FAQs

Is merino wool suitable for all seasons?

Yes, merino wool is a natural thermoregulator, providing warmth in colder temperatures and helping to keep cool in warmer conditions by wicking moisture away from the skin.

Can these leggings be worn as pajamas?

Absolutely. The softness, breathability, and thermoregulating properties of merino wool make these leggings very comfortable for sleepwear.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and breathable. You don't need to wash them after every wear. Airing them out can often suffice. Wash only when visibly soiled or when the odor becomes noticeable.

What is the best way to wash merino wool?

Use a wool-specific detergent on a gentle cycle at 30°C (86°F) or colder. Avoid fabric softeners and bleach.

Can I put merino wool leggings in the dryer?

No, never tumble dry merino wool. High heat will damage the fibers and cause shrinkage. Always lay them flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

Are these leggings scratchy like regular wool?

No, 100% organic merino wool used in these leggings is exceptionally fine and soft, designed to feel gentle against sensitive skin and is not itchy.

What does 'close, but comfortable fit' mean?

It means the leggings are designed to hug the body without being too tight, ensuring they stay in place during activity while allowing for freedom of movement.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy

Ensure you are using 100% organic merino wool, which is naturally soft. Washing according to care instructions can further soften the fibers. Ensure the correct size is being worn, as a too-tight fit can feel uncomfortable.

Leggings shrinking after washing

Avoid washing in hot water and do not tumble dry. Always use a cold or wool cycle and lay flat to dry.

Pilling or wear on the fabric

Some pilling is natural with wool fibers. For excessive wear, ensure the garment is not being used for extremely rough activities that could cause abrasion. Follow care instructions strictly.
