FAQs
Are these hipsters suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, they are made from fine, organic merino wool, which is known for its softness and hypoallergenic properties, making it suitable for most sensitive skin types.
How does merino wool help regulate temperature?
Merino wool fibers have a natural crimp that creates air pockets, providing insulation in cold weather. They also wick moisture away from the skin and breathe well, helping to keep the wearer cool in warmer conditions.
Can these hipsters be worn year-round?
Absolutely. The temperature-regulating properties of merino wool make them comfortable in both warm and cold weather, serving as a versatile base layer.
How often should I wash these hipsters?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can be worn multiple times between washes if not soiled. Wash when necessary, following the care instructions to maintain the wool's integrity.
What is the difference between this merino wool and regular wool?
Organic merino wool fibers are much finer than traditional wool, making them significantly softer, less itchy, and more breathable. It's specifically bred for its comfort against the skin.
How do I choose the correct size?
Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING. For this specific product, the size '7-8 Years' is indicated. Ensure measurements align with the child's current size for the best fit.
Troubleshooting
Hipsters feel scratchy or irritating.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the garment has been washed according to care instructions. Organic merino wool is typically very soft, so irritation may be due to external factors or the need for an initial wash.
Elastic waistband has lost its stretch.
This can happen with excessive heat during washing or drying. Always follow the recommended low-temperature washing and air-drying methods. If significant stretching occurs, it may indicate premature wear.
Shrinkage after washing.
Avoid high temperatures during washing and do not tumble dry. If minor shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the garment while damp and laying it flat to dry.

Care Instructions:
To ensure the longevity and performance of the merino wool:
- Washing: Machine wash on a wool program (delicate cycle) at a maximum of 30-40°C (86-104°F).
- Detergent: Use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicates. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Lay flat to dry away from direct heat or sunlight. Reshape while damp if necessary.
- Ironing: If ironing is needed, use a cool setting (low heat).
- Pilling: Minor pilling may occur over time with friction, which is normal for wool products. This can often be gently removed with a wool comb.
