– BABYBJORN Classic - I love my Bjorn and my baby does too!
My daughter is 6 weeks old and about 8 lbs now. I've used my bjorn a few times now and LOVE IT. She loves it. I can go shopping and she sleeps the whole time. I like that I don't have to worry about a stroller or having to put her carseat on a shopping cart to go grocery shopping. The carrier is well made and secure. At first I worried that she'd fall out or a strap would snap or something. After using it a few times, I grew more secure with it. Now, I never leave the house without it. I can probably carry her for an hour before my back starts to ache. If you're going on long walks or hikes, this isn't the best carrier. But for simple grocery shopping, or short uses, it's perfect. My baby likes being in there. She's secure, close to me, and warm.

– BABYBJORN Classic - Simply the Best
Other manufacturers tried unsuccessfully to imitate or even "improve" this product. The simplest and best baby carrier on the market! You adjust it in the begining and putting it on or taking it off only entails 2 or 4 steps thereafter, all from the front, without any adjustments! –

– BABYBJORN Active - Great Gift Item
This was requested on a baby registry for a shower I was attending. From a gifting perspective this item arrived quickly and arrived in a very small box. I removed the item to see that it was in good condition and was very impressed with the design. This item allows you to carry your child in the most natural position possible while being extremely lightweight so that it does not bulk when carrying your child. –

– Kelty FC 3.0 - Great for hiking or shopping
We don't get out to hike as much as we would like to but this carrier is quite handy for shopping trips. Our 10 month old loves being up high where she can see things and people. She feels very secure in the carrier. I have no problem getting her in the carrier, secured and on my back. Her shifting her weight looking around takes some getting used to but it's not bad. The carrier itself is very comfortable to wear. I've worn it while we shopped for an hour or so. The wife actually toted our fussy baby around the house while she cleaned the other day. They were both happy and productive. Pack is big enough for the basics - a few diapers, wipes case, bottle, a few toys, snacks, the wife's wallet, a bottle of water and cell phone. We actually always have extra space. Built well, keeps baby happy and is a lot easier to deal with than a stroller. –

– These are all wrapped with care!
Certainly I am a bit prejudiced as I personally wrap all gifts from the DadGear warehouse, but I take care in each and every package so hopefully the receiver feels good about the gift! –

– Love my bag!
This is the best diaper bag! I can fit so much in it. It is the best bag for traveling as well. –

– Kelty FC 1.0 - seems very affordable for what you get
Nice backpack, very impressed. Plan on spending about 20min playing with it, adjusting it, seeing what your child looks like in it at different heights. And then make your first outing a short one without much technical terrain. It's a strange feeling having a child up on your back the way this carrier places them. It's ok, just different - takes getting used to. Our daughter seems to love it - it's like getting an adult's view of the world. She even fell asleep in it on our second walk with it so it must be fairly comfortable. No complaints from her anyway. Kickstand is really handy. On a flat surface it holds them up fine (but don't go anywhere - won't take a whole lot of moving before they fall over sideways, and that would be very bad as their head won't be protected much falling left or right). –

– BABYBJORN Synergy - Super product for hot areas
My little one is quite hot-natured and sweats easily, AND I live in Texas! This product worked quite well, compared to other products. I could keep him close (which he liked) without worrying about him sweating to death, because the fabric is quite breathable. It's easy to wash, holds up well, and after 8 months of routine use, it still looks great. –
Kerri T. - 01/28/2012
– So Roomy
We have this bag. It is so roomy. There are compartments for everything. I love the bottle compartments on either side. –

– BABYBJORN Classic - Baby Bjorn is a life saver!
My infant has severe reflux so putting her in the bjorn after meals to keep her propped up not only helps her but she really loves the view. I use this when I take her to the grocery store too. Thank you! –
Krissy - 01/22/2012
– Great bag
This bag is great for dads on the go with baby. There are several compartments which make for easy access to baby essentials. The design is cool and can be used for other purposes beyond baby.

