FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for everyday wear?

Yes, these leggings are designed for everyday wear, offering comfort, flexibility, and durability for active babies.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the DILLING size chart, which typically correlates UK baby sizes to age ranges. The leggings should fit snugly but allow for movement without restricting.

Can I use regular laundry detergent?

No, it is best to use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicate fabrics. Regular detergents can strip the natural lanolin from merino wool, affecting its softness and durability.

Will these leggings keep my baby warm in winter?

Merino wool is an excellent insulator and helps regulate body temperature, making these leggings suitable for cooler weather. For very cold conditions, they can be layered with other clothing.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and requires less frequent washing than synthetic materials. Wash when visibly soiled or after a few wears, following the specific care instructions.

What makes merino wool better than cotton for baby leggings?

Merino wool is more breathable, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating than cotton. It stays warm even when damp and is naturally odor-resistant, making it ideal for active babies.

Can these leggings be worn in summer?

Yes, merino wool is breathable and can help keep babies cool by wicking away moisture. They are suitable for wear year-round, providing comfort in various temperatures.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel too tight.

Ensure you have selected the correct size. Merino wool can stretch slightly with wear but should not be uncomfortably tight. Check the size guide against your baby's measurements.

Leggings are not staying up.

Verify that the elasticated cuff is not damaged and is properly positioned. If the baby is particularly slim, consider if a smaller size might offer a snugger fit, or layer with a onesie that tucks in.

Merino wool feels itchy.

High-quality merino wool is known for its softness. If itchiness occurs, ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions. Some individuals may have sensitivities, but this is rare with fine merino.

Color has faded after washing.

Use a detergent designed for colored fabrics and wash inside out. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying, as this can cause colors to fade.
