Full details
This DILLING baby onesie is designed for infants who need comfortable, breathable, and temperature-regulating all-day wear. Its key benefit is the use of 100% organic merino wool, which is incredibly soft and naturally manages body temperature.

FAQs
Is merino wool itchy for babies?
This onesie is made from fine, 100% organic merino wool which is known for its exceptional softness. It is designed to be very gentle and comfortable against delicate baby skin, minimizing the risk of itchiness commonly associated with coarser wools.
Can this onesie be worn all year round?
Yes, due to its natural thermoregulating and breathable properties, the merino wool onesie is suitable for wear in all seasons. It helps keep babies warm in winter and cool in summer.
How do I wash the merino wool onesie?
It is best to machine wash on a delicate wool program at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent, or hand wash. Avoid fabric softener and do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry.
What does 'thermoregulating' mean for a baby garment?
Thermoregulating means the fabric helps to maintain a stable body temperature. It works by trapping air to keep warm when it's cold and allowing moisture vapor to escape when it's warm, preventing overheating.
Are there other sizes or colors available?
Yes, this style of baby merino wool onesie is available in various sizes and colors. Please check the product range for the 'Baby merino wool one-piece no feet' by DILLING for available options.
Why are there poppers on the shoulders?
The poppers on the shoulders, in addition to those between the legs, are designed to make dressing and undressing your baby easier and quicker, especially for nappy changes.
Troubleshooting
Onesie feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle wool cycle. Avoid fabric softeners, which can affect the wool's natural properties.
Baby seems too warm or too cold.
Merino wool is naturally thermoregulating. If your baby consistently seems too warm, ensure they are not overdressed in other layers. If too cold, check if another thin layer is needed. The onesie itself should adapt to the baby's body temperature.
Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten.
Ensure the poppers are aligned correctly before fastening. If they feel tight initially, they may loosen slightly with gentle use over time.
