FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for newborns?
Yes, the size 0-3 months is suitable for newborns and younger infants. Always check the size guide for the best fit.
Can these leggings be worn in all seasons?
Yes, the thermoregulating properties of merino wool make them ideal for year-round wear. They help keep babies warm in winter and cool in summer.
How do I know if I'm washing them correctly?
Use a wool or delicate cycle on your washing machine at 30°C or below, with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Always air dry or tumble dry on low heat.
Is merino wool truly non-itchy for babies?
DILLING uses very fine merino wool fibers that are processed to be soft and flexible, significantly reducing the chance of itchiness. It's generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin.
What does 'thermoregulating' mean for a baby?
Thermoregulating means the fabric helps maintain a stable body temperature. It insulates when it's cold and wicks moisture away to help cool down when it's warm.
Can these leggings be worn as outerwear?
They can be worn as outerwear in mild weather or as a base layer under snowsuits or other clothing in colder temperatures. Their flexibility makes them great for active play.
What is the expected lifespan of these leggings?
With proper care, merino wool garments are very durable and can last a long time, often being passed down to younger siblings.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel tight after washing
Gently stretch the fabric while damp to help it regain its original shape and size. Ensure you are following the recommended washing and drying instructions.
Itchy sensation reported by the child
While merino wool is typically no-itch, ensure the care instructions have been followed precisely. Sometimes, a new garment might need a wash to soften further. If irritation persists, consider a different material.
Pilling on the fabric
Some pilling is normal with natural wool fibers, especially with frequent use. To minimize it, wash inside out and use a gentle cycle. Pilling can be gently removed with a fabric shaver.
