I'm 6'3" and the Ergobaby I got doesn't fit right. Strap doesn't sit properly, baby sits too low. Any recommendations for carriers that actually work for taller guys? Tried the Lillebaby too and had the same issue.
The K2 carrier is built for tall dads. Wider base, longer straps, and the baby sits higher up naturally. Changed everything for me.
Tula makes a tall size that's specifically designed for bigger frames. My brother is 6'4" and swears by it. A bit pricey but he uses it daily.
I'm 6'2" and had the same problem with Ergobaby. Switched to the LilleBaby and it's been night and day. The straps sit way higher and the carrier itself feels more adjustable for longer torsos. Might be worth checking out.
Have you tried adjusting the shoulder straps all the way up? I know that sounds basic but I didn't realize how high they actually go until month 3.

Honestly just went back to a hand carrier for the first year until my son got heavier and could handle a back carry. Ergobaby just doesn't work for us tall guys in the front carry position.
