FAQs

Are these hipsters suitable for very sensitive skin?

Yes, the organic merino wool is exceptionally soft and naturally hypoallergenic, making it ideal for children with sensitive skin.

How do I know if I've chosen the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING. Generally, ensure a snug but comfortable fit, especially around the waist and leg openings, allowing for movement without restriction.

Can these be worn as outerwear?

These hipsters are designed as underwear or a base layer. They are not intended to be worn as standalone outerwear.

How often should I wash these hipsters?

Wash as needed. Merino wool has natural antibacterial properties that help resist odor, so they can often be worn multiple times between washes if aired out.

What is the benefit of merino wool over regular cotton?

Merino wool offers superior temperature regulation, breathability, and moisture-wicking capabilities compared to cotton. It also stays warm even when damp and is naturally odor-resistant.

Can I use a regular laundry detergent?

It is highly recommended to use a wool-specific detergent. Regular detergents can be too harsh and may damage the fine merino wool fibers, reducing their natural properties and lifespan.

What does 'MPN' stand for?

MPN stands for Manufacturer Part Number, which is a unique identifier for the product.

Troubleshooting

Hipsters feel too tight at leg openings

Ensure the correct size is being used. For a looser fit at the leg, gently stretch the elasticated openings while damp. If the issue persists, consider a size up or a different style.

Reduced elasticity after washing

Avoid high heat drying and harsh detergents. Gently reshape the waistband and leg openings while the garment is damp. Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a gentle wash cycle.

Discomfort against skin

Merino wool is generally very soft. Ensure the garment is washed once before first wear to soften fibers further. Check for any stray threads or seams that might cause irritation.
