Wishful Thinking
Yesterday I was talking to a friend whose DS is close to outgrowing his current seat and he’ll need to move into his big sister’s Cowmooflage Marathon soon. Big sister is going to need a new harnessed seat (she’s only 4) but mom was hoping she could get something bigger than the MA but still in that same Cowmoo pattern. I had to tell her that at the moment, such a seat does not exist (except in photoshop ~ thanks Shelle!). However, it got me thinking…
If you could have ANY seat in ANY pattern – what would it be? Personally, my boys and I love blue so I’d like a Summer Breeze (plaid cotton Roundabout cover), Hampton (striped Decathlon cover) or maybe a Midnight Sky (blue/black Recaro cover) for the Regent. Yes, I realize the Regent has been discontinued but since this is all about wishful thinking, I wish they would change their mind and keep it in production.
Really, I’d be happy with any truly boyish (not just gender neutral) cover on any good seat. I’ve lamented in the past about how CR manufacturers seem to ignore boys (and parents of boys) when they chose cover options for any particular seat. Yes, I know retailers make the final decisions on which cover options they want to carry but if manufacturers don’t offer cool boy covers then retailers can’t even chose whether or not they want to carry them. But I digress…
So, what would you wish for if you could have any existing cover pattern on your CR of choice?

Gray or black with not-too-flashy trucks, tractors, or something with wheels in green and blue on a Nautilus. Seriously, I’d buy one yesterday for my almost 3 yr old. Maybe even a second to save for my baby. (And don’t tell, but I’d take anything boyish in a black or grey with some color- even accents. Lizards, airplanes, etc. Try me.)
Monterey in Cowmoo or any animal print.
Camo or cowmoo on the frontier in the future would be awesome. I’d like to see some fish or cars on something too. If the nauti could ever come in any color besides gray and brown for boys, that’d be great!
I love the Clek prints. My kids and I wish we could get them on a Radian-like harnessed seat.
Graco has the best patterns IMO…just apparently not for the Nauti. I want a True Fit or Radian in Deco, Broadstreet or Isabella. DS would have a purple seat if it didn’t have flowers or butterflies on it since it’s our college’s primary color.
I love animal prints… cow, leopard, zebra, etc. I love them.
Graco’s Lizards in Line, Britax’s Jonah, Barnyard or AllStar on the Nauti
