FAQs
What makes these shorts suitable for both play and sleep?
The blend of organic merino wool and silk creates a fabric that is incredibly soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating. This means the shorts keep children comfortable whether they are actively playing or resting.
How do I care for the merino wool and silk blend?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle at 30-40°C with a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to air dry and iron on a low setting if needed. Do not tumble dry.
Are these shorts suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, the fine organic merino wool and silk blend is known for its softness and hypoallergenic properties, making it ideal for children with sensitive skin.
How does the adjustable cord work?
The elasticated waistband has an integrated adjustable cord that can be tied to secure the shorts at the desired fit, ensuring they stay in place during activity.
Can I use a regular washing machine cycle?
It is recommended to use the gentle or wool cycle on your washing machine to protect the delicate fibers of the merino wool and silk blend.
What is the benefit of the pointelle and frilled details?
These details add a decorative and stylish element to the shorts, making them aesthetically pleasing while maintaining comfort and functionality.
Troubleshooting
Shorts feel itchy
Ensure the garment has been washed according to care instructions. The fine merino wool and silk blend is designed to be soft, but initial washes can sometimes improve softness.
Elastic waistband feels too tight/loose
Adjust the internal drawstring to achieve a comfortable and secure fit. Ensure the drawstring is tied securely after adjustment.
Fabric appears to be pilling
Pilling can occur with natural fibers like merino wool. This is normal and can be gently removed with a fabric comb or shaver. Proper washing and drying techniques can minimize pilling.
