FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for very sensitive skin?

Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its exceptional softness and hypoallergenic properties, making it ideal for sensitive skin.

Can these leggings be worn year-round?

Merino wool is naturally thermoregulating, meaning it helps keep you warm in winter and cool in summer. They are excellent as a base layer in colder months and comfortable on their own during milder weather.

How do I wash merino wool leggings?

Machine wash on a wool or delicates cycle at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to air dry; do not tumble dry.

Can these be worn as pajamas?

Yes, the softness, breathability, and thermoregulating properties of merino wool make these leggings very comfortable for sleepwear.

How do I care for the elastic waistband?

The elastic waistband is designed for durability. Standard wool care instructions (cold wash, gentle cycle, lay flat to dry) will help preserve its elasticity.

Will these leggings smell after being worn?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. It takes significantly longer to develop odors compared to synthetic fabrics, making them great for extended wear or travel.

What size should I choose for my child?

Please refer to the size chart provided by DILLING, considering your child's current measurements and the desired fit. These leggings have a close but comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the washing instructions. Organic merino wool is very soft, but improper care can affect its texture. If the issue persists, try wearing them with a very thin cotton layer underneath.

Shrinkage after washing

Avoid washing in hot water and never tumble dry. Always use the wool/delicates cycle (30°C max) and lay flat to dry. If shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the fabric while damp.

Pilling on the fabric

Pilling is natural with wool and can be reduced by washing inside out and using a gentler cycle. You can carefully remove pills with a fabric shaver or by gently picking them off.

Care Instructions:

To maintain the quality and longevity of the merino wool:

  2. Detergent: Use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicates. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
  3. Drying: Lay flat to air dry. Do not tumble dry, as high heat can damage the wool fibers.
