FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for everyday wear?
Yes, the breathable and thermoregulating properties of merino wool make them excellent for everyday wear, both for active play and sleep.
Is merino wool itchy for babies?
No, the DILLING merino wool used is exceptionally fine and soft, specifically chosen to be non-itchy, even for sensitive baby skin.
How do I wash my baby's merino wool leggings?
Wash on a gentle wool cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach. Lay flat to dry.
Can these leggings be worn in summer?
Yes, merino wool is breathable and thermoregulating, meaning it can help keep your baby cool in warmer temperatures by wicking away moisture.
What does 'no-itch' mean for merino wool?
'No-itch' refers to the softness of the merino wool fibers, which are much finer than traditional wool and do not cause the prickly sensation often associated with wool garments.
What is the benefit of the ribbed surface?
The ribbed surface provides extra flexibility and a better fit, allowing the fabric to stretch and adapt to the baby's movements without feeling restrictive.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel tight or shrink after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a cold or 30°C wool cycle. Avoid high heat in washing and drying. Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
Baby seems uncomfortable or irritated.
While merino wool is naturally soft, ensure the garment is clean and there are no seams irritating the skin. Check the fit to ensure it's not too constrictive.
Wool loses its shape over time.
Always lay the leggings flat to dry rather than hanging them, which can cause stretching. Proper washing and drying techniques are crucial for maintaining shape.
