FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for newborns?
Yes, these leggings are designed for infants and come in sizes starting from 0-3 months, making them suitable for newborns when the appropriate size is chosen.
Can I machine wash these leggings?
Yes, you can machine wash them on a wool program at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent.
How do I prevent Merino wool from shrinking?
Always wash on a cool wool cycle (30°C) with a wool detergent and never tumble dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat.
What makes Merino wool special for babies?
Merino wool is exceptionally soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating. It keeps babies warm in the cold and cool in the heat, while also being naturally hypoallergenic and odor-resistant.
How do the elasticated cuffs work?
The cuffs are designed to be gentle yet effective, holding the leggings in place around the ankles without constricting movement or leaving marks on the skin.
Can these leggings be worn year-round?
Yes, due to Merino wool's excellent temperature-regulating properties, these leggings are comfortable in various seasons. They can be layered for warmth in winter or worn alone in milder weather.
Do these leggings come in other colors?
This guide specifically covers the blue variant. Please refer to the DILLING product range for availability of other colors or styles.
Troubleshooting
Leggings seem to have shrunk after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool program at 30°C and a wool-specific detergent. Avoid tumble drying and high heat when drying. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the garment while damp.
Baby feels too warm or too cold.
Merino wool is temperature-regulating, but consider the overall layering. If too warm, remove other layers. If too cold, add a lighter layer underneath or over the leggings.
Elastic cuffs feel too tight.
While designed to stay in place, ensure the size is correct. If the cuffs feel restrictive, the leggings might be a size too small. Check the size guide.
Wool develops pills (bobbles).
Pilling is a natural characteristic of fine wool fibers. You can gently remove pills with a fabric comb or sweater stone. Proper washing and less friction can minimize pilling.
