Before you had kids, you spent your weekends exploring new trails, hiking up mountains, making fire from twigs. You spent your labor browsing the aisles of REI and gave birth at the rock climbing wall. Okay, maybe not all of those are true. But if even one is true, you’re probably very familiar with Kelty, which has been making products that help you pursue your passion for the outdoors since 1952. And just because you’ve had a baby, Kelty doesn’t believe you should have to slow down.
The Kelty FC 3.0 is a top of the line, trail-based carrier created with patented technology. With the Kelty FC 3.0 you can share all your favorite activities with your new little adventure-seeker. The Kelty FC 3.0 draws on Kelty’s 50 years of backpacking heritage to bring you safety, comfort and easy of use in one frame baby carrier.
The Kelty FC 3.0 has a unique five-point adjustable child harness, which is the ultimate in child safety. The auto-deploy kickstand with patented No-Pinch hinges help you load and unload the carrier easily and with no tears (of your own or your baby’s). Your child won’t outgrow the Kelty FC 3.0 for many years, due to the adjustable seat and custom fit leg straps. When your little one is old enough to talk, you won’t hear a word of complaint, because the Kelty FC 3.0 has a fully padded frame and seat made of breathable fabric, to keep your child comfortable all day long.
You won’t be complaining either, since the ventilated back panel on the Kelty FC 3.0 wicks moisture away from your body, keeping you cool even on a vigorous hike in warm weather. The padded shoulder straps adjust to comfortably fit all shapes and sizes, and the padded hip belt contours to your unique shape, giving you the comfort and support you need and deserve.
The Kelty FC 3.0 is made from 600D poly/brushed nylon, available in Blueberry, Cherry and Black. A two-layer padded and contoured waist belt, a padded back panel, and curved, padded shoulder straps keep you comfortable while wearing a child up to 50 pounds. The Kelty FC 3.0 includes a sliding back-panel torso-length adjustment, sternum strap, load lifter straps and a patented Scherer Cinch waist belt system, making it adjustable for wearers of different sizes.
The Kelty FC 3.0 has been designed with kids in mind. The Kelty FC 3.0 includes toy loops where you can attach favorite toys and teethers. And because Kelty knows that where kids are, messes happen, you can machine was the removable cockpit pad of your Kelty FC 3.0.
For your convenience, the Kelty FC 3.0 includes a waist belt storage pocket, under-seat storage pocket, GPS/cell phone pocket and a zip-off diaper bag with shoulder straps and changing pad included. Plenty of space for all the necessities means you can spend the entire day out with your child and your Kelty FC 3.0, knowing that everything you need is within reach.
The Kelty FC 3.0 weighs 7 pounds and 14 ounces and measures 19" by 15" by 30". All Kelty FC 3.0’s are coated with a highly water resistant treatment, which should sufficiently protect your carrier. If, however, you are planning a major hike during monsoon season, or you just want to be sure to keep your little one completely dry, you can simply use the patented Sun/Rain Hood, which is included with every Kelty FC 3.0.
