FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for newborns?

This specific size is for 3-5 months. DILLING offers various sizes, including smaller ones suitable for newborns. Always check the size guide for the best fit.

How do I know if the size is correct?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING. For these leggings, size 3-5 is typically for infants aged 3-5 months. Ensure a snug but not tight fit for optimal comfort and movement.

Can these leggings be worn in all seasons?

Yes, the thermoregulating properties of merino wool make them suitable for year-round wear. They provide warmth in winter and breathability in summer.

Is merino wool itchy for babies?

DILLING uses very fine merino wool fibers that are exceptionally soft and non-itchy, even for sensitive baby skin. It's known for its comfort compared to traditional wool.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and doesn't require frequent washing. Airing out the leggings between wears can often suffice. Wash only when necessary, following the care instructions.

What does 'organic' mean in this context?

'Organic' refers to the wool being sourced from sheep raised under organic farming standards, ensuring environmental sustainability and animal welfare without harmful pesticides or chemicals.

Can I machine dry these leggings?

No, tumble drying can damage the merino wool fibers and cause shrinkage. Always lay flat to air dry.

Troubleshooting

Leggings appear to have lost shape after washing.

Merino wool can sometimes stretch slightly when wet. Ensure you are laying them flat to dry and avoid wringing them out excessively. Reshaping gently while damp can help restore form.

Baby seems uncomfortable or itchy.

While merino wool is known for its softness, very sensitive skin might react. Ensure the garment is the correct size and not too tight. Double-check that you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly.

Pilling (small balls of fiber) appearing on the fabric.

Some pilling is natural with wool fibers, especially with initial wear and washing. This can be gently removed with a fabric comb or by using a wool-specific wash cycle and detergent to minimize it.
