Versatile Uses Comparison Table

I am so confident in the quality, strength, and versatility of the Trail Tether, I guarantee it for life.

Also we have field tested it in ridiculously harsh environments, such as when we used Trail Tethers to tow our Ford F-150 pickup truck.

If it can hold up to that, it can hold up to your baby or toddler tugging on it.

That's why if your little one is able to pull off a toy or pacifier and it hits the ground, we will give you double your money back.

You have my signature on it.

Not Your Average Paci Clip

Has your kid ever dropped a silicone soother on the floor?

It's no fun disinfecting it – scrubbing all the nasty dirt and hair off the smooth (but sticky) surface.

The Trail Tether is the world's only paci clip with a metal carabiner.

It locks your kid's stuffie, soother, or toy to any stroller, carrier, or hiking pack.

It's impossible to lose a soother attached to a Trail Tether.

In fact:

We guarantee a binky or toy attached to a Trail Tether never hits the ground – or we'll give you double your money back!

The paci holder of choice for Adventure Moms

Raising adventurous kids requires a piece of gear that can live on your pack.

You can leave it clipped on your child carrier and stroller too - no matter how much your toddler kicks on the way in and out.

The Long Strap Reaches Your Child With Ease

Most paci clips are very short and made for infant clothes. When you put them on a hiking pack, they don't reach and hang uselessly off the side.

The Trail Tether puts the soother right where your kid needs it. And if it falls off the side, it's long enough to reach back, grab, and give back.

Why the Trail Tether is a Must-Have for Adventure-Ready Parents

The Trail Tether is the ONLY paci clip on the market specially designed to latch around handles and straps.

Its carabiner design is patent pending – there’s nothing quite like it!

Your baby cannot pull the Trail Tether off!

We tested the strength of the Trail Tethers by using them to tow an F150 pickup truck.

In fact, if you do have the world’s strongest baby and they manage to rip off a toy...

We will give you double your money back. No questions asked (except maybe what you feed your child.)

Why we made the Trail Tether

We thought dropped pacifiers were a fact of life.

Our son constantly pulled his binky off our hiking pack. If we gave him a toy in his stroller, it would be overboard in minutes.

The problem was...typical binky clips had weak springs and just weren't designed for straps and handles on child carriers.

So we invented the Trail Tether.

It anchors to straps and handles. We've never lost or dropped a toy or binky since...and neither will you. We guarantee it!

We also found after having them on our adventures that it makes an awesome multi-purpose gear strap.

It stands on it's own against anything out there!

FAQ

What is the weight rating?

We put 100lb on the packaging, however it was engineered with ruggedness in mind

Just for kicks, we hooked up a couple of Trail Tethers to the bumper of our F-350 and used them to tow our 5,500lb F-150. This put 916lb of force on each Trail Tether.

Customer photo review of Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

Absolutely LOVE the trail tether!!! It has come in so handy and I have used it so much since purchasing it. Even to the point where I need to buy more because I find myself getting annoyed when I don’t have it for a situation that would have been the perfect use for one. This is a MUST BUY item & I’ve already convinced family members to buy them for Christmas gifts this year!

Customer photo review of Trail Tether 5 Pack

We used a few of my trail tethers on our recent trip to Disney, they worked so great on the plane, my toddlers kept dropping their water bottles, I was able to secure them to the try table for easy access, no more drops. We used another to hold our Mickey ears while riding the rides that they might fall off on, worked like a charm! I just purchased another 5 pack, 2 for friends that are expecting and I’ll be keeping the last few on hand as gifts for the future. I have gifted many of these in the past and everyone raves about them.

Customer photo review of Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

We love our trail tethers! First we were gifted one for christmas and came back to buy all the other colors :) We first started using these to keep our baby’s toys from falling on the ground. When he falls asleep in his car seat or stroller, we can toss the toy to the side! Additionally, we use this as a literal extension of the toy when we are out. Often times we hold him at the table at a restaurant. We clip the carabiner to his shirt and the toy stays close by! Extra bonus: baby likes the carabiners and has a new toy

Customer photo review of Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

We love our Trail Tether! We’ve been using it for a while now and honestly it’s a lifesaver. Whether we’re out hiking or just running errands, I don’t have to keep picking up toys or snacks every two minutes. It’s seriously one of the best kid gear add ons we’ve found. It’s one of those things you don’t realize you need until you have it.

Customer video review of Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

As I said in my video, really love this product, particularly as a way to carry my large water thermos. I'm really active in the summer (and fall and winter and spring), particularly playing tennis and going to the pool. This tether has been invaluable to me in just easily grabbing my water bottle and tennis bag / pool bag and heading where I need to go. I really love it. I can also see it already being really hand in the future as a keychain strap/helpful grocery bag carrier. Anyway. Great product, well done.

Customer photo review of Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

Just ordered a set of trail tethers about two weeks ago because I heard about them from a family member. Extremely pleased with their multi-purpose use in helping me to carry items when my two hands and backpack are not enough. Love the stylish design and durable quality. Highly recommend.

Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

When it comes to adventuring, my husband and I have always used caribeners. The trail tether stays put and now we have a pacci at every station for our son. Most importantly, we know a pacci is not going to hit the ground when we need it most.

Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

Although I have not had the experience, I can see how this could be used geared towards child devices. But, I saw the opportunity with my reusable water bottle. Carrying around, fastening while traveling I would use all sorts of cords or clips. With the few that I purchased I already have one on the water bottle, one on my cane, and one for the grocery bags. Connection configurations are a plenty and I will probably be finding more.

Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

We use them for attaching toys, caps and bottles everything for everything outside our house - car seat, stroller, backpack, changing backpack, carrier. Finally, I have two free hands and don’t have to pick up everything every few seconds 😅 I highly recommend them for everyone wanting to have an easier life with babies and toddlers, even outside of backpacking ☺️

Trail Tether: Hiking-Rated Pacifier Clip and Multi-Use Strap

One of my trail tethers broke on the first use unfortunately. The loop on the opposite end of the carabiner did not appear to be sewn properly. I hope the remaining of the 5 are not cheaply made as I love the idea of the product.

Store owner replied: Hi Laura, thank you for bringing this quality issue to our attention. A member of our customer success team is gathering more information and will be supplying you a replacement to honor our lifetime guarantee and quality standards. The Trail Tether is designed with a redundant dual bar tack stitch to hold the loop securely in place and support weights exceeding 100lbs. We are investigating this quality issue to ensure no further manufacturing defects. We take pride in our excellent track record of customer satisfaction and will quickly rectify this situation for you. Thank you for your patience, as this is the first instance of a stitching quality error that we have been made aware of. edit: after reviewing the supplied photo, it is apparent that a step in our manufacturing process was missed, and the bar tacks were not applied. This allowed the loop to slip out of the strap, as it was totally unsecured. We have sent a replacement unit out, and have already implemented extra quality steps in our manufacturing and also in our fulfilment in order to prevent this from occurring for future orders. Thank you for bringing this to our attention

Absolutely amazing! Have it on my baby backpack and stroller now, but will be able to use these on and with all of my gear!

Trail Tether 2 Pack

Works wonderfully! Used on a hike and i cant imagine doing it without this! Will definitely buy more from this company in the future
