FAQs

Are these briefs suitable for very young children?

Yes, the soft, 100% organic merino wool is ideal for children's sensitive skin, making them suitable from toddlerhood upwards.

How do I know which size to choose?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING, typically based on age and measurements. The size for this specific product is UK children's 7-8.

Can I wear these in summer?

Yes, merino wool is excellent for temperature regulation. It will help keep children cool by wicking away moisture in the summer and warm in the winter.

How often should I wash these briefs?

It's best to wash them after each wear to maintain hygiene. Follow the specific care instructions for wool to preserve the fabric.

What makes merino wool different from regular wool?

Merino wool fibers are much finer than those of regular wool, making them significantly softer, less itchy, and more breathable. It also has excellent moisture-wicking and odor-resistant properties.

Do these briefs have a fly opening?

No, these are designed as standard briefs without a fly opening.

Can these be worn for sports?

Yes, their breathability, moisture-wicking capabilities, and flexibility make them a good choice for many sports and physical activities.

Troubleshooting

Briefs feel scratchy or stiff after washing.

Ensure you used a wool-specific detergent and did not use fabric softener. Avoid high washing temperatures or harsh spin cycles. Re-wash on a delicate cycle with wool detergent and air dry.

Elastic waistband has lost elasticity.

This may occur with improper washing (e.g., high heat, harsh detergents). Try washing on a very gentle cycle and air drying. For significant loss of elasticity, replacement might be necessary.

Briefs feel damp after activity.

While merino wool is highly moisture-wicking, extreme activity can saturate any fabric. Ensure the garment is not too tight, allowing for better air circulation. Air the briefs out completely after use.
