FAQs
What makes merino wool good for base layers?
Merino wool is naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, temperature-regulating, and odor-resistant. It keeps you warm when it's cold and cool when it's warm, while drawing moisture away from the skin.
Can these leggings be worn directly against the skin?
Yes, these leggings are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its softness and is designed to be worn comfortably as a base layer directly against the skin.
How do I know the correct size to order?
Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING, which typically correlates age and height with specific sizes. Given the close-fitting design, selecting the correct size is important for comfort and effectiveness.
Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, 100% organic merino wool is hypoallergenic and very soft, making it an excellent choice for children with sensitive skin. It's less likely to cause irritation than coarser wools or synthetic fabrics.
How often should I wash these leggings?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, allowing for extended wear between washes. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers. Airing them out between wears can often refresh them.
What is the 'Nordic pattern'?
The Nordic pattern is inspired by nature and traditional Scandinavian designs, featuring geometric shapes that add a unique and cheerful aesthetic to the leggings.
Can these leggings be used for everyday wear, not just sports?
Absolutely. Their comfort and warmth make them ideal for everyday use during colder months, whether for playing indoors, going to school, or casual outdoor activities.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel itchy
Ensure you are using 100% organic merino wool and that the sizing is correct. Merino wool is generally soft, but individual sensitivity can vary. Try wearing them for a short period to break them in.
Leggings lost shape after washing
You may have used a heat setting that was too high or a non-wool cycle. Always wash on a gentle wool cycle at 30°C and lay flat to dry. Avoid tumble drying.
Material seems thin
The special knitting technique for the pattern creates a denser, warmer material in those areas. Merino wool is naturally fine but provides excellent insulation. Ensure the leggings are the correct size for a snug fit, which enhances warmth.
