FAQs

What makes merino wool suitable for children's underwear?

Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, temperature-regulating, and moisture-wicking, making it exceptionally comfortable for children's sensitive skin and active lifestyles.

How do I know if I have the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING. The briefs are designed for a close, comfortable fit, so ensure you select the size that corresponds to your child's measurements.

Can these briefs be worn year-round?

Yes, the temperature-regulating properties of merino wool make them suitable for both warm and cold weather. They help keep children cool in summer and warm in winter.

Are these briefs suitable for sensitive skin or eczema?

Yes, 100% organic merino wool is known for its softness and hypoallergenic properties, making it an excellent choice for children with sensitive skin or conditions like eczema.

How often should I wash these briefs?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can often air them out between wears. Wash when necessary, following the specific care instructions for wool garments.

What is the main benefit of the rib knit construction?

The irregular rib surface provides exceptional flexibility and stretch, allowing the briefs to move comfortably with the child's body during any activity without restriction.

Do these briefs have any synthetic materials?

No, these briefs are made from 100% organic merino wool. The elastic waist and lace trim also use materials suitable for delicate skin.

Troubleshooting

Briefs feel itchy or rough after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the garment was not exposed to high heat. Rinsing thoroughly and drying flat can help restore softness.

Elastic waistband has lost its stretch.

This can happen with improper washing (e.g., high heat). Avoid high temperatures and harsh detergents. Gentle hand washing and air drying are best for preserving elasticity.

Garment has shrunk.

Merino wool can shrink if exposed to high temperatures or agitated washing. Always use a cold or wool cycle and avoid machine drying. If slightly shrunk, gently stretching while damp may help.

Cons

  • Requires specific care to maintain wool integrity (e.g., hand wash or wool cycle).
  • Lace trim might be perceived as less durable than a plain finish.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and longevity of your merino wool briefs, follow these care guidelines:

  1. Washing: Hand wash or use a gentle machine wash cycle (wool program) with a maximum temperature of 30°C. Use a wool-specific detergent.
  2. Rinsing: Rinse thoroughly without wringing.
  3. Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently reshape and lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight or heat sources.
  4. Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting (wool setting) while the garment is still slightly damp.
  5. Avoid: Do not use bleach or fabric softeners, as these can damage the merino wool fibers.
