FAQs

What makes this blend of merino wool and silk special?

The combination of fine organic merino wool and silk creates an exceptionally soft, lightweight, and breathable fabric. It offers natural temperature regulation, moisture-wicking properties, and is gentle on sensitive skin.

Are these shorts suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, the natural fibers of organic merino wool and silk are known for their softness and hypoallergenic properties, making them excellent for children with sensitive skin.

How do I choose the right size?

Refer to the size chart provided by DILLING, typically based on the child's age and measurements. The elasticated waist and adjustable cords offer some flexibility within the chosen size.

Can these shorts be worn year-round?

Yes, the natural properties of merino wool and silk make them suitable for all seasons. They provide warmth in cooler weather and remain breathable and comfortable in warmer conditions.

What is the main benefit of the loose-fitting design?

The loose-fitting design ensures maximum freedom of movement for children, allowing them to play, run, and explore without any restriction from their clothing.

How durable is this material for active kids?

While the natural blend is comfortable and breathable, it is a delicate material. For very rough play, it's advisable to be mindful of abrasive surfaces to maintain the fabric's integrity. They are best suited for everyday active play and sleep.

Troubleshooting

Garment loses shape after washing.

Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and a delicate wash cycle. Lay flat to dry and reshape while damp, avoiding heat and direct sunlight.

Fabric feels less soft than before.

Avoid using fabric softeners, as they can coat the natural fibers. Re-wash with a wool-specific detergent and air dry.

Minor pilling or snagging.

Gently remove any pills with a fabric shaver designed for delicate materials. Be cautious of rough surfaces during wear to prevent future snags.
