FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, 100% organic merino wool is excellent for cold weather due to its natural insulating properties and ability to keep the wearer warm even when damp.
Can my child wear these leggings every day?
Yes, their breathability and comfort make them suitable for daily wear. However, following care instructions will prolong their lifespan.
How do I know if the size is correct?
Please refer to the size chart provided by DILLING, considering the specific UK size (5-6) mentioned for this product. The leggings are designed to be stretchy and accommodate movement.
What makes merino wool different from regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer and softer than traditional wool, making them less itchy and more comfortable against the skin. They also have superior moisture-wicking and temperature-regulating capabilities.
Can I wash these leggings in a regular washing machine?
Yes, but only on a cold wool or delicate cycle, using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid high temperatures and harsh spin cycles.
Do these leggings have any synthetic materials mixed in?
No, these specific leggings are made from 100% organic merino wool, as indicated in the product description.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Merino wool is naturally soft, so itchiness may indicate residue. Check care labels for any specific instructions.
Leggings have lost their shape
Avoid tumble drying and excessive heat. Lay flat to dry after washing. If they have stretched, a gentle reshape while damp and air drying may help. Avoid wringing.
Pilling on the fabric
Some pilling is natural with wool over time, especially in high-friction areas. Use a fabric comb or de-piller gently. Washing inside out can help minimize this.
