FAQs
What makes merino wool and silk blend ideal for babies?
The blend offers exceptional softness, breathability, and natural thermoregulation. Merino wool helps maintain a comfortable body temperature, while silk adds a luxurious, gentle feel perfect for sensitive baby skin.
How often should I wash this bodysuit?
Wash as needed. Merino wool has natural antibacterial properties, so it can often be worn multiple times between washes if not visibly soiled or odorous. Follow care instructions closely when washing.
Can this bodysuit be worn in all seasons?
Yes, the thermoregulating properties of merino wool make it suitable for various temperatures. It can be a single layer in warmer weather or a base layer in colder conditions.
What size should I choose for my 15-month-old?
The 12-18 month size is specifically designed for this age range. Always refer to the size chart for precise measurements if available.
Is this bodysuit machine washable?
Yes, but only on a specific wool or delicates cycle at a maximum of 30°C, using a wool-specific detergent. Do not tumble dry.
Does the fit restrict movement?
No, the bodysuit is designed for a close but comfortable fit that allows for a full range of movement, supporting active play and exploration.
What is the benefit of the poppers?
The poppers are located at the crotch, making diaper changes quick and easy without needing to remove the entire bodysuit.
Troubleshooting
Bodysuit feels scratchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have washed it according to the care instructions. Merino wool should be soft; initial wash can sometimes enhance this.
Material shrinking after washing
You may have used water that was too hot or agitated the fabric too much. Always use a 30°C wool cycle and avoid harsh spin cycles. Lay flat to dry.
Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten
Ensure poppers are properly aligned before fastening. If they feel stiff, they may loosen slightly with use. Avoid forcing them.
