FAQs

Are these leggings suitable for newborns?

Yes, these leggings are designed for infants and are available in various sizes, including smaller ones suitable for newborns. The soft merino wool is gentle on delicate skin.

How do I wash merino wool leggings?

Wash inside out on a delicate wool program (30°C or 40°C) using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softener and tumble drying. Lay flat to dry.

Can my baby wear these all day?

Yes, the thermoregulating and breathable properties of merino wool make them ideal for all-day wear, whether for playing or sleeping.

Do these leggings keep my baby warm in cold weather?

Merino wool provides excellent insulation. For very cold conditions, they are best used as a base layer under additional warm clothing.

What does 'thermoregulating' mean for my baby?

Thermoregulating means the fabric helps maintain a stable body temperature. It keeps your baby warm when it's cold and helps them stay cool by wicking away moisture when it's warm.

Are there other colors available?

Yes, these leggings come in a range of colors including Brown, Blue, and Green, in addition to Grey.

What is the main benefit of merino wool for baby clothing?

The primary benefits are its exceptional softness, natural temperature regulation, breathability, and moisture-wicking properties, which are crucial for a baby's comfort and sensitive skin.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel itchy or scratchy

Ensure the leggings are 100% merino wool. Sometimes, initial wear or washing can make them feel softer. Washing with a wool-specific detergent can help.

Leggings have shrunk after washing

This can happen if washed at too high a temperature or agitated too vigorously. Always use the recommended wool program (30°C or 40°C) and avoid high spin cycles.

Elastic waistband feels too tight

Merino wool is naturally stretchy. Ensure you have selected the correct size. If the fit is still too snug after a few wears, the natural elasticity may adjust slightly.

Garment loses shape

Lay flat to dry and avoid tumble drying. Reshape the garment gently while damp if necessary.
