FAQs

What makes the merino wool and silk blend special?

The blend combines merino wool's natural temperature regulation and breathability with silk's exceptional softness, creating a fabric that feels luxurious and performs well in various conditions.

Can these leggings be worn as outer layer clothing?

While they are designed as a base layer or sleepwear due to their fine material, they can be worn as leggings under skirts, dresses, or trousers. They are not designed as standalone outerwear.

How do I care for these leggings to ensure they last?

Machine wash on a delicate cycle with a wool-specific detergent at 30°C. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Lay flat to dry and do not tumble dry. Proper care helps maintain the integrity and softness of the natural fibres.

Will the leggings shrink if washed incorrectly?

Washing at temperatures above 30°C or tumble drying can cause shrinkage. Always follow the cold wash, delicate cycle, and flat-dry instructions to prevent this.

Are these leggings suitable for sensitive skin?

The blend of organic merino wool and silk is known for its exceptional softness and is generally well-tolerated by sensitive skin. However, individual sensitivities can vary.

What does 'temperature regulating' mean for these leggings?

It means the fabric naturally adjusts to your body's temperature. It helps keep you warm by trapping body heat in cool conditions and allows heat to escape in warmer conditions, preventing overheating.

Troubleshooting

Leggings feel loose after wearing.

This is a natural characteristic of wool fibres which may stretch slightly with wear. The leggings will contract back to their original shape after washing, following the care instructions.

Skin irritation.

Although made from soft merino wool and silk, if irritation occurs, ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and that the garment has been washed according to the care instructions. Check for any potential allergies to natural fibres.

Reduced warmth or breathability.

Ensure the leggings are clean and free from residues that could impede natural fibre function. Follow the recommended washing and drying procedures.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
