FAQs
Are these leggings suitable for newborns?
These leggings are sized for children aged 3-4 years (UK size 3-4). Please refer to the size chart for other available age groups.
Can merino wool leggings be worn in summer?
Yes, merino wool is excellent for temperature regulation. It keeps you warm in cooler weather and helps to wick moisture away in warmer conditions, making it comfortable for year-round wear.
How often should I wash merino wool leggings?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. You can wear them multiple times between washes. Wash only when necessary, following the gentle care instructions.
Will these leggings itch my child's skin?
DILLING uses fine, organic merino wool specifically chosen for its softness. It is designed to be non-itchy and comfortable, even for sensitive skin.
What is the main benefit of merino wool compared to cotton?
Merino wool offers superior temperature regulation, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties compared to cotton. It also remains warm even when damp and is naturally odor-resistant.
Can I use a regular washing machine for these leggings?
Yes, but it's crucial to use the gentle or wool cycle setting on your machine and a wool-specific detergent. Avoid high temperatures and vigorous spin cycles.
What does 'organic' mean in relation to the merino wool?
Organic certification ensures that the wool comes from sheep raised under strict animal welfare and environmental standards, without the use of harmful chemicals in farming or processing.
Troubleshooting
Leggings feel scratchy after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a gentle wash cycle. Avoid fabric softeners. Air dry flat and gently reshape.
Leggings have lost their shape
Merino wool is naturally elastic. Gently reshape the leggings while they are damp after washing and lay them flat to dry. Avoid high heat.
Reduced warmth or breathability
Check care label for proper washing. Ensure no harsh detergents or excessive heat have been used, which can degrade wool fibers. Follow recommended care instructions strictly.
Color fading
Wash inside out in cold water with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight when drying.
