waterproof & breathable
€379.00
See the sizing chart
A baby changes a lot. It doesn't change how much you love being outside.
The Explorer is a proper hiking jacket for you - with room for your baby.
- Built for real weather: 15,000 mm hydrostatic head, fully taped seams, windproof and breathable
- Pit zips under the arms: open them on the climb so neither of you arrives soaked in sweat
- Waterproof hood for your baby: your child's head stays covered, not just yours
- Front and back carry: pre-shaped sleeves and a waist-shaped cut with extra length over your bottom keep you free to move
- Maternity insert included: one jacket for pregnancy, the carrying years and long afterwards
Why a carrier beats a framed backpack on the trail
- For a baby, a framed backpack isn't an option anyway - your child has to be able to sit steadily first. And later on, it isn't automatically the better choice either:
- Your toddler sits close to you. The weight carries more easily, and their wriggling doesn't set you swaying
- Children fall asleep on the way. A carrier holds them; a framed backpack lets them slump sideways
- A carrier weighs next to nothing. A framed backpack is extra weight on top of your child
Take the inserts out and you've got your outdoor jacket for years to come.
"It stands comparison with the best hiking jackets out there."
Sizing tip: The Explorer runs generous - many customers size down from their usual.

Je ne la quitte plus !
Je porte ma veste Explorer depuis des années déjà et je ne suis pas prête de m'en séparer. Elle n'a rien à envier aux meilleures vestes de randonnée sur le marché: imperméable, coupe-vent, ultra-respirante notamment grâce aux zips sous les bras, je l'adore!
J'apprécie également la coupe qui me donne une bonne liberté de mouvement et me couvre les fesses en, surtout quand il pleut ou qu"il y a du vent. Je la porte actuellement enceinte de 30 semaines avec l'insert de grossesse, et je ne la quitte plus!

Auch für Kleinkinder top
Ich habe die Jacke schon mal bewertet und bin mittlerweile noch zufrieder damit! Mein Kind verschwindet auch mit 1,5 J gerne unter der Regenjacke, meist auf dem Rücken. Und in der kompletten Kombi mit Jacke Explorer, Regenrock Explorer und den passenden Toddler-Regenschuhen (für die Füße, die mittlerweile rausschauen) spazieren wir gemütlich durch den Regen. Und ohne Kind bekomme ich für die Jacke ständig Komplimente, weil sie ohne Einsatz eine tolle Figur macht, auch dank der Farbe.
Das ist genau das, was ich mir für den Preis gewünscht habe. Sehr empfehlenswert als langfristige Investition!

Qualität & Komfort
Die Jacke wird in ihrer Qualität und Durchdachtheit absolut dem Preis gerecht! Mit den beiden Einsätzen (und danach ohne Einsatz) plane ich die Jacke für die nächsten Jahre zu nutzen. Aktuell passt sie in der 20. SSW gerade noch so ohne Einsatz.
Die Lüftungen unter den Armen sind jetzt bei Sommerregen Gold wert. Ansonsten ist auch der Schnitt sehr schön tailliert und lässt trotzdem Platz für die Brust.
Wichtiger Hinweis zur Größe: ich trage normalerweise M, bei der Explorer jedoch eindeutig S.
Absolut empfehlenswert!

Your baby is snuggled up close to your jacket—touching it, chewing on it, and sucking on the fabric. That's exactly why a babywearing jacket should be free from harmful substances.
mamalila babywearing jackets are tested according to OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 Class 1 or comparable standards. This means they are also tested for saliva resistance.
For the water-repellent finish, we exclusively use an eco-friendly, FC-free treatment with BIONIC-FINISH® ECO that is biodegradable and does not accumulate in the body or the environment.

