FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for newborns?
Yes, the size 0-3 months is suitable for newborns. The soft merino wool is ideal for their sensitive skin.
Can I wash these leggings in a regular washing machine?
Yes, but only on a specific wool program or a very cool setting (maximum 30-40°C), using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid harsh cycles and high spin speeds.
How often should I wash merino wool leggings?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and breathable, so they don't need washing after every wear. Wash them when they appear soiled or have an odor. Airing them out can often refresh the garment.
Will my baby overheat in these leggings?
No, merino wool's natural temperature-regulating properties help keep babies comfortable by wicking away moisture and allowing the skin to breathe. They help maintain a stable body temperature.
What makes merino wool different from regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer than those of regular wool, making them softer, less itchy, and more flexible. They also offer superior breathability and moisture-wicking capabilities.
Can I use fabric softener with these leggings?
No, fabric softener should not be used with merino wool as it can coat and damage the natural fibers, reducing their breathability and elasticity.
What sizes are available for these leggings?
These leggings are available in various sizes, including 0-3 months, 0-6 months, 6-9 months, 9-12 months, 6-18 months, 18-24 months, and size 2 (which corresponds to 2 years).
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy
Ensure you are using 100% organic merino wool. Wash the leggings according to care instructions before the first wear, as this can soften the fibers. If the itchiness persists, it might be an individual sensitivity.
Leggings have lost shape after washing
Check that the washing machine was set to a cool wool program and that the garments were not spun at a high speed. Always lay flat to dry and gently reshape while damp. Avoid tumble drying at all costs.
Stain removal on merino wool
Treat stains immediately by gently dabbing with cold water. For tougher stains, use a wool-safe stain remover and follow its instructions carefully, or consult a professional cleaner experienced with wool.
Garment appears to have shrunk
This usually occurs due to washing at too high a temperature or tumble drying. Merino wool can sometimes be stretched back to its original shape carefully while damp. Future washes should strictly adhere to the cool wash and lay-flat drying instructions.
