Luckily, a legion of all-terrain models is hitting the market, with practical features and great suspension suitable for the baby about town. —Lyndsay McGregor

2: San Diego-based Bumbleride debuts the Indie 4 this June. Weighing in at 22 lbs., the new model combines the off-road ability of a multi-terrain stroller with the maneuverability of an urban ride. For those who love escaping the city’s bustle on the weekends, the Indie 4 offers a large easy-access basket for storing baby’s bits and bobs, while the space-saving standing fold makes it an ideal choice for the brunch bunch. Made of 50 percent recycled PET (That’s 14 plastic bottles.) and 50 percent bamboo charcoal fiber, the fabric wicks away moisture, regulates temperature and inhibits bacterial growth. Available in seven eye-catching colors like aquamarine and lotus blue, the Indie 4 will retail for $599. www.bumbleride.com
