Ahh Inka Storch, I had one once and loooove the colourway.
They're thick, probably the thickest out there. Very supportive, a bear to break in but wrap like a dream once they are. I can wear my 4 year old comfortably in a Storch Leo.
I would say if you're a new wrapper it may be really hard to adjust to, but it'll go the extra mile as far as support and preschooler wearing is concerned.

Storchs are a great choice. Definately on par with girasols/didy/neobulle/hopps. You'll be able to carry DD for a while in it. Plus love the colour of this one.
Slightly thicker than some I've tried but definately not the thickest.

Yup, I would say Inka is thicker. Hopps/Storch are on par with one another, but I would say that Storch is much harder to break in than a Hopp - therefore in my mind must be thicker.
One of our members has an Inka and even after a beating she was still not broken in.

I bought my Leo 4.6 for $90ppd, sold my 4.2 for $80ppd last year.
eta: I wouldn't pay more than $90 including shipping for it.