Freedom with Your Baby Since 2005
Since creating the very first babywearing jacket in 2005, mamalila has had one clear mission: to help parents shape life with their baby in the way that feels right for them.
Because life doesn't stop when you have children!
With thoughtfully designed products, we give families the freedom to enjoy everyday life on their own terms and create unforgettable memories together.
QUALITY & COMFORT
The quality and attention to detail make this jacket absolutely worth the price! With the two inserts (and later without an insert), I plan on wearing it for many years to come. [...] The underarm vents are worth their weight in gold on warm, rainy days. The cut is beautifully tailored while still leaving plenty of room around the bust.
Every Mom Needs This Jacket
I’ve been wearing my Explorer jacket for years now, and I’m nowhere near ready to part with it. It easily holds its own against some of the best hiking jackets on the market: waterproof, windproof, and highly breathable, especially thanks to the underarm ventilation zips. I absolutely love it!
I also really appreciate the cut, which gives me plenty of freedom of movement and covers my butt – especially nice when it’s rainy or windy. I’m currently 30 weeks pregnant and wearing it with the pregnancy insert, and I practically live in it!
GREAT WITH TODDLERS TOO
I reviewed this jacket before, and I’m still just as happy with it! My child is now 1.5 years old and still loves getting under the rain jacket, usually on my back. [...] And even without my child, I’m constantly getting compliments on the jacket because it gives me such a flattering shape – and I love the color too. That’s exactly what I was hoping for at this price point. I highly recommend it as a long-term investment!
Every mamalila babywearing jacket comes with a matching insert.
It simply zips into the jacket to create extra room—either for your growing baby bump or for your baby in a carrier.
Thanks to the clever 4-in-1 design, you can wear your softshell jacket:
- during pregnancy,
- while front carrying your baby,
- while back carrying your baby,
- and later as a regular jacket.
All inserts are individually adjustable and designed to grow with your family.
Yes, in principle you can. If you'd like to carry twins or two children at the same time, you'll need a second babywearing insert for your Explorer babywearing jacket. This allows the jacket to accommodate both children comfortably.
If you'd like to purchase a second insert or have any questions, feel free to contact us at info@mamalila.de. We'd be happy to help you find the right solution.
Yes. All mamalila babywearing jackets are designed for both front and back carrying. Simply zip the babywearing insert into the front or the back of the jacket, depending on how you're carrying your child.
Your babywearing jacket will accompany you from your baby's first days through the toddler years—whatever carrying position you prefer.
Yes. Every mamalila babywearing jacket for moms can also be worn during pregnancy.
Depending on the model, the jacket adapts to your growing bump in different ways. Some include a pregnancy insert, others feature expandable side zippers, while some are designed with enough room from the start.
After your baby is born, you won't need a new jacket. Simply continue wearing the same one with the babywearing insert—first for front carrying, then for back carrying.
And once your child no longer wants to be carried, you can keep wearing your mamalila jacket as a premium everyday jacket.
That's what makes the sustainable 4-in-1 concept so special: one jacket that supports you from pregnancy through babywearing and for many years afterward.
You can use a mamalila babywearing jacket for as long as you carry your child.
Depending on the model, the babywearing insert is suitable from birth up to around two years of age.
How long you'll actually use it depends mainly on your child's size and your family's carrying routine. Once your child prefers to walk most of the time, simply remove the insert and continue wearing your jacket as a regular outdoor jacket. That's what makes it such a sustainable, long-lasting companion.
Under a mamalila Explorer babywearing jacket, your baby has plenty of room to breathe — as long as the jacket is adjusted correctly.
- Your baby's face should never be covered by fabric. You can easily adjust the height of the baby insert to ensure this.
- The baby hood can also be adjusted to protect against wind and rain without covering your baby's face.
- Your baby's airways must remain clear at all times. Our baby inserts can be adjusted individually, allowing the Explorer babywearing jacket to fit snugly while leaving plenty of space around your baby's head and face.
A good rule of thumb: You should always be able to see your baby's face and easily kiss the top of their head. Be sure to check regularly that your baby's nose and mouth remain uncovered—especially with newborns.
Our softshell babywearing jacket does not replace a baby carrier — it simply protects both of you from wind, rain, and cold.
Your baby should always be carried ergonomically in a suitable baby carrier or wrap.
Make sure your baby is positioned high enough, sits in the recommended M-shaped position with knees higher than the hips, and can breathe freely at all times.
The babywearing insert of the Explorer jacket then adjusts to both of you and provides reliable protection in all kinds of weather.
