Full details

This DILLING Merino Wool Sleepsuit is ideal for infants needing comfortable, adaptable clothing for day and night. Its key benefit is the natural thermoregulation of merino wool, keeping your baby perfectly comfortable in any season.

FAQs

Is merino wool itchy for babies?

No, high-quality merino wool like that used by DILLING is very fine and soft, making it non-itchy and comfortable even for sensitive baby skin.

Can this sleepsuit be worn year-round?

Yes, the natural thermoregulating properties of merino wool make it suitable for all seasons. It keeps babies warm in winter and cool in summer.

How often should I wash the sleepsuit?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and breathable. It doesn't need to be washed after every use. Airing it out can often suffice. Wash when visibly dirty or after a few wears, following the care instructions.

What does 'American neckline' mean?

An American neckline is an envelope-style neckline that typically has extra fabric and stretch, allowing it to be easily pulled down over a baby's shoulders or pulled up over their head for simpler dressing and undressing.

Can I use a regular washing machine cycle?

No, it's recommended to use a specific wool program or a delicate cycle on your washing machine at 30°C. Avoid standard cycles which can be too harsh.

What is the size range for this specific sleepsuit?

This particular product is sized for babies aged 6-9 months.

Troubleshooting

Sleepsuit appears too small after washing

Merino wool can sometimes feel snug when wet. Ensure it is laid flat to dry; it should return to its original size as it dries. Avoid stretching it.

Wool feels stiff after washing

This can happen if a harsh detergent or fabric softener was used. For future washes, use a specific wool detergent and avoid fabric softeners.

Holes appearing at the toes

This is noted as potential wear and tear. Ensure the baby's toenails are trimmed to minimize snagging and friction. For minor holes, consider mending them.
