FAQs

Are these leggings truly non-itchy for kids?

Yes, the leggings are made from fine merino wool specifically chosen for its non-itchy properties, making it comfortable even for children with sensitive skin.

How do I know if I'm using the right detergent?

Look for detergents specifically labeled for wool or delicates, often containing lanolin. Avoid standard laundry detergents, bleach, and fabric softeners, as these can damage the merino fibers.

Can these leggings be worn year-round?

Merino wool is naturally temperature-regulating. They provide warmth in cooler months and breathability in warmer weather, making them suitable for year-round wear as a base layer or for moderate temperatures.

What is the best way to dry merino wool leggings?

The best method is to lay them flat on a towel, reshaping them gently to their original form, and allowing them to air dry away from direct heat or sunlight.

How do I check if I have the correct size?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING. The leggings are designed to be stretchy and offer a comfortable, close fit. Measure your child's waist and inseam for accuracy.

Are these leggings suitable for very active play?

While comfortable and stretchy, merino wool is a natural fiber. For extremely rough play or activities involving significant abrasion (like crawling on concrete), consider additional protective layers or more robust outerwear.

What does 'organic' mean in this context?

Organic refers to the wool being sourced from sheep raised under organic farming standards, which typically exclude synthetic pesticides and fertilizers, promoting animal welfare and environmental sustainability.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel stiff after washing

This can happen if a non-wool detergent or fabric softener was used. Wash again using a wool-specific detergent on a gentle wool cycle and lay flat to dry.

Pilling or slight wear after a few uses

Some minor pilling is normal with natural wool fibers. For excessive wear, ensure the child is not engaging in activities that cause excessive friction (e.g., crawling on rough surfaces without protection).

Leggings have lost their shape

Ensure you are following the care instructions. Avoid harsh spin cycles or tumble drying, which can damage the fibers. Reshape while damp and lay flat to dry.
