FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, merino wool is an excellent insulator and temperature regulator, making these leggings ideal for cold weather, including as a base layer for skiing.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING. For children, it's often best to measure their height and compare it to the recommended sizing. Consider that merino wool leggings have some natural stretch.

Can these be worn directly against the skin?

Absolutely. The special enzyme treatment makes the merino wool exceptionally soft and non-itchy, making them perfect for direct skin contact.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and breathable, so they can be worn multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions to maintain the fabric's quality.

What does the enzyme treatment do?

The enzyme treatment further softens the merino wool fibers, making them feel extra gentle and comfortable against the skin, significantly reducing any potential itchiness associated with wool.

What is the benefit of the ribbed structure?

The irregular ribbed structure increases the fabric's flexibility and elasticity, allowing for greater freedom of movement and a comfortable, snug fit.

Can these leggings be machine dried?

No, it is not recommended to tumble dry these merino wool leggings. High heat can damage the wool fibers and cause shrinkage. Always air dry them flat.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the washing instructions. The enzyme treatment is designed to prevent itchiness, so re-washing might help if residue from other detergents is present.

Lace trim is damaged

Hand-wash the leggings or use a mesh laundry bag on a gentle cycle. Avoid high spin speeds and direct heat when drying. For minor damage, gentle stitching may repair it.

Leggings lost shape

Reshape the leggings while damp and lay them flat to dry. Avoid stretching or wringing them out vigorously. Ensure they were not dried on high heat.

Wool feels less soft after washing

Check that no fabric softener was used. Re-wash with a wool-specific detergent on a gentle cycle. Ensure the leggings are air-dried and not exposed to harsh chemicals.
