FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for very cold weather?

Yes, merino wool provides excellent insulation and warmth. For extreme cold, they can be layered with additional insulating garments.

How do I know what size to order?

The size UK 5-6 is suitable for children aged approximately 5-6 years. Please refer to the brand's specific size chart for detailed measurements to ensure the best fit.

Can these leggings be worn directly against the skin?

Yes, they are designed with 100% organic merino wool to be exceptionally soft and comfortable for direct skin contact, even for sensitive skin.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and antibacterial. Wash only when necessary, preferably by hand or on a gentle wool cycle. Airing them out between wears can extend the time between washes.

What makes merino wool better than regular wool?

Merino wool fibers are much finer than those of traditional wool, making them softer, less itchy, and more breathable. It also has superior moisture-wicking capabilities.

Can these leggings be used for sports activities?

Absolutely. The flexibility, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties make them ideal for various sports and active play.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy or rough.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the garment has been washed correctly according to care instructions. Merino wool is naturally soft, so roughness may indicate improper washing or drying.

Leggings have lost their shape.

Merino wool can stretch if dried improperly. Lay flat to dry immediately after washing and reshape while damp. Avoid wringing or stretching the garment excessively.

Noticeable odor after wear.

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. If an odor persists after washing, ensure you are using a suitable wool detergent and that the garment is thoroughly rinsed. Over-washing can also damage the fibers.
