FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for very young babies?
While made from soft merino wool, these leggings are sized for children aged 3-4. For younger infants, DILLING may offer specific baby ranges.
How often should I wash these leggings?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You may find you can wear them multiple times between washes, especially if used for sleeping. Wash when visibly soiled or when odor becomes noticeable.
Can I use regular detergent?
It is best to use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicates. Regular detergents can contain enzymes or harsh chemicals that may damage the delicate merino wool fibers.
Will my child get too hot wearing these in summer?
Merino wool is highly breathable and thermoregulating. It helps keep the body at a stable temperature, so your child should not overheat in typical summer conditions. They are lighter than many other wool types.
What does 'organic' merino wool mean?
Organic means the wool comes from sheep raised under organic farming standards, which prohibit the use of harmful pesticides and chemicals in grazing lands and animal care. It ensures a purer, more sustainable product.
Can these leggings be worn as a base layer for skiing?
Yes, their thermoregulating and moisture-wicking properties make them an excellent base layer for skiing or other cold-weather activities, keeping your child warm and dry.
What is the difference between this and other DILLING leggings?
This specific product is made from 100% organic merino wool. DILLING also offers leggings in other materials like cotton or blends, which will have different thermal and comfort properties.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy
Ensure you are using 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its softness. Wash the leggings according to care instructions before the first wear, as this can soften the fibers further.
Reduced elasticity in waistband
Avoid high heat washing and tumble drying, which can degrade elastic fibers. Follow the recommended 30°C wash and flat dry methods strictly.
Pilling or snagging
Merino wool can be prone to pilling with friction. Avoid washing with abrasive items like denim. Handle carefully to prevent snags on rough surfaces. Minor pilling can often be gently removed with a fabric shaver.
Shrinkage after washing
Ensure the washing temperature does not exceed 30°C and always air dry flat. Do not use a tumble dryer.

Care Instructions:

- Washing: Machine wash on a wool or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F). Use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicates. Avoid fabric softeners.
