FAQs
Why is the wool/silk blend good for babies?
The blend offers natural temperature regulation, keeping babies comfortable by adapting to their body temperature. It's also soft, breathable, and hypoallergenic, ideal for sensitive skin.
Can this bodysuit be worn year-round?
While designed for summer, the wool/silk blend's temperature-regulating properties make it suitable as a base layer in cooler seasons as well. It provides warmth without overheating.
How often should I wash the bodysuit?
Wash only when necessary. Wool and silk are naturally odor-resistant. When washing, use a gentle cycle with a wool/silk detergent at 30°C. Air dry.
Will the bodysuit shrink if I wash it?
If washed and dried according to the care instructions (30°C wool/silk cycle, no tumble dry), the bodysuit should not shrink. Avoid high heat and agitation.
What does the 'stays put at the stomach' feature mean?
It means the design of the bodysuit ensures it fits snugly and doesn't easily ride up or become untucked from your baby's diaper or trousers, providing consistent comfort and coverage.
Are there other sizes available for this blue bodysuit?
Yes, this blue bodysuit is available in a range of sizes for infants. Please refer to the product listing or size guide for other available options.
Is the material itchy?
Merino wool and silk are known for their softness and fineness, especially when blended. This combination is designed to be exceptionally comfortable and non-itchy against a baby's delicate skin.
Troubleshooting
Bodysuit feels stiff after washing.
This can happen if a harsh detergent was used. Ensure you are using a wool/silk specific or mild detergent and avoid fabric softeners. Gently re-wash with a suitable detergent or air out the garment.
Garment has lost its shape.
Gently reshape the bodysuit while it is damp after washing. Lay it flat to dry, avoiding stretching. Avoid wringing or twisting.
Baby seems too warm or too cool.
While the wool/silk blend is temperature-regulating, consider the overall layering. Ensure the baby is not overdressed or underdressed with other clothing. This bodysuit is best suited for moderate temperatures or as a base layer.
Poppers are difficult to fasten or unfasten.
Ensure the poppers are properly aligned before fastening. If they feel stiff, gently work them a few times. Ensure no fabric is caught in the popper mechanism.
