FAQs
What is the primary benefit of merino wool in these long johns?
Merino wool provides excellent natural temperature regulation, keeping you warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather. It is also naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, and odor-resistant.
Are these long johns suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, they are versatile and can be worn as a base layer for outdoor activities or discreetly under everyday clothing for added warmth and comfort.
Do these long johns have a fly?
No, these specific DILLING long johns do not feature a fly opening.
How should I wash my merino wool long johns?
Machine wash on a wool or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Do not use fabric softener or bleach, and do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry.
Can I wear these long johns in warm weather?
Yes, merino wool's natural properties allow it to wick moisture and breathe, making it comfortable even in milder temperatures, helping to regulate body temperature.
What does 'close to the body fit' mean?
It means the garment is designed to fit snugly against your skin. This fit helps to maximize the insulating and moisture-wicking properties of the merino wool and prevents the garment from bunching up.
Troubleshooting
Long johns feel itchy
Ensure they are 100% merino wool and properly washed according to care instructions. New wool can sometimes feel slightly different before the first wash. Ensure the correct size is being worn.
Elastic waistband feels too tight
The elastic is designed for a snug fit. Try stretching it gently by hand. If it remains uncomfortable after a wear, ensure you have the correct size. Merino wool can stretch slightly over time.
Garment lost shape after washing
Always follow the specific washing and drying instructions. Laying flat to dry and reshaping while damp is crucial for maintaining the garment's form. Avoid high heat drying.
