FAQs
Are these tights suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, these tights are made from 100% organic merino wool and are Oeko-Tex certified, making them safe and gentle for sensitive skin.
How do I know if I've chosen the right size?
The size is indicated by children's UK sizes (5-6 in this specific product). Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING for specific measurements if unsure.
Can these tights be worn in summer?
Merino wool is breathable and temperature-regulating, so they can be comfortable in milder summer weather, but they are primarily designed for cooler conditions.
What is the main advantage of merino wool over regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer than regular wool, making them softer, less scratchy, and better at wicking moisture away from the skin while remaining breathable.
How often should I wash these tights?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and doesn't need to be washed after every wear. Airing them out can often suffice. Wash only when necessary to preserve the fibers.
Can I use a regular washing machine?
Yes, but only on a specific wool or delicate cycle at a low temperature (max 30°C) with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid high spin speeds.
Do these tights come in other colors or patterns?
This specific listing is for Grey with a Geometric pattern in size 5-6. DILLING may offer other colors and patterns in their range; please check their available collections.
Troubleshooting
Tights feel itchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent. Rinse thoroughly. Organic merino wool is generally very soft, but an initial wash might improve softness. Ensure the garment is not too tight.
Elastic waistband feels loose
Check washing and drying methods. Avoid high heat drying. If the elastic has genuinely lost its stretch, it may be due to excessive wear or improper care. Gentle hand washing and air drying are best.
Pattern looks uneven after washing
Handle gently during washing and avoid wringing. Lay flat to dry, reshaping the garment while damp. Minor variations can occur with knitted items.

Care Instructions:
To maintain the quality and longevity of your merino wool tights, follow these care instructions:
- Washing: Hand wash or machine wash on a gentle wool cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F).
- Detergent: Use a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as they can damage the wool fibers.
- Drying: Do not tumble dry. Gently squeeze out excess water and lay the tights flat on a towel to air dry, away from direct heat or sunlight.
- Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting with the garment inside out.
- Storage: Store folded in a cool, dry place. Avoid hanging, which can distort the shape.
