Ergobaby Omni 360 All-Position Baby Carrier for Newborn to Toddler with Lumbar Support (7-45 Pounds), Pure Black, 1 Count (Pack of 1)

For a hot climate is the cool mesh really that much better? I got the Omni before the cool mesh came out and now feel regret :(

How do I know if the Ergobaby carrier I am buying is real and not a counterfeit?

Advice on color choice? I cant decide. Worried grey color may stain. Black shows lint and spit up? Black hotter in summertime? Help me choose.

Hi there - does this model need the infant insert for babies under 12lbs? Reading up on it - and doesnt seem so....
