FAQs

Is this garment suitable for newborns?

Yes, the soft organic merino wool and the American neckline design make it comfortable and practical for newborns and babies.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING and measure your baby's chest, length, and compare it to the garment's dimensions. The onesie should have a close but comfortable fit.

Can I use this onesie year-round?

Yes, merino wool's natural thermoregulating properties make it suitable for year-round wear. It keeps babies warm in cooler temperatures and cool in warmer ones by managing moisture.

What does 'American neckline' mean?

An American neckline is typically wider and designed to be pulled down over the shoulders or slightly stretched, making it easier to dress or undress a baby without pulling the garment over their head, which is useful when the baby is being difficult.

Why doesn't it have enclosed feet?

The design without enclosed feet offers flexibility. It allows for a more adaptable fit as babies grow and provides the option for parents to choose the type and thickness of socks or booties based on the ambient temperature.

How often should I wash this onesie?

Wash as needed. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can often be aired out between wears. However, for hygiene, regular washing according to care instructions is recommended, especially after significant use or soiling.

Does DILLING offer this in other colors or sizes?

This specific product is available in Pink in size 9-12 months. DILLING may offer similar styles in different colors and a range of sizes for infants and children. Please check the brand's available collections for other options.

Troubleshooting

Garment feels scratchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Organic merino wool is typically very soft; scratchiness may indicate improper washing or a need for further rinsing.

Garment has shrunk after washing

Merino wool can shrink if exposed to high heat or agitation. Always use a cold or warm (max 40°C) gentle cycle and avoid tumble drying. Air dry only. If shrinkage is minor, it might stretch back with wear.

Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten

Ensure the fabric around the poppers is flat and not bunched. Try pressing firmly and evenly. If a popper appears damaged, contact customer support.

Baby feels too hot or cold

Merino wool is thermoregulating, but consider the overall layering system. If too hot, remove other layers. If too cold, add socks or a warmer outer layer. Ensure the fit is snug but not constricting.

  • Excellent temperature regulation, keeping the baby comfortable in varying climates.
  • Highly breathable fabric prevents overheating and promotes comfort.
  • Stretchy and lightweight design allows for unrestricted movement during play.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

This garment requires no setup; it is ready to wear straight out of the packaging.

Compatibility:

  • Sizing: Available in infant sizes (e.g., 9-12 months). Ensure you select the correct size based on your baby's measurements.
  • Footwear: Designed to be worn without enclosed feet, it pairs well with socks, booties, or other footwear as needed for warmth and protection.
  • Layering: Works effectively as a base layer under warmer clothing during colder months or as a standalone piece in milder conditions.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30-40°C (86-104°F). Use a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can impair the wool's natural properties.
  • Drying: It is best to air dry the garment. Lay it flat on a drying rack or hang it to dry, away from direct sunlight or heat sources. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can shrink merino wool.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting (wool setting).
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place. Avoid folding tightly for long periods if possible; hanging is an option.