– This deserves 10 stars!
This deserves 10 stars! I wish I knew about this 2 yrs ago. This thing can hold so much; 5 board books, coloring book, 16pc crayons, 2 chng of clothes, a few diapers, potty seat, basic first aid kit, 1 pr socks, snacks, my wallet, small camera, small video cam (flip size), sippy cup, bottled water, GameBoy thing, GameBoy thing, etchasketch. This thing is the greatest!!! –

– Thanks for making our life easier
I purchased the bag for my daughter as a gift for Christmas. She had a baby in April and had bought a bag for her husband so he could have his own personal bag. She loves it and will tell everyone about it and where it came from. Thanks for making our life easier. –

– Sturdy
I received the messenger bag for my newborn son. I have spent some time playing with the messenger bag, and was eager to let you guys know my inexpert review. I will start by saying that I have gone through an average of one knapsack a year simply through wear and tear. I do not think I am overly hard on them, but they simply wear out faster than greased lightning. A few years ago I got a 5.11 Tactical knapsack, the 12-Hour bag. It is tough as nails, and I have every confidence it will last me at least a decade. As of this evening it still looks as good as it did the day I slid it out of its plastic bag. Your messenger bag seems to be in the same league as the 5.11 bag I have. The nylon sidewalls feel heavy and sturdy, and although the zippers aren't YKK they feel heavy enough (at least the tabs are the same size as the ones on my Carhartt jacket) and don't feel as though they will break if I look at them wrong. I am very impressed with the tear-away-and-replace front flap. I was nervous at first about the velcro strip, but it is nearly invisible when looked at from any direction other than the back. It is some serious velcro, it feels almost like the automotive-grade stuff that NASCAR mechanics use. A few of my friends are working on their second or third kid, and one of them at least I think was using a cargo jacket as his diaper "bag". I will definitely let him know about you guys, since this second kid is a daughter and I think he's getting nervous about the status of his Man Card. Your heavy-duty and decidedly manly bags should help reaffirm his faith in his masculinity. –

– Satisfied Customer
Thank you for my awesome Dad Diaper Bag, first one EVER. Who would have thought that a diaper bag would help a Dad look cool, not me! But I am stoked to sport this thing. My wife would not allow me to carry my hunting pack as my bag, so this is the next best thing. DadGear Rules! Thank you again for this gift to us first time Dad's... –
Robby B. - 12/20/2011
– Awesome Bag!
My husband prefers well-made products so when I saw this bag I knew it would be the perfect bag for him. It has beautiful double stitching on the bag and the colors to choose from were nice earth-tones. I knew any color would work but I went with Steel. He loves it and was excited to have his own bag. This bag is well-made and is worth the price! –

– Loves his vest and backpack
My son loves his DadGear vest and backpack! It was the perfect birthday gift for him. He particularly likes the vest, as it allows quick, out-the-door trips with the new baby and the 2-year-old. He said his friends were very impressed when he whipped out supplies as needed, including wet wipes, waters, gloves and even a flashlight. I've told everyone I know about your website and your wonderful items. –
Debbie L. - 11/30/2011
– BABYBJORN Synergy - Love it!
I started with a Baby Bjorn Original that I got from a friend. The Synergy is so much better. The lumbar support alone makes this worth buying over the Original. I've carried my baby around for hours (he usually just falls asleep) without any back pain at all! Plus the mesh is much lighter weight and more breathable, keeps both of us a lot more comfortable. Highly recommend this!
–
Rod F. - 11/06/2011
– BABYBJORN Synergy - great purchase
It's the best purchase that we have made for our baby and for us. Now our hands are free to do other things at home, like cleaning, laundry and to go out for shopping. This BabyBjorn is extremly cormfortable. –

I just wanted you to know that I went to a baby shower last Saturday. The dad loved his Dadgear Rock and Roll messenger bag stuffed with Rockabye Baby CD's and Daddy-themed onesies. Thanks again for making such a great product. I will be ordering another bag soon. –

– BABYBJORN Synergy - We use this everyday
This is the best baby product we own. The mesh makes it breathable without chilling baby. We had the original baby carrier 6 years ago for our older daughter and while we loved it at the time it was not as good as this one. Our backs would tire more quickly with the original bjorn. Highly recommended. –

