Full details

These DILLING Children's Merino Wool Leggings are designed for active kids who need comfortable, temperature-regulating base layers. The key benefit is the exceptionally soft and breathable organic merino wool, which keeps children comfortable in varying conditions.

FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, they are made from the softest 100% organic merino wool, which is known for being non-itchy and gentle on sensitive skin.

Can these leggings be worn year-round?

Merino wool is naturally thermoregulating, making these leggings suitable for year-round wear. They provide warmth in colder months and are breathable enough for milder temperatures.

How often should I wash these leggings?

Wash only when necessary. Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. When washing, use a wool cycle at 30°C with a wool-specific detergent and avoid fabric softener.

Can I put these leggings in the dryer?

No, never tumble dry merino wool. Always lay them flat to air dry away from direct heat to maintain their shape and fiber integrity.

What does 'thermoregulating' mean for my child?

It means the wool fibers naturally help keep your child at a comfortable temperature. They provide warmth when it's cold and help dissipate heat when it's warm, preventing overheating.

What is the difference between these and regular leggings?

These are made from natural merino wool, offering superior breathability, temperature regulation, and softness compared to synthetic or cotton leggings. They are also naturally odor-resistant.

What size should I choose for my child?

Please refer to the size chart provided by DILLING, considering your child's current measurements for the best fit. These leggings are designed for a close, comfortable fit.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy or scratchy

Ensure you are using 100% organic merino wool. Wash the leggings according to care instructions before first wear. If the issue persists, the fit might be too tight, causing friction.

Leggings lost their shape after washing

Avoid tumble drying and high heat. Always lay flat to dry and gently reshape while damp. Use a wool-specific detergent and a wool wash cycle.

Pilling on the fabric

Some pilling is natural with merino wool, especially with friction. To minimize, wash inside out, avoid harsh detergents or fabric softeners, and limit exposure to rough surfaces.

Garment doesn't seem to regulate temperature effectively

Ensure the garment is the correct size and fits snugly but comfortably. Check that other layers worn over or under are also breathable to allow the merino wool to function optimally.
