FAQs
Is this onesie suitable for a newborn?
Yes, the onesie is suitable for infants and newborns. The sizes are designed to fit babies from 0-3 months upwards. The softness and thermoregulating properties of merino wool are particularly beneficial for newborns.
Can this be worn as pajamas?
Absolutely. The breathable and thermoregulating nature of merino wool makes it an excellent choice for sleepwear, helping to keep your baby comfortable throughout the night.
How often should I wash the onesie?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can be worn multiple times between washes. Wash when visibly soiled or if odor is present. Spot cleaning small stains is also an option.
Will my baby overheat in this onesie?
No, merino wool is highly breathable and thermoregulating. It helps maintain a stable body temperature, wicking away moisture and allowing excess heat to escape, thus preventing overheating.
Are the frilled edges durable?
The frilled edges are delicate. While they add a decorative touch, care should be taken to avoid snagging them on rough surfaces during play or when the baby is in contact with abrasive materials.
Can I use a regular washing machine?
Yes, but only on a delicate or wool cycle with cold water (maximum 30°C) and a wool-specific detergent. Avoid high spin speeds. It is crucial to air dry afterwards.
What does 'no feet' mean?
'No feet' means the onesie is a full-length body suit that ends at the ankles, leaving the feet uncovered. This allows babies to move their toes freely and can be paired with socks or booties as needed.
Troubleshooting
Onesie feels itchy or scratchy
Merino wool is naturally soft, but ensure the garment is properly washed according to care instructions. Sometimes, a first wash can further soften the fibers. Check if any external tags are causing irritation and consider removing them.
Onesie has shrunk after washing
This likely occurred due to washing at too high a temperature or tumble drying. Always follow the 30°C and air-dry recommendations. If shrinkage is minor, you may be able to gently stretch the garment back into shape while damp.
Poppers are difficult to fasten or unfasten
Ensure the popper ends are aligned correctly before pressing. If they feel stiff, a gentle, consistent pressure is usually sufficient. Avoid forcing them, which could damage the fabric around the poppers.
Color fades quickly
Merino wool colors can fade with excessive exposure to sunlight. Always dry the garment in the shade and store it away from direct light. Washing inside out can also help preserve the color.
