Ergonomic forward facing carrier recommendations

My 8mo LOVES to be forward facing in his carrier on our daily walks. Recently I’ve realised his legs hang straight down rather than the ‘M’ shape that I’ve now learnt is the best for their hips. I’ve done a bit of research but there is sooo many types out there and I don’t know what is best. I love the look of the ergo Omni and keep hearing that it’s a great one but it is on the expensive side. I don’t particularly mind saving up as we would use it a lot and I do want what’s best for his hips. However, I thought I’d just ask if anyone has any recommendations for slightly cheaper/ budget carriers that are great for forward facing? Preferably that we can use for when he is a toddler also.

At the moment we are just using one I saw on Amazon and bought, not knowing much about baby carriers when he was about a month old. I’ve included a picture of him in it so you can see what I mean.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
