FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, they are excellent as a base layer. For extremely cold conditions, consider layering them under warmer trousers or snow pants for added insulation.
How often should I wash these leggings?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can often air them out between wears. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions, to preserve the fiber quality.
Can these leggings be worn by children with eczema or sensitive skin?
Absolutely. The 100% organic merino wool is exceptionally soft, fine, and breathable, making it ideal for children with sensitive skin or conditions like eczema.
What is the difference between merino wool and regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer than those of traditional wool, making them significantly softer and less likely to cause itching. They also offer superior breathability and temperature regulation.
Can these leggings be used as outerwear?
While they are durable for play, they are best suited as a base layer or for indoor use. For outdoor activities in harsh weather, they should be layered under protective outerwear.
How do I know which size to choose?
Refer to the size guide provided by DILLING, which typically uses children's UK sizes. The leggings are designed for a close, comfortable fit.
What does GOTS certified mean?
GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard) certification ensures that the merino wool is organic and produced under strict environmental and social responsibility standards throughout the entire supply chain.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy or rough.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softener. Merino wool is naturally soft, so itchiness might indicate detergent residue or improper washing.
Leggings have lost their shape.
Reshape the leggings while damp and lay flat to dry. Avoid wringing or machine drying, which can cause stretching or shrinking.
Pilling (small balls of fiber) appears on the surface.
Pilling is a natural process for wool fibers, especially with friction. It can be reduced by washing inside out and using a wash bag. Gently remove pills with a wool comb or sweater shaver if desired.
Leggings smell after wearing.
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. If a smell persists after washing, ensure you are using a wool detergent and rinsing thoroughly. Airing out the leggings can also help refresh them between washes.
