FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for newborns?

Yes, the smallest size (0-3 months) is designed for newborns and infants. The soft material and comfortable fit are ideal for delicate newborn skin.

Can these leggings be worn year-round?

Absolutely. The merino wool's natural temperature-regulating properties make them suitable for both warm and cold weather. They provide warmth in winter and breathability in summer.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the size guide provided by DILLING, which typically correlates UK baby sizes with age ranges. The leggings should offer a close but comfortable fit, not too tight or too loose.

Is merino wool itchy?

High-quality merino wool, especially when blended with silk like this product, is extremely fine and soft. It is known for being non-itchy and comfortable against the skin.

Can I machine wash these leggings?

Yes, you can machine wash them on a gentle cycle at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid harsh chemicals and high heat.

What makes the merino wool and silk blend special?

The blend combines the temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking properties of merino wool with the exceptional softness and slight sheen of silk. This creates a luxurious feel that is gentle and effective for baby's skin.

How should I store these leggings?

Store them folded in a drawer or on a shelf. Avoid hanging them for long periods, as this can cause stretching. Ensure they are clean and dry before storing.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel stiff after washing.

This can sometimes happen with wool. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the water temperature is not too high. Re-wash on a gentle cycle with wool detergent, and air dry.

Elastic waistband seems loose.

Check if the leggings have been overstretched during washing or drying. Ensure you are following the recommended care instructions, particularly avoiding high heat tumble drying.

Baby experiences irritation.

While rare, if irritation occurs, discontinue use. Ensure the garment is clean and that no harsh detergents were used. The blend is generally excellent for sensitive skin, but individual reactions can occur.
