Piggyback Rider » After debuting its innovative kid carrier at the 2011 Summer Outdoor Retailer, the Piggyback Rider came to the winter show with an expanded line. At the top of the new line is the deluxe child carrier featuring a 15-liter pack big enough to carry snacks, cell phones and a few extra clothes. The kids — secured with a safety harness — stand on a bar behind Mom or Dad.

Price » Available this spring for $130.
