FAQs
Is this onesie suitable for newborns?
Yes, this onesie is available in infant sizes, including those suitable for newborns, offering gentle warmth and comfort from day one.
How does merino wool keep my baby warm?
Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that traps air, creating an insulating layer. The fibers also wick moisture away from the skin, preventing heat loss associated with dampness.
Can this onesie be worn year-round?
Yes, due to its thermoregulating properties, merino wool is effective in both warm and cool conditions. It helps maintain a comfortable temperature regardless of the season.
What does 'no feet' mean for this onesie?
The 'no feet' designation means the onesie covers the legs but does not have enclosed foot coverings. This allows for more freedom of movement and is less restrictive.
How do I prevent shrinkage when washing?
Always wash merino wool on a cold or wool-specific cycle (max 30°C) with a wool detergent and avoid high heat in the dryer. Lay flat to dry instead of using a tumble dryer.
Is organic merino wool better than regular merino wool?
Organic merino wool is produced without the use of harmful pesticides or chemicals, making it more environmentally friendly and often considered even softer and safer for sensitive baby skin.
Can I use a regular detergent?
It is strongly recommended to use a detergent specifically designed for wool. Regular detergents can contain enzymes that break down wool fibers, leading to damage and shrinkage.
Troubleshooting
Merino wool feels scratchy after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a low temperature wash cycle. Avoid fabric softeners, which can damage wool fibers. Gentle handling during washing and drying is key.
Garment has lost its shape.
Merino wool is naturally elastic. Gently reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to dry. Avoid excessive stretching or wringing.
Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten.
Ensure the fabric around the poppers is flat and aligned correctly. Sometimes a slight break-in period is needed for new poppers. If persistent, check for any fabric obstruction.
