FAQs

Is merino wool itchy for children?

No, DILLING uses fine merino wool which is known for its softness and is non-itchy, even for sensitive skin.

How do I wash the merino wool fleece jacket?

It is recommended to machine wash on a wool program at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener, and dry flat.

Can this jacket be worn in very cold weather?

Yes, it functions excellently as an insulating mid-layer under a warmer outer jacket or raincoat during cold winter months.

What does it mean if the wool changes appearance?

This is a natural characteristic of pure, unblended wool fibers. With wear and washing, the fleece surface may change slightly or pill. This does not affect the material's warmth or other beneficial properties.

Is this jacket suitable for sensitive skin?

Absolutely. Merino wool is naturally hypoallergenic and very soft, making it ideal for children with sensitive skin.

Can I put this jacket in the dryer?

No, tumble drying is not recommended as it can damage the wool fibers and cause shrinkage. It should be dried flat.

What is the main benefit of merino wool for kids' clothing?

The primary benefit is its natural temperature regulation, breathability, and softness, which keep children comfortable in a wide range of temperatures and activities.

Troubleshooting

Jacket feels less soft after washing

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a low-temperature wool wash cycle. Avoid fabric softener, which can degrade wool fibers.

Pilling on the surface

This is a natural characteristic of 100% wool fleece. Gentle wear and washing can minimize it. You can carefully remove pills with a wool comb or fabric shaver if desired, but this is purely cosmetic and does not affect the jacket's warmth.

Zipper is stiff

Ensure the fabric is not caught in the zipper. Try gently working the zipper up and down. Applying a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a tiny bit of natural wax to the zipper teeth can help smoothen it.
