FAQs
What makes the merino wool and silk blend special?
This blend combines the natural temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking properties of merino wool with the softness and subtle sheen of silk, creating an exceptionally comfortable and breathable fabric.
Are these shorts suitable for all seasons?
The lightweight and breathable nature makes them ideal for warmer weather or as a base layer in cooler climates. Merino wool has natural thermoregulating properties.
How do I choose the right size?
Refer to the size chart provided. These shorts have a loose fit, but the adjustable cords help ensure a good fit.
Can these shorts be worn by boys and girls?
Yes, these shorts are designed as unisex and are suitable for all children.
What does 'pointelle' mean?
Pointelle refers to a knitting technique that creates a delicate, openwork pattern, often resembling eyelets or small floral motifs, adding a decorative touch to the fabric.
How often should I wash these shorts?
Wash as needed. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so airing them out between wears can extend the time between washes.
Troubleshooting
Fabric feels rough after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the water temperature was not too high. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
Shrinkage after washing.
The fabric is fine and may have shrunk if washed at too high a temperature or agitated excessively. Always use cold water on a delicate cycle and lay flat to dry.
Elastic waist feels too tight.
Gently stretch the elastic waistband by hand. The adjustable cords can also be loosened for a more comfortable fit.
