FAQs

Are these leggings itchy for children?

No, these leggings are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its fineness and softness, making it very gentle and non-itchy against sensitive skin.

Can these leggings be worn year-round?

Yes, merino wool's thermoregulating properties make these leggings suitable for year-round wear. They keep children warm in colder weather and comfortable in warmer conditions.

What is the main benefit of merino wool for children's clothing?

The primary benefit is its natural ability to regulate body temperature, wick away moisture, and remain breathable, ensuring comfort during various activities and sleep.

How do I wash these merino wool leggings?

Machine wash on a wool program or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.

Should I tumble dry these leggings?

No, do not tumble dry. Lay the leggings flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight to maintain their shape and prevent shrinkage.

What does 'thermoregulating' mean in the context of this product?

Thermoregulating means the material helps your child's body maintain a stable, comfortable temperature. It keeps them warm when it's cold and cool when it's warm.

Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool, a natural fiber that is very soft and specifically recommended for sensitive skin.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel tight after washing

Merino wool can sometimes feel tighter after washing. Gently stretch the fabric while damp and lay flat to dry. Avoid high heat drying which can cause shrinkage.

Noticeable odor after wear

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. If an odor persists, ensure the leggings are washed according to the care instructions with a wool-specific detergent. Airing them out can also help.

Pilling on the fabric

Some pilling is normal with natural fibers like merino wool, especially with frequent wear and friction. This does not affect the performance. You can use a fabric comb to gently remove pills.