– Kelty FC 1.0 - Great Back Pack
I bought this so I could take my eleven-month-old grandson with me on my daily one-hour hike. I have been using it daily for a month and am very impressed with it. Some years back (30+) I had a back pack for my children that was serviceable but not nearly as comfortable or as safe as this Kelty product. The frame easily distributes the weight and the straps keep my grandson secure. The most important point, however, is that he loves it. Right after breakfast he goes to the backpack and tries to climb in. Even when he is fussy, riding in the backpack puts him in a good mood. He has not cried once as we walk up hills and through woods. He sits high and can see in all directions. He likes it better than the stroller his parents usually use. I have no qualms in recommending this product. I'd buy it again in a heartbeat. –

THANK YOU so much! My son LOVES the vest! Thank you for creating something great for dads. Back in my day, everything was only for the mother. –

– brilliant
I ordered 2 of your bags for 2 males who are having babies this Fall. We filled them with all kinds of baby items and showed them how to use and access everything, along with making them watch the video! They were amazed and basically had no idea how to do anything so this was a huge help for them since they are both first time Dad's. They really loved the bags especially the flap designs. They were the perfect gift at the perfect tme and they were very appreciative. I think your bags are fantastic especially the ability to hang them off a stroller....BRILLIANT! Access to the baby wipes and bottles from the outside...BRILLIANT yet again! –
Heather N. - 09/02/2011
– top notch
Wanted to express our gratitude for the new backpack. It arrived yesterday and are QUITE pleased with the new improvements you've made. The side elastic paockets are a GREAT addition! Also, sewing on the inner clips was a wonderfu idea, b/c that was something that broke quickly. Good thinking! Again, thank you, we couldn't be more pleased; this operation is top notch. –

I LOVE the backpack!!! My sons who are giving this to their cousin, liked it to! In fact, my older son had to show the wife… –
Joanne T. - 08/22/2011
– BABYBJORN Active - Lumbar support rocks!
A baby carrier is an essential item to have and this one is terrific! It's worth it to spend the extra money and get this model with the back support. I could carry my son for hours and it never hurt. Also, this model fits both me and my husband; I'm 5'6" and he's 6'3". The straps on this one are long enough for both of us but the ones on the regular baby bjorn are NOT; I called the company and they confirmed this. You'd have to buy separate straps to fit a taller person. My son loves being carried in the baby bjorn (he's 1 now) and when he was an infant it was the only thing that would get him to sleep sometimes! I definitely recommend this product! –
E. King - 08/11/2011
– Kelty FC 1.0 - Gravity Defying!
This product is AMAZING. It defies gravity...My 24 pound son rides in it and I can barely tell he's there (except for the hair pulling!) He absolutely loves it and will ride in it as long as we keep moving! The storage space is also great too, just enough room for what we need without lots of extra bulk. I am astonished at how light and comfortable it is- even with a baby in it! –
Laurie T. - 07/29/2011
– BABYBJORN Active - Must-have item fror your baby
This is my absolute favorite item I bought for my new baby. I would recommend it to all new parents. No exceptions . . . . My baby is now 10 months old and we have used the carrier probably over a hundred times. My husband and I have taken it everywhere from trips round the local grocery store through to 10 mile hikes in Yosemite. A baby carrier is by far the most convenient way to hold your baby, as it enables you to continue your daily activities while your baby is happy riding along with you. The baby is happy and so are you. I use my carrier on many occasions where some parents would probably use a stroller instead, the reason being that my son prefers to be carried around at 'adult' height and see everything that is going on than be stuck in a stroller down below. Given that even with a carrier a baby is quite heavy I recommend the Active version for the additional back support it provides over the Standard version. My only complaint about the Baby Bjorn, (which is not enough to drop my rating from five stars) is that it can be a bit tricky to adjust the straps until you get the hang of them and how to put the carrier on. My final piece of advice is to check that your baby is not getting over-heated in the carrier. If in doubt err on the side of removing clothing layers from the child before you put them in the carrier as they receive a lot of your own body heat while they are in the it. Also I have found that if your baby falls asleep while you are carrying them it helps to turn them to face you so that they are resting on your chest. Otherwise they tend to flop forwards. I hope you buy get as much use and enjoyment from this product as my family has. –
EM - 07/27/2011

