Each of these material options have unique characteristics that help you meet the demands of parenting. Let's explore all of the interesting facts.
100% Cotton Collection 
Cotton might be one of the materials you are most familiar with. Soft cotton is a versatile fabric especially suited to printing all of the fun variety prints that we are known for. The material is easy to clean and machine washable, making it great to use for the messy jobs of parenthood.
Essential details about our cotton fabric: it's soft, breathable, and all-natural.
We offer the most variety of carrier styles in all cotton material, including our Explore, Original (Formerly Free-To-Grow), Kid (Formerly Toddler), and Mini Toy carriers.

Linen Collection 
A collection that quickly rose in popularity very quickly. And we understand why. Our Linen fabric is made from a unique 52% linen and 48% cotton blend woven into a classic herringbone pattern. While linen is a summer staple, the sophisticated 2-tone weave of Tula Linen makes it a fashionable choice year-round.
What do we love about Linen: It's naturally breathable and temperature-regulating, linen has been a warm weather favorite globally for thousands of years. Linen comes from the flax plant, a low water, nearly zero waste crop. The beautiful, classic fabric that flax produces is also biodegradable.
The addition of cotton to our Tula Linen collection adds a soft, right-out-of-the-box hand feel and makes it less prone to the wrinkles people associate with it.
Tula is not short on weather-versatile options, but the linen collection has been popular for those seeking a less sporty aesthetic made from natural fibers. The collection is inspired by light, airy colors found in nature and is available in our Explore, Original (Formerly Free-To-Grow), Kid (Formerly Toddler), and Mini Toy carriers.
Mesh Collection 
Mesh, made of 100% polyester fabric, is a popular option because of the breathability and added airflow it can provide. Mesh, previously used on just the center panel, is not used over the entire carrier, hood, and interior of our arm straps of every Tula Mesh carrier. The mesh on all Tula carriers is comfortable on the skin and perfect for you and your baby.
Tula Mesh Carriers are made in our Explore, Original (Formerly Free-To-Grow) and Kid Carriers (Formerly Toddler).
