FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool, known for its fine, soft fibers that are gentle and non-irritating to delicate baby skin.

How do I wash my merino wool leggings?

Machine wash on a wool or delicates cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Do not tumble dry; lay flat to dry.

Can these leggings be worn year-round?

Yes, merino wool's natural thermoregulating properties make it suitable for wear in both warm and cool conditions. It keeps babies warm when it's cold and cool when it's warm.

What does 'merino wool' mean for my baby?

Merino wool is a type of fine, soft wool from Merino sheep. It's highly breathable, moisture-wicking, and naturally temperature-regulating, making it ideal for baby clothing.

Will the leggings stay up on my baby?

The leggings feature a practical elastic waistband and narrow elasticated leg cuffs designed to ensure they stay comfortably in place without slipping down.

Are these leggings machine washable?

Yes, they are machine washable on a wool or delicates setting at a maximum of 30°C, using a wool-specific detergent.

What size should I choose?

The product is listed as size 9-12 months, which is suitable for infants within that age range. Always refer to specific size charts if available for the most accurate fit.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel stiff after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Reshape the garment while damp and lay flat to dry. A gentle iron on a low setting can sometimes restore softness.

Leggings have lost their shape.

Merino wool can be reshaped while damp. Gently stretch and lay flat to dry, ensuring it dries evenly. Avoid high heat or tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage and loss of shape.

Baby seems too warm or too cool.

Merino wool is naturally thermoregulating, but consider the overall outfit and environment. These leggings are ideal as a base layer; adjust other clothing or room temperature as needed.

Pilling occurs on the fabric.

Some pilling is natural with wool fibers, especially with friction. This can often be gently removed with a fabric comb or shaver designed for wool. Ensure washing cycles are not too aggressive.