All around, the Dad Gear backpack is a great bag and we highly recommend one for the dad in your life. He will thank you for it! –

I just wanted to write and say thank you one more time for my awesome diaper backpack! It was really easy to review because I genuinely love it so much. My wife has given up her "cuter" diaper bag and started carrying the backpack! –

– Kelty FC 3.0 - Perfect carrier
This is a perfect carrier for child and stuff. We love the sun shade. As others stated, the backpack compartment is a big hole, so more dividers would be nice, but that doesn't take away from the great item. We used it in NYC for 4 days and our little one never had a complaint. She did fall asleep in it, and this sometimes made her head look uncomfortable, but she didn't complain. –
C. Noland - 07/03/2011
– Kelty FC 1.0 - Love it!!
My 11 month old girl and I just back from our first camping trip to Moab. We couldn't have had such a great time without the Kelty carrier. She loves being up high and still very close to me. I loved having hands free and such a light comfortable pack on my back. I was hesitant to buy this being that other reviews mentioned their short wives complained about the shoulder strap always fell down and didn't sit comfy with them since they were so short. Well I'm not even 5ft and it has worked out great. By far one of the best baby purchases. –
Erika - 06/22/2011

We've already shown another couple the bag we bought-they are due to have their first baby a month after me! I'm hoping to get them a bag for their shower gift:) –

– I like his better
I have to say…I got my husband one of these bags for his birthday. I have a froo froo bag I carry myself. At least I used to carry a froo froo bag. I like his better. It's our main diaper bag now. –
Caryn B - 06/16/2011
– Excellent
This was given as a gift for an expectant daughter and son-in-law, so it hasn't been called into use as of yet. The initial perusal of the product seemed to be excellent. The only thing that would be an improvement would be some insulated bottle/can holders. It is a large bag with inside pockets and a changing pad. The access of the wipes from the front looks to be handy.
–
Chloe - 06/14/2011
– We get tons of compliments
The bag is totally awesome. We get tons of compliments. My husband is the primary caregiver of our kids. We have a 7 year old and just adopted a newborn. He researched bags and chose yours hands down. I love his bag more than my Storksak--I'm not kidding. It's so organized and easy to use. Nothing slides around--everything stays in its compartment. The one thing I would say is slightly annoying is the velcro on the back of the front flap that attches to the main part of the bag. –
Liz B - 06/11/2011
– No, I'll take my own
The husband who received the Rock and roll bag really liked it and is using it. His wife told me that she handed her already filled diaper bag when taking their son somewhere. He said "No, I'll take my own." –
Ann H. - 06/09/2011
– Kelty FC 3.0 - Amazing
Wow - thank goodness we listened to all the other parents comments! This purchase was our life saver for our recent trip over seas. Our 18 Month old (22lbs) boy could not have been happier in his Daddy Pack (as he called it). We went on hikes, walked for miles through cities and he just loved it back there. He even found it comfortable enough to take naps in!! Bravo Kelty on a great product!! –
YK - 05/16/2011
– Good buy
I thought it was pretty expensive...but it was worth it. Well made, tough. My husband thinks it looks great (I wanted him to have his own so I could have a stylish, girly one). He feels like Jack Bauer from 24! LOVE the easy access diaper wipes feature. It's very roomy. I don't regret the expense at all.
–
Kallie - 04/30/2011
– Nice, smaller bag
This bag doesn't have all of the bells and whistles that many of the larger bags have, but we wanted a smaller, simpler starter bag for shorter trips/outings, and this will certainly fit the bill. I really hated having an oversized bag with my older daughter for shorter trips. It was just huge and cumbersome and absolutely unnecessary. So, we knew we'd eventually want two bags, one for quick trips and another one from when we're doing major trips (like road trips, or flying out of town, etc.). This bag will be great for the day-to-day, shorter trips and errands. There's lots of pockets/storage, and we especially like the fact that it doesn't look like other typical diaper bags, and the bright color is awesome and fun. Once our twin daughters are bigger and we need to worry about packing more stuff (larger clothes, bottles, snacks, larger/more toys, etc.) we'll consider a bigger bag. However, for the first several months, this will work great. Part of why I chose this bag is that I'm interested in the larger backpack bag from this brand, so I figured getting the cheaper, smaller one might be a good way to see how we liked the durability and organization of this bag before investing in the more expensive bigger one. So far, we're please with this purchase. –

