prams results you should disassemble parts of fabric that can be removed, such as the canopy or seat of your pram bag prior to washing. Start with a vigorous shake to remove dirt and debris that has accumulated, then soak in warm water and baby-safe laundry detergent for 30 minutes. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry away from direct sunlight, which may fade colours. Rub stubborn stains using an old toothbrush. You can also wash the bag by machine according to the instructions of the manufacturer, and then air-dry it.
