Full details
This DILLING Merino Wool Fleece Suit is designed for infants and toddlers, providing exceptional warmth and comfort, especially in colder weather. Its key benefit is the natural temperature-regulating and soft properties of merino wool, ensuring your little one stays cozy whether in a car seat or napping outdoors. A potential caveat is that the natural merino wool fleece may change appearance over time and fray, which is a characteristic of unblended natural fibers and does not impact its performance.

FAQs
What is the primary benefit of merino wool in this suit?
Merino wool is naturally temperature-regulating, breathable, soft, and hypoallergenic, making it ideal for keeping babies comfortable in various temperatures.
How do the fold-over feet and mittens work?
The feet and mittens have an extended cuff that can be folded over to cover the baby's hands and feet for extra warmth. They can be folded back to expose the hands and feet when not needed, allowing for movement.
Is this suit suitable for newborns?
Yes, the soft merino wool and the option to fully cover hands and feet make it very suitable for newborns, providing essential warmth and comfort.
Will the wool material pill or fray?
As it is made from 100% natural, unblended wool, it may change appearance over time and show some fraying or pilling from wear and washing. This is a natural characteristic and does not affect the wool's performance.
Can I use fabric softener when washing the suit?
No, it is recommended to avoid fabric softeners as they can coat the wool fibers and reduce their natural properties like breathability and temperature regulation.
How should I dry the suit after washing?
The suit should not be tumble dried. Lay it flat to dry on a clean towel or hang it on a clothesline away from direct heat or sunlight.
What sizes are available?
This specific guide refers to the DILLING Baby Merino Wool Fleece Suit in Green, size 3-5 UK baby. Other sizes and colors are available separately.
Troubleshooting
Suit feels less soft after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have avoided fabric softeners. Reshape the garment while damp and dry flat.
Visible fraying on the fabric.
This is a natural characteristic of unblended merino wool. It does not impact the warmth or protective qualities of the suit. You can gently trim any loose threads if desired.
