Full details

This DILLING Children's Merino Wool Long Sleeved Top in Purple (size 5-6) is designed for active kids seeking comfort and natural temperature regulation.

FAQs

What makes merino wool special for children?

Merino wool is naturally soft, breathable, and thermoregulating, meaning it helps keep children warm when it's cold and cool them down when they are active. It's also hypoallergenic and moisture-wicking.

Is this top suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes, this top is made from 100% organic merino wool that has undergone a special eco-friendly enzyme treatment, making it exceptionally soft and gentle on sensitive skin.

How should I wash this merino wool top?

Machine wash on a wool program at a maximum of 30°C using a wool-specific detergent. Avoid bleach and fabric softeners. Air dry flat.

Can I tumble dry this top?

No, do not tumble dry merino wool. It should be air-dried flat to maintain its shape and integrity.

What does 'enzyme treatment' mean for the wool?

The enzyme treatment softens the merino wool fibers, making them feel exceptionally smooth against the skin while preserving all the natural benefits of wool, such as thermoregulation and breathability.

Is this top available in other sizes?

Yes, this style is available in various sizes. Please check the product listing for other available sizes.

Garment feels itchy after washing

Top has lost its shape

Reshape the garment gently while damp and lay flat to dry. Avoid stretching or wringing the fabric during washing and drying.
