This is an amazing idea for guys who don't like the idea of having to fasten carriers. My husband gets home from work, slips on the shirt, and baby goes in the pouch. It is so easy and comfortable, I've tried it on myself, even though it's too big for me I love the softness and structure of it. Our little guy is terrible to suddenly throw his head back, and there is an extra piece of fabric with an adjustable drawstring that folds up from the inside to help support the back of his neck.

Magnetic

This is so neat. I got it for my son. Him and his wife are expecting there first baby after a long wait . BUT it has magnets on the top near the man's chest. My son has a pacemaker he can't go near magnets. 😩. It is a very nice shirt I'll save it for a son in law I'm sure I'll have more coming. It is nice. I just don't recall reading that it has magnets on it to stay closed for the baby.

A must for the hospital

My husband wasn't sure about this at first. But when I put this in my hospital bag and bought it too the birth he wore it. I think it helped him bond with the baby. He felt the baby was more protected. So while I got a chance to shower and eat and get myself together after birth the baby was in there. I even got some sleep. Actually so did he with our newborn on his chest. All the doctors and nurses thought this was a great idea too. I wish it was bigger. Our baby is 2 months and is about to outgrow it. The baby and him do share a nice bond, and I think it is because of this shirt.

I really can't like this shirt enough

I really can't like this shirt enough. It is completely worth buying. I have owned it for 5 weeks and have worn it everyday. I liked it so much I bought 2 more. If you want to know more then look up "Lalabu: what you can do in a lalabu" on YouTube. I also have another video about it on my channel from our time in the hospital.

I am one happy pappy.

Magnificent shirt for Dad. Well made.

This Lalabu Dad shirt was amazingly well made. The large size fits snug, so make sure your man can handle a "tighter" fit. I was very thrilled with the reinforced pockets and it not only has comfortable magnetic closures at the top corners of the pocket, but an elastic draw string for snugging up the top opening of the pocket. Kudos to the makers for thinking of those Dad's out there that want to be close to their newborns.

AWESOME!! Great idea and super-soft shirt.

While it's clearly stated it isn't hands-free baby wearing, this shirt offers tons in the way of being able to connect, calm, and bond with your little dude/dudette. The fabric is super soft and comfortable and could definitely be worn on it's own...but it's intended use is baby-wearing.

The adjustable head support and string to tighten it is perfect if your little one is a little taller but definitely keep one hand free to support baby's head. My littlest guy is right on the 15 lb. recommended weight limit so his time is coming up but he sure enjoyed it. There was no time getting adjusted -- the first time I put him inside he was laughing and cooing like a maniac.

It wasn't until I was taking it off did I notice the magnets that connected the outside of the pouch to the shirt, so the pouch doesn't just stay loose.

Overall it's 10/10 and hopefully lalabu rolls out some more product for infants a little more than 15 lb. because if it's anything like this Dad Shirt, it'll be awesome

Love this!

Daddy likes to wear baby girl in this when mommy isn't home..mostly when he is playing games lol

Tonight I stole it and this thing is amazing! My 2 week old fell asleep in it right away. My husband is tall and skinny 150 lbs and 6'1 and I'm 5'3 postpartum weight at 150 something and it works for both of us. She isnt big enough yet for my Lillebaby carrier so this newborn shirt is perfect!

Good design and quality, but a bit pricey
by Khao DAlessandro (3 out of 5 stars)

New Mom here and was looking for something super simple, and lightweight for my husband so he could help out carrying the baby, weather it be at home while he was playing video games or while we where at the grocery store. This is by far the most easy and convenient baby carrier on the market. No prep or "how to" lessons needed. Just buy, open, wear, read safety instructions and put baby in! I also like that the material of the shirt feels durable and actually looks good when worn without a baby in it too. The downside is that the max weight is 15 IB, and that there where not that many color choices other than grey and black.

as I saw this on the Today Show and thought it was perfect for his 1 month old baby

Problem is, my son's first baby, he is not what anyone would consider a person of size, but does wear a normal XL Tshirt; but this XL and this did NOT fit him at all. He couldn't even get it on....... he is supposed to be returning, so hoping I receive a credit.

Sorry, as I saw this on the Today Show and thought it was perfect for his 1 month old baby. He was very disappointed as well... and little time to fool with having to return an item. Please assure your sizes are correct! Thank you.

VERY well made and engineered.

Out of the box it is really great. Majority material is very comfortable and seems breathable. Pouch is constructed with great attention to detail. Open enough to allow easy kiddo load in and snug enough to prevent unwanted wobble or sliding while seated in the pocket.

Only odd sensation is what I dubb the back bra. There's this elastic strap for supporting the pocket (I assume) that's a bit odd the first time you put it on. Doesn't take long to forget about it.

I bought an $8 kangaroo dad shirt. Comparing them is not even a contest. This is what someone might say Apple would design if they went after the dad pouch shirt market. Love it. We'll see about longevity down the road.

Cheers.
