Full details

These DILLING merino wool leggings are designed for children seeking extra warmth and comfort, featuring a soft, organic merino wool construction with a charming geometric pointelle and rib pattern. The key benefit is their versatility as a practical layering piece, keeping kids cozy without bulk.

FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool and treated with an eco-friendly plasma process to ensure extreme softness, making them ideal for sensitive skin.

Can these leggings be worn as standalone pants?

While they are soft and comfortable, they are designed primarily as a warming layer to be worn under other clothing. They are not intended as outerwear.

How do I wash merino wool leggings?

Machine wash on a wool program at a maximum of 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry away from heat and sunlight. Do not tumble dry.

What is the plasma treatment?

The plasma treatment is an environmentally friendly method used to make the merino wool fibers exceptionally soft against the skin, reducing any potential for itchiness.

Are these leggings warm enough for winter?

Yes, merino wool is excellent for insulation and warmth, making these leggings a great choice for keeping children warm during colder weather when worn as a layering piece.

What age group are these leggings for?

These leggings are designed for children, with this specific product listed as size 3-4 years, but available in a range of children's sizes.

Can boys and girls wear these leggings?

Yes, the leggings have a unisex design, suitable for both boys and girls, featuring a versatile grey color and geometric pattern.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. The plasma treatment should make them very soft, but if irritation persists, try wearing them with another thin layer underneath or consult care instructions.

Leggings have shrunk after washing

Check washing machine settings and ensure you followed the 30°C wool program with low spin. Avoid high temperatures or aggressive washing cycles. If shrinkage is significant, consult product care guidelines for potential remedies or consider professional wool care.

Loss of shape or elasticity

Avoid wringing or stretching the leggings aggressively. Always lay flat to dry. Excessive stretching during wear can also cause temporary loss of shape, which should recover after washing and proper drying.

Color fading

Wash inside out and use a detergent designed for colored wool. Avoid direct sunlight when drying, as UV rays can cause fading.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the softness and integrity of the merino wool:

  1. Washing: Machine wash on a wool program at a maximum of 30°C (86°F). Use a wool-specific detergent.
  2. Detergent: Avoid detergents containing enzymes or bleach, as these can damage the wool fibers.
  3. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly.
  4. Spinning: Spin at a low speed.
  5. Drying: Lay flat to dry on a towel, away from direct heat or sunlight. Do not tumble dry.
  6. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting (wool setting) while the garment is damp.
  7. Pilling: Some natural pilling may occur over time, which is normal for wool products and can often be managed with a fabric comb.
