Product Information

Full details

This DILLING Merino Wool Sleepsuit is designed for infants and toddlers (sizes 18-24 months), offering unparalleled comfort and temperature regulation for active days and restful nights. Its key benefit is the natural thermoregulation of merino wool, ensuring your child stays comfortable in any season. A potential caveat to consider is that holes may appear over time at the toe due to normal wear and tear. The onesie features easy nappy changes with leg poppers and an American neckline for simple dressing.

FAQs

Is this sleepsuit suitable for newborns?

Yes, the American neckline and soft merino wool make it comfortable for newborns. Ensure you select the appropriate size for a proper fit.

How often should I wash the sleepsuit?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and antibacterial. It can be worn multiple times between washes. Wash when visibly soiled or when it loses its freshness, following the care instructions.

Can I use a regular detergent?

It is strongly recommended to use a detergent specifically designed for wool. Regular detergents can strip the natural lanolin from the wool, damaging its fibers and reducing its insulating properties.

What does 'thermoregulating' mean for my baby?

Thermoregulating means the merino wool naturally adjusts to your baby's body temperature. It helps keep them warm when it's cold by trapping body heat and cool when it's warm by allowing heat to escape.

How do I know if I have the right size?

The sleepsuit should have a good, close-fitting shape without being restrictive. Ensure the arms and legs are not too tight and that there is enough room for comfortable movement. The size 18-24 months is intended for babies within that age range.

Are there other colors or patterns available?

This specific product is available in a brown striped pattern. Please check other product listings for different color or pattern options within the DILLING range.

Troubleshooting

Holes appearing at the toes

This is a natural occurrence due to wear and tear with merino wool. Consider reinforcing the toe area with a patch if desired, or replace the sleepsuit when significant wear occurs.

Sleepsuit loses shape after washing

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle wool cycle at 30°C. Always lay flat to dry and avoid wringing or stretching the garment.

Baby seems too warm or too cold

Merino wool is thermoregulating, but adjust layers based on ambient temperature and baby's activity. Ensure the fit is correct; not too tight or too loose.
