Product Information
Full details
These DILLING merino wool terry trousers are designed for children seeking comfort and durability, especially during transitional seasons like spring and autumn. The key benefit is the natural temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking properties of merino wool, coupled with reinforced knees for extended wear. A potential consideration is that merino wool requires specific care to maintain its quality. These trousers feature a soft fleece interior, smooth exterior, elasticated ribbed waistband and hem for a snug fit, and an internal, secured drawstring for safety.

FAQs
Are these trousers suitable for very cold weather?
Yes, merino wool is excellent for insulation and warmth. They can be worn on their own in mild to cool weather or as a base layer under heavier outerwear in colder conditions.
How do I know if I have the right size?
Refer to the size guide for UK children's sizes. The elasticated waistband and adjustable drawstring help ensure a comfortable, snug fit even if there's slight variation.
Can these trousers be worn by girls and boys?
Yes, these trousers are designed as unisex and are suitable for children of all genders.
What makes merino wool better than regular wool for children's clothing?
Merino wool fibers are much finer than regular wool, making them significantly softer and less prone to itching. They also offer superior moisture-wicking and temperature-regulating properties.
How often should I wash these trousers?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and breathable, meaning they can often be worn multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions to maintain the wool's integrity.
What does 'terry trousers' mean in this context?
It refers to the knitted structure of the fabric, which has loops on one side (like a towel, hence 'terry') providing extra softness and absorbency, combined here with a smooth outer surface.
Troubleshooting
Trousers feel scratchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the correct washing instructions. Merino wool is naturally soft, so scratchiness might indicate improper care or a need for a gentle rinse.
Elastic waistband has lost its stretch
This is uncommon with quality elastic. Avoid high heat during washing and drying, as this can degrade elastic over time. Gentle care as recommended should preserve the stretch.
Pilling on the fabric surface
Some minor pilling can occur with natural wool fibers, especially with friction. This is normal and can be managed with a fabric shaver if desired. Proper washing and minimal friction during wear can help reduce pilling.