No one else at their baby shower thought of getting the new daddy a gift. He wears his vest all the time and it was the highlight of his day--it finally made him feel included in the excitement of expecting their first baby. –

I've made it my personal commitment to buy every new dad I know a diaper bag from your company so they don't ever have to do what I had to do while looking for a masculine diaper bag (and that is carry some fluorescent flowery girly bag)! –
Dexter B. - 03/10/2011
– WINNER, WINNER!
After scouring the net for the best backpack to use as a diaper bag, I ended up getting the DadGear Backpack Diaper Bag. Reviewers said that it was great for more than one child, had tons of storage, organization, etc. It has pockets on the sides for drinks, a compartment for wipes, one for diapers, and it's just a solid bag. Bought this to replace my small awkward diaper bag! –
J. King - 02/28/2011
– BABYBJORN Active - Worth the extra money
I bought the original version of the baby bjorn - and had terrible back pain, even for walks around the house. I was nervous spending the extra money for a second one - but went on the advice of a friend who was using the active carrier to take her baby on long walks, without back pain.
I am glad I took her advice. The support straps make all the difference. You have to keep it tight around you to get the benefit of the support, but if you tug them tight each time you put it back on - it really takes the pressure off. I walked three miles yesterday and my baby is 16 pounds - and I felt no pain when I got home. It was worth the money - even the second time around. –
Ariella V. - 02/24/2011
– Awesome bag for any Dad!
My husband loves this diaper bag and I love that he will actually carry it! Convenient pocket for wipes and tons of other space for all those little things! A++++ –
S. Hill - 02/19/2011
– Nice but heavy
My husband and I chose this diaper bag because it's not cutesy or girly, and he wouldn't feel silly carrying it. It's good quality and looks very easy to wipe clean (our baby's still 3 wks out). It's got nice space without being huge and a built-in, refillable wipes-holder. We did decide, though, that this would be his exclusive diaper bag, because even empty it's surprisingly heavy! My husband has no problem with the weight, and really likes it (it IS called "DadGear"), so I still recommend it, but filled up I think it could be a pain for new mothers to haul around. –

I am definitely getting a lot of compliments and I think I saved MANY new and soon to be dads from the many lame baby bags out there. Also making the women, especially my wife, jealous of the hidden little bottle compartment that prevents me from opening the bag –
Dominic C. - 01/17/2011
– Great bag for Dad
I really love this diaper bag which I initially bought to use as the only diaper bag for us when we go out. It's a great color (true to picture) and has some very nifty features, with the wipes case on the front being one of the handiest. It also has stroller clips which we use constantly and the 2 side pockets for bottles (we use them for sippy cups) are fantastic and have easy access from the exterior. The inside is super roomy and has plenty of pockets for organizing. I also like the zipped pocket on the front for quick and easy access and I didn't realize until recently but there are also two slim zippered pockets on the front panel on either side of the wipes. It's plenty big enough to fit everything we need for a full day out. I also have to say my husband likes carrying it since it looks just like a regular messenger bag. I do have to say though that I gave up carrying it around for little trips out during the day with my kid. It became too heavy and big for that use in addition to carrying a purse with it so I got a Skip Hop bag/purse to carry for myself when I'm alone and ditched the purse. We use this though on longer outings and when we're together. We've taken it on a very muddy trip and it wiped up really easily with a damp paper towel. I'd really recommend it for long outings and for your man to carry. –
Judy L. - 12/02/2010
– easy to carry
We enjoy the fact that the backpack is large, easy to carry, easy access. I also got my husband the jacket which he uses every day. –
Blythe B. - 11/11/2010
– Great bag
This bag was for my boyfriend because we decided we each wanted our own diaper bag. So far, we have been using only his, since we've been going everywhere together. Our son is now 10 days old, so the bag is still pretty new to us. However, it seems to be pretty great. Probably the best thing about it is that it really doesn't look like a diaper bag. It just looks like a typical messenger bag that a guy would take to work or something. It has plenty of room for the things we need, and I like the separate zippered compartments on each end for bottles, drinks, etc. I use them to bring a drink for myself. –
Alison - 10/29/2010
– still in great shape
We got it three and a half years ago for our first daughter. It is being used for baby number two now and is still in great shape (we are not nice to it). Thank you for coming up with such a great product. –

