FAQs
What makes merino wool ideal for baby clothing?
Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, and thermoregulating. It keeps babies warm in the cold and cool in the heat, wicks away moisture, and is gentle on sensitive skin.
How do I wash my merino wool sleepsuit?
Wash on a gentle or wool cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F) using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry.
Can this sleepsuit be worn year-round?
Yes, the thermoregulating properties of merino wool make it suitable for all seasons. It helps maintain a comfortable body temperature regardless of the weather.
Is this sleepsuit suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, organic merino wool is known for its softness and non-itchy properties, making it an excellent choice for babies with sensitive skin.
How easy is it to change nappies in this sleepsuit?
The sleepsuit features poppers between the legs, designed specifically to make nappy changes quick and convenient without needing to remove the entire garment.
What does the 'American neckline' mean?
An American neckline is designed to be wider and more flexible. It allows for easier dressing and undressing by providing ample room to get over the baby's head without fuss.
What should I do if my baby crawls a lot in this sleepsuit?
Crawling can cause wear on the fabric, especially at the knees and toes. To help preserve the material, consider having your baby wear socks over the sleepsuit's feet when crawling on abrasive surfaces.
Troubleshooting
Sleepsuit appears too tight or too loose
Ensure you have selected the correct size based on your baby's measurements. Merino wool has some natural stretch, but a significant fit issue may indicate an incorrect size choice.
Baby feels too warm or too cold
While merino wool is thermoregulating, consider the layers underneath and the ambient room temperature. Adjust clothing or room settings as needed. This sleepsuit is designed to adapt, but extreme temperatures may require additional layers or adjustments.
Stains on the sleepsuit
Treat stains promptly using a wool-safe stain remover. Avoid harsh chemicals. Wash according to care instructions.
Holes appearing at the toes
This is due to natural wear and tear. To extend the life of the sleepsuit, consider using socks over the feet for protection, especially for babies who are crawling or walking indoors.
