Product Information
Full details
This DILLING Baby Merino Wool Fleece One-Piece is designed for infants and toddlers needing warm, comfortable outerwear. Its key benefit is providing excellent insulation and softness for chilly weather, suitable for car seats or naps. A potential consideration is that, as a natural wool material, its appearance may change over time with wear and washing, though this does not impact its insulating properties.

FAQs
Is this suit suitable for newborns?
This particular size is for 6-18 months. DILLING offers other sizes suitable for younger infants, please check the size guide.
Can this be worn as an outer layer in snow?
While very warm, this merino wool fleece suit is best as a mid-layer or for cooler, dry weather. For snowy or very wet conditions, a waterproof outer layer would be necessary.
How often should I wash the one-piece?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. Washing only when necessary (e.g., visible dirt or odor) will help prolong its life. Airing out the garment can often refresh it.
Why does the appearance change over time?
The change in appearance, such as slight fraying, is due to the natural properties of 100% unblended merino wool interacting with movement and washing. This is a sign of a natural product and does not compromise its warmth or comfort.
Are the fold-over feet and mittens detachable?
No, they are integrated into the suit but can be folded back to expose the hands and feet when not needed.
What is the difference between this and regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are finer and softer than traditional wool, making them less itchy and more comfortable against the skin. They also offer superior temperature regulation and moisture-wicking properties.
Troubleshooting
Suit appears to be pilling or fraying.
This is a natural characteristic of unblended merino wool due to friction from wear and washing. It does not affect the insulating properties of the wool. Gentle washing and air drying will help minimize further fraying.
Baby seems too warm or too cold.
Merino wool is breathable, but adjust layering underneath or the time spent outdoors based on the ambient temperature. This suit is best for cool to moderately cold conditions.
Zipper is difficult to close.
Ensure no fabric is caught in the zipper. Smooth out the material around the zipper area and try again. If the zipper is faulty, contact customer support.
