FAQs
What makes merino wool good for babies?
Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating, making it ideal for keeping babies comfortable in various conditions without irritation.
How should I wash these wool fleece trousers?
Machine wash on a wool program at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, and tumble drying. Lay flat to dry.
What does it mean if the wool fleece frays?
Fraying is a natural characteristic of unblended wool fibers over time with wear and washing. It indicates the material is pure wool and does not affect its insulating or protective properties.
Can these trousers be worn in very cold weather?
Yes, they are excellent as a warming mid-layer in cold weather. For extreme cold, additional outer layers may be necessary.
Are these trousers suitable for sensitive skin?
Merino wool is generally considered hypoallergenic and soft, but if irritation occurs, a thin cotton layer underneath can be worn.
How do the elasticated ankles work?
The ribbed elastic at the ankles provides a snug fit to keep cold air out and prevent the trousers from riding up, whether worn inside or over boots.
What is the difference between this and regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer and softer than traditional wool, making them less itchy and more comfortable for direct skin contact. This product specifically uses merino wool fleece for extra softness.
Troubleshooting
Trousers appear to be shrinking after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and the correct 'wool' or 'delicate' cycle on your washing machine, typically at 30°C. Avoid high temperatures and aggressive spin cycles. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat.
Fraying is noticeable on the surface.
This is a natural characteristic of unblended merino wool fleece as it is worn and washed. It does not impact the warmth or protective qualities of the wool. Gentle washing and avoiding excessive friction can minimize fraying.
Baby seems uncomfortable or itchy.
While merino wool is known for its softness, some individuals may have heightened sensitivity. Ensure the care instructions are followed to maintain the wool's softness. If irritation persists, consider using a thin cotton base layer underneath.
