FAQs

Are these leggings truly itch-free for kids?

Yes, DILLING uses specially processed, fine merino wool that is designed to be itch-free, even for children with sensitive skin. The fibers are very soft and thin.

Can these leggings be worn year-round?

Absolutely. Merino wool's natural thermoregulating properties make it suitable for both warm and cold weather. It keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer by managing moisture and airflow.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING, considering your child's current measurements. These leggings are designed for a close, comfortable fit, but if you prefer a looser feel, you may consider sizing up.

Are these leggings suitable for babies?

This specific model is sized for children aged 3-4 years. DILLING offers a range of merino wool base layers suitable for various age groups, including babies.

What makes merino wool better than synthetic base layers?

Merino wool is a natural fiber that offers superior breathability, moisture-wicking, and temperature regulation compared to synthetics. It's also naturally odor-resistant and soft against the skin.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so they don't need to be washed after every single wear. Washing less frequently can help preserve the fibers. Wash when they appear visibly soiled or lose their freshness.

Can these be used for sports or high-intensity activities?

Yes, their breathability and moisture-wicking properties make them excellent for active play and sports. The snug fit ensures they stay in place and don't interfere with movement.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel too tight

Merino wool can have a close fit. If a looser feel is desired, consider sizing up. The natural fibers will also relax slightly with wear.

Pilling observed after washing

Some minor pilling can occur with natural fibers like merino wool, especially in the initial washes. This is normal and can be gently removed with a fabric comb. Ensure you are washing on a delicate cycle with appropriate detergent.

Leggings lost shape after washing

Ensure you are washing on a cold setting with a wool program and laying flat to dry. Avoid high heat and excessive wringing, which can stretch the fibers.
