FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for very sensitive skin?

Yes, these leggings are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its softness and is generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin. It's a natural, breathable fiber that doesn't typically cause irritation.

How do merino wool leggings keep my child comfortable?

Merino wool has excellent natural temperature-regulating properties. It helps keep your child warm in cool conditions by trapping air and insulating, and it helps them stay cool in warmer conditions by wicking moisture away from the skin and breathing.

Can I machine wash these leggings?

Yes, you can machine wash them on a wool or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F) using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

How should I dry these leggings?

Do not put them in a tumble dryer. Lay the leggings flat to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

Will these leggings keep my child warm in winter?

Yes, the merino wool provides excellent insulation and warmth, making these leggings a great base layer for cold weather. They can be worn on their own or under other garments for added warmth.

Are these leggings suitable for summer use?

Yes, while they provide warmth, merino wool is also breathable and moisture-wicking, which can help keep children comfortable in milder summer temperatures or in air-conditioned environments.

What does 'single wool' mean in the description?

'Single wool' typically refers to a single layer of merino wool fabric, indicating it's not a heavy, double-layered garment but rather a lighter, versatile base layer.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy

Merino wool is naturally soft, but some individuals may have extreme sensitivity. Ensure the garment is washed according to care instructions before first wear. Proper washing can soften the fibers further.

Leggings have lost their shape

Merino wool is naturally elastic, but excessive stretching or improper washing/drying can affect its shape. Reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to dry. Avoid wringing or stretching.

Pilling occurs

Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool fibers due to friction. It can be managed by gently removing pills with a fabric shaver or by hand. Proper washing and reduced friction during wear can minimize pilling.
