FAQs

Are these briefs suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the blend of organic merino wool and mulberry silk is known for its softness and is generally very gentle on sensitive skin. The fine fibers minimize itching.

How do merino wool and silk keep my child comfortable?

Merino wool is a natural temperature regulator, keeping the body warm in the cold and cool in the heat. Silk adds to the softness and breathability, helping to wick away moisture.

Can these briefs be worn all year round?

Yes, the temperature-regulating properties make them suitable for year-round wear. They provide warmth in winter and breathability in summer.

What is the 'pointelle' pattern?

Pointelle refers to a delicate, openwork pattern often created by using more stitches in some rows and fewer in others, resulting in a subtle, decorative texture.

How often should these briefs be washed?

Wash as needed, following the care instructions. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so they may not require washing after every single wear if not visibly soiled or odorous.

What is the difference between this and 100% merino wool?

The addition of mulberry silk enhances the softness, smoothness, and breathability of the fabric, while still retaining the excellent temperature-regulating qualities of merino wool.

Where are these briefs made?

The product information does not specify the manufacturing country, but DILLING is known for its production in Europe, often Denmark or Latvia, with a focus on sustainable practices.

Troubleshooting

Briefs feel itchy or rough

Ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions. Natural fibers can sometimes feel different before the first wash. If the issue persists, consider if the child has specific sensitivities to wool or silk.

Elastic waistband has lost elasticity

This is typically due to improper washing or drying (e.g., high heat). Always follow the recommended cold wash and air dry methods. Gentle use and proper care will prolong the life of the elastic.

Garment shrinking after washing

The briefs are designed to maintain their shape. Shrinkage usually occurs with excessive heat during washing or drying. Stick to cold water and air drying.
