FAQs

Is this T-shirt suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, this T-shirt is made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its natural softness and is generally very well-tolerated by sensitive skin.

How often should I wash this merino wool T-shirt?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can often air out the garment between wears instead of washing it every time. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions.

Can I use a regular washing machine?

Yes, you can use a regular washing machine, but it must be set to a gentle wool cycle with cold water (max 30°C) and a wool-specific detergent.

What does the rib structure do?

The tiny rib knit structure provides increased flexibility and stretch, allowing the T-shirt to adapt to your child's movements for maximum comfort during any activity.

Is this T-shirt suitable for summer wear?

Merino wool is breathable and helps regulate body temperature, making it comfortable for many summer activities, especially in the evenings or cooler climates. However, as an outer layer, it might be too warm during peak heat.

What size is this specific T-shirt?

This guide refers to the DILLING Merino Wool T-shirt in Blue, size 5-6 years (UK children's size).

Does merino wool shrink easily?

Merino wool can shrink if exposed to high heat or agitated aggressively in a washing machine. Always follow the gentle wool cycle and cold wash instructions, and avoid tumble drying.

Troubleshooting

T-shirt feels itchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle cycle. Organic merino wool is typically very soft, so itchiness may indicate improper washing or the presence of other fibers if it's not a pure merino product.

Garment has shrunk or lost shape

Avoid high washing temperatures and tumble drying. Always wash on a cold/wool setting and lay flat to dry. Reshape the garment while damp.

Pilling on the surface

Some minor pilling is natural with merino wool over time, especially with friction. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Proper washing and handling minimize this.

T-shirt retains odors after washing

Ensure you are using an appropriate wool detergent and that the washing machine is clean. Sometimes, a second rinse cycle can help remove residual detergent or odors.
