FAQs

Are these briefs suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, these briefs are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its exceptional softness and is generally very well-tolerated by sensitive skin. The smooth surface knitting further enhances comfort.

How does merino wool regulate temperature?

Merino wool fibers have a natural ability to wick moisture away from the skin and also to trap air. This means they can help keep you warm in cold conditions by retaining body heat and cool in warm conditions by allowing heat to escape and promoting airflow.

Can I machine wash these briefs?

Yes, you can machine wash them on a gentle wool program at 30°C (86°F) using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid high temperatures and harsh spinning.

What is the benefit of the smooth surface knitting?

The smooth surface knitting technique creates a fabric with high flexibility and a smooth finish, which prevents irritation and ensures maximum comfort for the child throughout the day, regardless of their activity level.

How often should I wash merino wool briefs?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can often be worn multiple times between washes, especially if aired out. Wash when necessary, following the care instructions to preserve the wool's quality.

What does 'GOTS-certified' mean for the organic merino wool?

GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification ensures that the merino wool is sourced from organic farms that adhere to strict environmental and ethical standards, from harvesting the wool to the finished product.

Will these briefs be too warm for summer?

Merino wool is breathable and thermoregulating, making it suitable for year-round wear. While it provides warmth in winter, its moisture-wicking properties also help keep the wearer cool in warmer temperatures by managing sweat.

Troubleshooting

Briefs feel itchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Double-check that the garment is 100% merino wool and not a blend. Sometimes, a few washes can further soften the fibers.

Garment has shrunk

Avoid high washing temperatures and tumble drying. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the garment while damp and laying it flat to dry. Future washes should strictly adhere to wool care guidelines.

Lace trim is damaged

Handle the garment with care during washing and avoid harsh snagging. If the lace is slightly frayed, a careful stitch might repair minor damage. Avoid machine drying, which can exacerbate damage.

Odor persists after washing

Ensure you are using an appropriate wool detergent and have followed the washing instructions precisely. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so persistent odor may indicate inadequate cleaning or residue buildup.