Theresa C. - 10/05/2010
– We like it, but its not perfect
This bag is plenty big and east to carry. However, the built in wipe container isn't sealed well enough for the wipes to stay wet in a low humidity environment. For the high price we paid for this bag I expected it to function as well as a $2 wipe box you can get at the grocery store. –
John C. - 09/25/2010
– very intuitive
My diaper bag is very girly and I think it's mean to make the husband carry that around-haha. Anyway, he absolutely LOVES it. It's very well made and has some great design work. I love that you can access the bottles from the inside and out via the side pockets. He finds the bag very intuitive. –

I purchased this bag for myself after my wife bought a different "girly" diaper bag. We both loved it so much that she decided to steal this one from me and it is now the only one that we use. The bag is very functional and roomy, and the accesible wipe holder is great! –

– my husband felt so special
It's well made and well thought out. My husband felt so special on Father's day. We can't wait for our baby to arrive to fill it up:) –

– absolutely rocks
Your product absolutely rocks. I tell every dad that is expecting to check it out. I will continue to promote for you as your product is that good. –

– love all the room
What I love most is all the room! I've got two kids under the age of three and I really need all the space it offers. Of course it wouldn't be a dad-bag w/o the great art designs, so that goes without saying. –

The vest is great and makes me feel like the James Bond of fathers when it comes to diaper changes. –

– Kelty FC 1.0 - Functional and Comfortable
First off, I love Kelty products--I had a nice Kelty backpack that I used to trek around Africa years ago. This child carrier is no different in terms of quality. It is adjustable, comfortable, and best of all, my 1 year old loves sitting in it. I never have liked strollers, and the baby bjorn was OK, but obviously useful only for smaller kids. This backpack is great and I anticipate using it for some time, at least until my child outgrows it. Definitely recommended. I don't know how much "better" the 2.0 or 3.0 versions are--the only real advantage I can see is that one of them comes with a sunshield, which would be nice to have. I know you can also buy the sunshield separately...or just put a hat on your kid. –

– total bag
Iam a single dad and really find this diaper bag to not look like the typical diaper bag on the outside but on the inside has all the space and pockets needed for everything. It is so stylish. I get lots of comments when I am out with my son. –

– sex neutral bag
This is a sex neutral bag for carrying baby's gear. It is very subtle and has lots of organizational features. –

– Awesome Bag
Awesome bag. I love it. It's cool, and it's far more functional than a useless designer bag that most women have and force upon their husbands. –

– What a great concept
My brother in law absolutely loves his backapck diaper bag. He is a very neat and organized person. He is a new dad and is currently "at home" with his 4 month old twin daughters. He was so excited to show me the compartments of the bag and is especially excited about the wipes compartment. The bag I picked out for him matches their double jogger stroller. What a great concept. I'll be ordering another one for another brother in law whose 3rd child was born 2 weeks ago. –

– One very satisfied customer
I came across multiple mentions of how great the DadGear customer service was. Your timely, informative, and rectifying response confirms those opinions, hands down! –

– Fabulous!
Fabulous! Outstanding quality and customer service. I ordered the messenger bag for a baby shower. Why should the mom get all the presents? –

– Cool Diaper Vest
Our newborn son would like to thank you. He's so enthusiastic that his dad has such a cool diaper vest! Even his family and friends like daddy's gadget! Thanks to all of you! –
Bert V. - 02/23/2010
– Really satisfied with the quality
I was looking for a good diaper bag and found you guys online. Really satisfied with the quality of the bag, and the service your company provided. Ordering was simple, and all of my friends (who are also dad's) think the bag is awesome. Now I can take my son outside in style. –
Matthew K. - 02/20/2010
– go-to baby gift
I two bags I've purchased already have been quite the hit - and recommended as future gifts. I wish I'd found your products sooner. The DadGear backpack is now my go-to baby gift. One that I know is helpful and adaptable as the baby grows. Thanks for such a great product. –

