NEW!
BLUELUX STALLION

"A super-deluxe, extra-padded backpack.... Safe for kids... and comfortable for both the rider and the wearer.... Regardless of the length of hike and the weight of the child, the Stallion has always supported our backs. In fact, it often seems that our children are pounds lighter than they actually are. It only took one encounter with another child carrier to realize how well-designed the Stallion is.... The Stallion pack is definitely for active hiking families.

    Rated by Outside Magazine the best child carrier for the tall/big man

"[Outdoors writers Tom Kirkendall and Vicky Spring] lugged their 2-year-old son all over [California].  The carrier of their choice: the Stallion by Tough Traveler... a choice common among knowledgeable users, many who say no pack comes close to touching it." - Andy Dappen, Parent's Pick in Family Camping
