Full details
These DILLING organic merino wool baby socks are designed for infants who need soft, breathable, and temperature-regulating footwear. The key benefit is superior comfort and skin-friendliness for sensitive baby skin, with a caveat that they are best suited for gentle play due to the natural fiber content. Key features include a wide elasticated cuff for a secure fit, a subtle ribbed texture for flexibility, and a blend of organic merino wool, polyamide, and elastane for durability and ease of wear.

FAQs
Are these socks suitable for newborns?
While made of soft merino wool, the size 12-18 months is typically for older babies. DILLING may offer smaller sizes suitable for newborns.
How do I know if the socks are the right size?
The size 12-18 months is generally for babies who are walking or actively exploring. Refer to the product's size chart for precise measurements based on your baby's foot length.
Can these socks be worn in all seasons?
Yes, merino wool is excellent for temperature regulation, making these socks suitable for both warmer and cooler weather.
Will the elastic cuff stretch out over time?
The blend includes elastane for elasticity, and the wide cuff is designed for a gentle, secure fit. Proper care will help maintain the elasticity longer.
Are there any specific detergents recommended for merino wool?
It is best to use a detergent specifically formulated for wool or delicates. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, and fabric softeners, as these can damage the wool fibers.
What does 'organic' mean in this context?
Organic refers to the wool being sourced from merino sheep raised under strict organic farming standards, meaning no harmful pesticides or chemicals were used in raising the sheep or processing the wool.
Troubleshooting
Socks seem too loose after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and washing on a gentle cycle at 30°C. Avoid tumble drying, which can cause shrinkage. If the issue persists, the elastic may have naturally stretched over time.
Baby's feet feel too warm
While merino wool is breathable, ensure the socks are the correct size. If they are too tight, they might impede circulation. Also, check the ambient temperature; the socks are designed to regulate, not overheat.
Socks are difficult to pull on
The blend of materials provides elasticity. Gently stretch the cuff and leg as you pull them onto your baby's foot. Ensure the baby's foot is dry.