– met all his needs
My husband twittered about the bag the day he got it, and has been advocating it to all who will listen. He loves the fact that there was a diaper bag out there that said 'men are prents too' and that it met all his needs. –
Lisette D. - 01/31/2010
– he loves it
I purchased the fleece for my husband for Christmas and he loves it. He actually shows it off to his friends - those with and without children. –
Alison G. - 01/28/2010
– psyched
I bought one of your diaper bags as a Christmas gift for my husband. He was mortified at the thought of toting around the diaper bags we were seeing in stores. I actually read an article about DadGear awhile back and went online to see what you had. I loved everything and my husband is pretty psyched that he can look like a guy and still have a baby. –
Nina - 01/28/2010
– Love your backpack
We love your backpack! It is so much easier to manage everything! We are especially excited to use it on our trip to Disney World next month! We have recommended it to all of our friends and will be buying another soon for a shower gift! –
Jennifer M. - 01/27/2010
– Loved this cool bag!
This bag really helped my husband feel hip carrying a diaper bag. I had planned to get a more feminine diaper bag for me to carry, but I just ended up using this one, too, because I liked it so much. The only thing I don't like is that the bottom part of the clasp bangs against the bag and makes kind of an annoying sound if you don't fasten it. Overall, both my husband and I love it!

– Perfect Size
I really enjoy it. It's the perfect size, and the wipe holder is great. It works great and I show it off to everyone. I have many friends having babies, so I spread the word about your site… –

– Great for hauling stuff for multiples!
I think we went through 5 other diaper bags before finding this gem! With 18 month B/G twins, we still haul a lot of stuff even just to go out to eat. This bag is great for the storage capacity. You can fit plenty of diapers in the top pocket. The front pocket is great for things you need easy access to and the huge back section holds a ton of whatever you need to take - clothes, toys, extra food, etc. All in all, I can hold all the kids' stuff, PLUS my wallet, keys, lipgloss, etc. I also like the wipes dispenser on the front for easy access when I need to clean the kids' hands. I don't have to dig to the bottom to find them. The two, side bottle pockets are great for sippy cups of water, but I would not be as happy with them if I was still carrying around milk bottles that I wanted to stay cold, because they are not insulated. (They are also pretty narrow.) My only other con is that this is a LONG backpack and I am a short woman (5'2"). So it hits pretty far down on my rear end. But for the convenience of carrying EVERYTHING I want to and still having my hands free to deal with the twins, this diaper bag can not be beat.

– good bag
First time parents. We like it. Lots of compartments and works well. We like the wipe thing and that is why we bought it. Not disappointed at all and no complaints. –

– A diaper bag for Daddy
My husband asked me to get a diaper bag that was gender neutral and that he would not be embarrassed to carry in public. I searched long and far for a daddy diaper bag that would be big enough to carry everything we needed for our everyday outings -- extra clothes for those diaper blowouts, diapers/wipes, toys, sippy cup/snacks, my wallet/phone/keys. While I like the look of this bag (we have it in blue), I find it a bit narrow. There are a bunch of pockets on the inside of the bag and while that is a good thing, once you put anything into the pockets there isn't much room in the main compartment. The measurements are comparable to a regular messenger bag. We will keep using it though since it makes daddy happy! –
J.L. - 11/25/2009
– Such a great product
I enjoy my DadGear messenger bag. I try to show it to whomever I see with babies. I really like how the inside is so durable. My main reason for buying was definitely the wipes container and accessibilty. People are really impressed by it as well. Thank you for sucha great product. Continue the good work! –
Jaimie W. - 11/03/2009
– Good find!
Although it's a DadGear-branded bag, I ordered this for both me and my husband to share. I did a lot of research and comparison shopping before making this purchase. Here's a summary -- Pros: neutral color/design, built-in (and refillable) wipes case, separate pocket for changing pad, stroller straps, top handle, sits upright, 2 interior pockets (one small, one large), adjustable shoulder strap. Cons: synthetic material odor, stiff material, small changing mat. Overall, it's a good find!

