Roamer

Roamer, a versatile Walker/Bike, serves children from ages 9 months to 5 years. Beginning as a walker for around 9-month-olds, it transforms into a three-wheel ride-on for children once they have mastered the walking phase, then becoming a balance bike from the age of 3. The four hinges on Roamer's legs enable these changes, thus creating a cost-effective option for families with multiple children. Crafted from the Wool and PLA composite, Keravos, Roamer is both recyclable and eventually compostable once at the end of its life. This sustainable material, paired with its multi-functionality renders Roamer an affordable and eco-friendly choice for parents.
