FAQs

Are these leggings itchy?

No, these leggings are made from 100% organic merino wool that has undergone a special Plasma treatment to make it extremely soft and non-itchy against the skin.

Can I wear these leggings in warm weather?

While merino wool is breathable and helps regulate temperature, these leggings are primarily designed for cooler weather as an extra warming layer. They might be too warm for very hot conditions.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant, so they don't need to be washed after every wear. Wash them when they are visibly dirty or start to smell. Airing them out between uses can help refresh them.

What does 'Plasma treatment' mean for the wool?

Plasma treatment is an environmentally friendly process that alters the surface of the wool fibers, making them exceptionally soft and reducing the potential for itching without compromising the wool's natural properties.

Are these leggings suitable for babies?

These leggings are designed for children and come in specific kids' sizes. Please check the size chart to ensure a proper fit for your child.

Can I put these leggings in the dryer?

No, tumble drying is not recommended as it can cause the merino wool to shrink and damage the fibers. Always air dry them flat.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel less soft after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Reshape the leggings while damp and air dry them flat.

Leggings seem to have shrunk.

Merino wool can shrink if exposed to high heat. Avoid tumble drying and high washing temperatures. If minor shrinkage has occurred, try gently stretching the fabric while damp.

Visible snags or pulls in the fabric.

Gently try to push the snagged yarn back through to the inside of the fabric using a fine-tipped needle or pin. Avoid catching the fabric on rough surfaces.
