FAQs

Are these trousers itchy?

No, these trousers are made from fine merino wool, which is known for its softness and is generally non-itchy, even for sensitive skin.

Can my child wear these in warm weather?

Merino wool is breathable and temperature-regulating. While they can be worn in milder warm weather, they are best suited for cooler spring and autumn days. For very hot weather, lighter, less insulating materials might be more comfortable.

How does the reinforced knee work?

There is an additional layer of the same merino wool terry fabric sewn onto the outside of the knee area to provide extra protection against wear and tear from crawling or playing.

Is the drawstring safe for children?

Yes, the drawstring is designed for safety. It is secured within the waistband, meaning it cannot be fully pulled out and has no loose ends dangling.

How often should I wash these trousers?

Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and can be worn multiple times between washes. Wash when visibly soiled or when odors persist. Airing them out between wears can help refresh the fabric.

What is merino wool terry fabric?

It's a type of fabric where the merino wool is knitted to create a soft, looped texture on the inside (like a towel's terry cloth) for extra coziness, while the outside remains smooth.

Troubleshooting

Trousers feel stiff after washing

Ensure you used a wool-specific detergent and avoided fabric softener. Washing again on a gentle wool cycle with the correct detergent may help. Air dry completely.

Trousers have shrunk

This is often due to washing at too high a temperature or tumble drying. For minor shrinkage, you might try gently stretching the fabric while damp. Future washes should strictly follow care instructions.

Pilling on the fabric surface

Pilling is natural for wool fibers, especially with friction. You can gently remove pills with a fabric shaver designed for wool or by carefully picking them off by hand. Proper care can minimize this.

Care Instructions:

  • Washing: Machine wash on a wool program (max 30°C or 40°C) using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid fabric softeners, as they can damage the wool fibers.
  • Drying: It is best to air dry these trousers. Lay them flat on a drying rack to maintain their shape. Avoid tumble drying, as high heat can shrink or damage the merino wool.
  • Ironing: If necessary, iron on a low setting, preferably on the reverse side.
  • Storage: Store clean and dry in a well-ventilated area. Consider using moth repellents if storing for extended periods.
