FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, 100% organic merino wool is known for its softness and breathability, making it an excellent choice for children with sensitive skin. It naturally wicks moisture away, reducing irritation.
How do merino wool leggings keep my child warm?
Merino wool fibers have natural crimps that trap air, creating insulation. The wool also reacts to body temperature, providing warmth when it's cold and helping to release heat when the body warms up.
Can these leggings be worn in warmer weather?
Yes, merino wool is also breathable and moisture-wicking, which helps keep the skin dry and comfortable even in warmer temperatures, preventing overheating.
What is the best way to wash merino wool leggings?
Machine wash cold (30-40°C) on a wool or delicate cycle using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softener and bleach. Lay flat to dry.
How long do DILLING merino wool leggings last?
With proper care, merino wool garments are very durable and can last for several years, maintaining their shape and thermal properties.
Do these leggings have a tight fit?
The leggings are designed with a slim, flexible fit that allows for movement. They are not intended to be skin-tight but rather a comfortable, close-fitting base layer.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy
Ensure they are 100% merino wool. High-quality merino is typically soft; itching might occur if the garment is new and hasn't been washed, or if there is a rare sensitivity to wool. Wash according to care instructions.
Shrinkage after washing
Avoid high heat washing and especially tumble drying. Always wash on a cold/wool setting and lay flat to dry.
Reduced elasticity
Avoid using fabric softener or bleach, as these can degrade wool fibers. Ensure proper drying methods are used.
Pilling on the surface
Pilling is a natural occurrence with wool fibers due to friction. It does not affect the garment's performance. You can gently remove pills with a wool comb or de-piller.