– Good fit and quality
I loved the vest. It was a gift for a co-worker. I was impressed with the good fit and quality. I recommend your products to others. –
Holly - 10/15/2009
– Excellent product
As the user of the product (i.e. the Dad), I want to say how impressed I am with it. Its size, functionality, and appearance have all met or exceeded expectations. I have received numerous compliments on my backpack. Most people are completely "blown away" when they realize it is a diaper bag and not a regular backpack. Excellent product!!! –
Pat V. - 09/28/2009
– We love our backpack!
We love our DadGear backpack! Hnags at the right angle on the stoller (you don’t kick it when you walk), so many compartments for everything we could possibly need. The diaper pocket on top is so handy and I love the bottle pockets! They're so big, we can even fir the big bottles for adults! When I ordered the bag I somehow missed that it had the refillable wipes compartment. It was a great surprisewhen we got it! I commend DadGear on the ingenuity! GREAT PRODUCT! –
Heather S. - 08/29/2009
– Not too bulky
The bag is awesome and surprisingly light despit the design. The material it is made with is soft and light. Size-wise it's nice. Not too bulky. The only possible drawback is the wipes container doesn't seem to be 100% air tight. –
AA - 08/19/2009
– Good design, good quality
I bought a diaper jacket for an alternate purpose - to wear on plane rides, keep all my electronic gadgets handy and not accidentally leave them on a plane. The diaper pockets are the perfect size for a Kindle 2, including its case. The two zippered pockets work well for an iPod and a cell phone. The side pockets are handy for bottles of water or a map. I can even use the back pocket to carry a magazine or such, instead of a changing pad. This jacket is everything advertised, so I'm a satisfied customer. Good design, good quality. –
M. Leung - 07/17/2009
– Twin Mom approves
This bag has enough compartments of varying sizes that it accomodates everything that I need for my twosome. Right now I have it configured for 2 bottles on one side, juice or water bottle refills on the other side pocket, diapers and first aid items in the 2nd compartment, books and my wallet, etc in the first, toys in the biggest, and handy snacks in the smaller top part. The biggest compartment is big enough to put sand toys for both of them in and whatever else. Everything is conveniently placed! I used to have a bag work and a diaper bag for the kids, but now I just combine the two so I don't feel like a pack animal. Excellent! –
J. Gilmore - 07/02/2009
– Absolutely fantastic diaper bag!
After conducting extensive diaper bag research, I found a bag that either parent could carry (a definite plus, as some diaper bags are "girly"), with organization to spare, plenty of room, plus an ergonomic backpack design that makes it easy to manage the kids while out and about: the Dad Gear Backpack Diaper Bag. Can't say enough good things about this bag! First, the wipes are easily accessible without even opening the pack, via a flip-down compartment on the outside. Genius! Second, there is a pocket for diapers that's on the very top of the bag, so you never have to dig around for them. Next, there are two deep side pockets (one on each side), and I routinely fit four cans of premade formula on one side, and a bottle on the other side with a zip-lock bag of extra drop-in bottle liners. Then there are two mesh pockets on the outside of the bag, perfectly sized for a sippy cup or spare bottle (or even my own water bottle). There are two organizational pockets in the front, one of which I use to store diaper supplies (lotions/creams, changing pad, extra wipes, hand sanitizer and the like), and the other I use for crayons, books, and a zip-lock bag with a bib and baby spoon. Finally, there's a huge middle pocket, which I use to store a spare outfit for each child (right down to the socks, in case of catastrophe), snacks for the toddler, baby food for the baby, toys, coloring books, board books and a few other odds and ends that make life easier. This bag is comfortable to carry, as well. We live close to Disney, and have used it on our frequent, all-day park excursions. The straps and the design of the bag make it easy to manage, and I highly recommend it to parents with more than one child! Worth the money! Daddy will thank you. –
K. Gorgone - 05/08/2009
– Good for dads
We were looking for a bag that both mom and dad could carry without looking like a complete idiot, and this is about the only one out there. The bag is very well constructed, and so far I can't find anything wrong with it. In fact, when the bag came, the changing pad was not included. However - a testament to the customer service - when I complained about it, I was sent the missing part and had it within 2 days! I would definitely recommend this bag.
