FAQs
Are these boxer shorts suitable for sensitive skin?
Yes, they are made from 100% organic merino wool, which is known for its softness and breathability, making it excellent for sensitive skin and reducing irritation.
How do I wash my merino wool boxer shorts?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle with a wool detergent at a maximum of 30°C (86°F). Do not use fabric softener and do not tumble dry. Lay flat to air dry.
Can these be worn year-round?
Absolutely. Merino wool naturally regulates temperature, keeping children warm in cooler weather and cool in warmer weather, making them suitable for all seasons.
Why is merino wool better than regular wool?
Merino wool fibers are much finer and softer than traditional wool, meaning they are less likely to cause itching or prickling. They also have superior moisture-wicking and breathability properties.
How often should I wash these boxer shorts?
Merino wool has natural odor-resistant properties. You may find you can wear them multiple times between washes, depending on activity levels. Always check if they appear dirty or smell before washing.
What does 'flat stitching' mean?
Flat stitching refers to a sewing technique where the seams lie flat against the fabric. This prevents rubbing and chafing, enhancing comfort, especially for active wear or sensitive skin.
Can I use bleach on these boxer shorts?
No, you should never use bleach on merino wool items as it can damage the fibers.
Troubleshooting
Boxer shorts feel scratchy after washing.
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and avoiding fabric softeners. Wash on a delicate cycle at a low temperature. Air drying flat will help maintain softness.
Waistband seems loose.
Merino wool can relax slightly over time. Ensure the waistband was not stretched excessively during washing or drying. Lay flat to dry and avoid harsh treatments.
Item has shrunk.
This can happen if the wool was exposed to high heat during washing or drying. Always follow the 30°C (86°F) maximum wash temperature and air dry flat. Avoid tumble drying at all costs.
