FAQs
What makes merino wool suitable for babies?
Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, and excellent at regulating body temperature. It keeps babies warm in cool conditions and cool in warm conditions by wicking away moisture. It's also hypoallergenic and gentle on sensitive skin.
Can this sleepsuit be worn all year round?
Yes, the temperature-regulating properties of merino wool make it suitable for year-round wear. It adapts to the ambient temperature, providing comfort in both warmer and cooler seasons.
How do I wash the merino wool sleepsuit?
It's best to machine wash inside out on a wool program at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, and always lay flat to dry. Do not tumble dry.
What is the purpose of the American neckline?
The American neckline with shoulder overlaps is designed for convenience. In case of accidents outside the diaper, it allows the sleepsuit to be pulled down over the shoulders, which is often easier than pulling it over a baby's head.
Will the sleepsuit irritate my baby's skin?
No, DILLING's merino wool is known for its exceptional softness and comfort, making it ideal for sensitive baby skin and unlikely to cause irritation.
What does it mean that small holes may appear at the toe?
This refers to natural wear and tear that can occur over time with any garment, especially at points of friction like the toes during normal baby activity. It's a characteristic of natural fiber use and doesn't necessarily indicate a defect.
What sizes are available?
This particular sleepsuit is available in sizes for infants, including UK baby sizes like 6-18 months. Please refer to the product listing for specific size availability.
Troubleshooting
Sleepsuit seems too small after washing
Merino wool can sometimes shrink slightly if washed or dried at incorrect temperatures. Ensure you are using a cool wool wash cycle (max 30°C) and laying flat to dry. If significant shrinkage has occurred, it may no longer fit.
Baby feels too warm or too cold
While merino wool regulates temperature, external factors like room temperature and other clothing layers play a role. Adjust the room temperature or add/remove layers accordingly. Ensure the sleepsuit is the correct size for your baby.
Noticing small holes at the toe area
This is noted as natural wear due to normal use, especially with active babies. Consider wearing socks over the sleepsuit if this is a concern, or accept this characteristic of natural fiber wear.
