FAQs
Is merino wool suitable for all seasons?
Yes, merino wool is naturally thermoregulating, meaning it helps keep your baby warm in cold weather and cool in warm weather, making it suitable for year-round wear.
How often should I wash the bodysuit?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and self-cleaning to a degree. Washing after each wear is not always necessary. Airing out the garment can often suffice. Wash when visibly soiled or if odor is present, following the care instructions.
Can this bodysuit be worn directly against the skin?
Absolutely. The 100% organic merino wool is exceptionally fine and soft, designed specifically for direct contact with a baby's delicate skin without causing irritation.
What makes the American neckline beneficial?
The American neckline is designed with a wider opening and flexible fabric, making it easier to pull the bodysuit on and off your baby, especially over their head, without causing discomfort.
Are there other colors available?
This guide focuses on the 'Blue' variant. Please check the product listing for availability of other colors or patterns.
What is the best way to dry the bodysuit?
Always lay the bodysuit flat to dry on a towel or drying rack. Avoid wringing or twisting the fabric, and never use a tumble dryer, as heat can damage the wool fibers.
Can I use a regular washing machine?
Yes, provided you use a specific wool program on your machine (typically a cold or low-temperature cycle) and use a detergent designed for wool. Always wash inside out.
Troubleshooting
Bodysuit feels rough or itchy
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and have rinsed thoroughly. Re-wash with a wool conditioner if necessary. The softness of merino wool can sometimes be perceived differently by highly sensitive skin.
Bodysuit has shrunk after washing
Merino wool can be sensitive to heat. Hand wash or use a very gentle wool cycle at a low temperature (30°C/86°F). Avoid tumble drying; always air dry flat.
Poppers are difficult to fasten/unfasten
Ensure the poppers are aligned correctly before fastening. If they feel stiff, try gently working them back and forth a few times. Ensure no fabric is caught in the poppers.
