FAQs
Are these boxer shorts suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its softness and natural hypoallergenic properties. The flat stitching also helps minimize irritation.
How do I wash merino wool boxer shorts?
We recommend machine washing on a wool or delicate cycle at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Do not tumble dry; lay flat to air dry.
Can these be worn in both summer and winter?
Yes, merino wool is a natural temperature regulator. It provides warmth in cooler weather and remains breathable and moisture-wicking in warmer conditions, making it suitable for year-round wear.
What makes merino wool better than regular wool?
Organic merino wool fibers are much finer than those of regular wool, making them significantly softer and less likely to cause itching. It also offers excellent breathability and moisture management.
How often should I wash these boxer shorts?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can be worn multiple times between washes. Wash when they appear visibly soiled or if odor is present. Airing them out can refresh the garment.
What sizes are available?
These boxer shorts are available in various kids' sizes, indicated by UK children's sizing (e.g., 3-4, 5-6, 7-8, 9-10).
Why do these boxer shorts have flat stitching?
The flat stitching is a design feature to ensure maximum comfort. It lies flat against the skin, preventing the seams from rubbing or causing irritation, which is especially important for children's active movements.
Troubleshooting
Boxer shorts feel itchy.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have followed the washing instructions. New wool can sometimes feel slightly different until the first wash. If the issue persists, check the care label for any specific recommendations.
Shrinking after washing.
Merino wool can shrink if exposed to high heat. Ensure the wash cycle is cold or cool (max 30°C) and avoid tumble drying. Always air dry.
Waistband feels too tight or loose.
The wide elastic waistband is designed for a comfortable fit. If it feels too tight, gently stretch it out while damp. If too loose, consider if the size is correct for the child's current measurements.
