FAQs
Are these socks suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, these socks are made from organic merino wool, which is known for its softness and hypoallergenic properties, making it gentle on sensitive skin.
How do I know which size to choose?
The socks are sized for children, with specific UK sizes indicated (e.g., 7-8). It's recommended to choose the size that most closely matches your child's current shoe size.
Can these socks be worn year-round?
Yes, merino wool is excellent for temperature regulation. It helps keep feet warm in winter and cool in summer by breathing and wicking moisture.
How durable are these socks?
The blend of 90% merino wool with 8% polyamide and 2% elastane provides good durability for active children, ensuring they can withstand regular wear and washing.
What does the DILLING logo on the sole mean?
The DILLING logo and size are printed subtly on the sole of the foot in a contrasting color. It's a mark of authenticity and a practical way to identify the size.
Can I machine dry these socks?
No, it is not recommended to tumble dry these socks. They should be laid flat to dry naturally to maintain their shape and the integrity of the merino wool fibers.
What is the main benefit of merino wool in socks?
The primary benefits of merino wool in socks are its natural softness, breathability, moisture-wicking capabilities, and excellent temperature regulation, keeping feet comfortable in various conditions.
Troubleshooting
Socks slipping down
Ensure the correct size is being worn. Check that the elasticated cuff is not stretched out from previous washes. Follow care instructions to maintain elasticity.
Socks feel less soft after washing
Avoid using fabric softener. Wash on a gentle cycle with cool water and lay flat to dry. If stiffness persists, a very low heat iron may help, but avoid high temperatures.
Socks seem too warm
Merino wool's breathability helps regulate temperature, but in very hot conditions, they may feel warmer than synthetic alternatives. Ensure the child is not overdressed overall.
