FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for a newborn?

Yes, the smallest size available is 0-6 months, which can be suitable for newborns, provided they fit comfortably. The soft merino wool and silk blend is ideal for delicate newborn skin.

How do I know which size to choose?

Refer to the size guide provided by DILLING, which typically uses UK sizing for babies (e.g., 12-18 months). The product description provides size information like 'size_baby_uk'. Measure your baby's height and waist to ensure a good fit.

Can these leggings be worn all year round?

Yes, the temperature-regulating properties of merino wool and silk make them suitable for year-round wear. They provide warmth in winter and breathability in summer.

Are merino wool and silk safe for babies with eczema?

Merino wool and silk are natural, breathable, and hypoallergenic fibers, which are generally well-tolerated by babies with sensitive skin or conditions like eczema. However, always monitor your baby's reaction.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Washing frequency depends on usage. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can be worn multiple times between washes. Airing them out can refresh the garment. Wash when visibly soiled or after significant sweating.

Will these leggings restrict my baby's movement?

No, the leggings are designed with a close, comfortable, and very flexible fit using stretchy material to ensure they do not restrict your baby's movement during play or sleep.

What is the benefit of the silk blend?

The silk blend enhances the softness and smoothness of the fabric, making it feel even more luxurious against the skin. It also contributes to breathability and moisture management.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy or rough after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a delicate cycle at a low temperature (max 30°C). Avoid fabric softeners and harsh detergents.

Leggings have shrunk after drying.

Avoid tumble drying. Always lay flat to dry away from direct heat sources. If shrinkage has occurred, gently stretch the garment while damp.

Elastic waistband seems loose.

Ensure the garment is washed and dried according to instructions. Over time, natural fibers may relax; avoid stretching the waistband excessively when putting on or taking off.

Stains are difficult to remove.

Treat stains gently and as soon as possible. For stubborn stains, consider a specialized wool stain remover and follow its instructions carefully. Avoid harsh scrubbing.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a wool or delicates cycle at a maximum of 30°C (86°F).
  • Detergent: Use a detergent specifically designed for wool or delicates. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners, as they can damage the natural fibers.
  • Drying: Lay flat to dry. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can shrink or damage the merino wool and silk.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low heat setting while the garment is still slightly damp, or use a steam iron.
  • General Maintenance: Reshape the garment while damp after washing. Avoid wringing out excess water.
