FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is naturally hypoallergenic and soft, and further enhanced by an environmentally friendly Plasma treatment for extra softness.
How do I wash the merino wool leggings?
Machine wash on a cold cycle (30°C or 40°C) with a wool-specific detergent. Do not use fabric softener. Lay flat to dry, and avoid tumble drying.
Can these leggings be worn all year round?
Yes, merino wool is excellent for temperature regulation. It keeps children warm in cooler weather and comfortably cool in warmer weather, making them suitable for year-round wear.
What does the 'Plasma treatment' do?
The Plasma treatment is an environmentally friendly process that makes the merino wool fibers exceptionally soft against the skin while preserving the wool's natural beneficial properties.
What is the difference between the eyelet and rib pattern?
The leggings feature a combination of these patterns. The eyelet pattern typically involves small decorative holes, while the rib pattern uses raised vertical wales, adding both visual interest and stretch.
How do I know what size to get?
Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING. These leggings are designed for children, and the size '3' corresponds to a UK children's size 3.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy or rough
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Sometimes a few washes can further soften the wool. Check care label for specific instructions.
Leggings have shrunk after washing
This is likely due to washing at too high a temperature or tumble drying. Always follow the cold wash and lay-flat drying instructions. If shrinkage is minor, they may still be wearable.
Fabric appears to be pilling
Some pilling is normal with natural wool fibers, especially with initial wear. Use a fabric comb or de-piller gently to remove excess pills. Avoid excessive friction during washing.
Color fading
Wash inside out in cold water with a wool-safe detergent. Avoid direct sunlight when drying. Ensure the detergent used is color-safe for wool.
