Product Information
Full details
These DILLING leggings are designed for infants who need soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating legwear. The key benefit is the 100% organic merino wool, which keeps babies comfortable in various conditions. A minor consideration is that while designed for movement, the close fit might feel restrictive for very active crawling babies if not sized correctly. They feature a comfortable fit, natural thermoregulation, and a secure elastic waistband and cuffs.

FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for newborns?
These leggings are sized for infants 9-12 months. For newborns, please check for smaller size options if available from the brand.
Can these leggings be worn in summer?
Yes, merino wool is breathable and thermoregulating, making it suitable for various temperatures. It helps keep the baby cool by wicking away moisture in warmer conditions.
How do I wash merino wool leggings?
Machine wash on a wool or delicate cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Do not use bleach or fabric softener. Lay flat to air dry.
Will these leggings restrict my baby's movement?
No, they are designed with a close but comfortable fit to allow for unrestricted movement during play and sleep.
What does 'thermoregulating' mean for my baby?
Thermoregulating means the wool helps maintain a stable body temperature. It keeps your baby warm when it's cold and helps them stay cool when it's warm by managing moisture.
Is the cream color safe for baby skin?
Yes, the cream color is a natural dye or the inherent color of the wool, and the fabric is 100% organic merino wool, making it safe for delicate baby skin.
Can I use a regular detergent?
It is strongly recommended to use a wool-specific detergent. Regular detergents, especially those with enzymes or bleach, can damage the delicate merino wool fibers.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Organic merino wool is generally very soft; itchiness might indicate detergent residue or a different material sensitivity.
Leggings have lost shape
Avoid high-heat washing or drying. Lay flat to dry after washing and gently reshape while damp. Consider a wool wash cycle with minimal spin.
Pilling on the fabric
Some pilling is natural with wool products, especially when new. Gentle washing and avoiding abrasion can minimize this. A fabric shaver can be used carefully if needed.
