FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for very sensitive skin?
Yes, the merino wool is treated with an environmentally friendly enzyme treatment that makes it exceptionally soft and non-itchy, making it ideal for children with sensitive skin.
How do merino wool leggings help with temperature regulation?
Merino wool is a natural fiber that can insulate even when damp. It helps to keep the wearer warm in cold conditions by trapping air and cool in warm conditions by wicking moisture away from the skin and allowing for breathability.
Can these leggings be worn all year round?
Yes, due to their natural temperature-regulating properties, these leggings are suitable for year-round wear as a base layer.
What does the irregular ribbed structure do?
The irregular ribbed structure enhances the flexibility and stretch of the fabric, ensuring a comfortable fit that allows for a full range of movement.
How often should I wash these leggings?
Wash as needed. Over-washing can reduce the lifespan of wool garments. Often, airing out the leggings between wears is sufficient due to wool's natural odor-resistant properties.
Can I use a regular washing machine for these?
Yes, you can use a washing machine, but it must be on a specific wool or delicate cycle with cold or low temperatures (max 30-40°C) and a wool-specific detergent.
What is the benefit of the lace trim?
The tone-on-tone lace trim at the ankles is a decorative detail that adds a touch of style to the leggings.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel tight or restrictive after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a low temperature (max 30-40°C). Avoid harsh spin cycles. Merino wool has a natural elasticity that should return with wear.
Not as warm as expected.
Merino wool's warmth is relative to its breathability. Ensure the leggings are layered appropriately for the conditions and that other layers are not preventing moisture-wicking. Check for any potential damage or wear to the fabric.
Pilling observed on the fabric.
Some pilling is natural with merino wool, especially with initial wears. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasion can minimize this. Specialized wool combs can carefully remove pills if they become noticeable.
