FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?
This jacket is ideal for transitional weather. For very cold winter conditions, it serves best as an insulating mid-layer worn under a heavier, waterproof outer jacket.
How does merino wool keep my child comfortable?
Merino wool is naturally breathable and has excellent temperature-regulating properties. It wicks away moisture from the skin, keeping your child dry and comfortable, and insulates even when damp.
Can I put this jacket in the dryer?
No, it is not recommended to tumble dry merino wool. High heat can cause shrinkage and damage the fibers. Always lay flat to dry.
How often should I wash this jacket?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant. Washing only when necessary helps prolong the life of the garment. Airing it out between wears is often sufficient.
What does 'terry' mean in the product description?
Terry refers to the knit construction of the fabric. In this case, it has a smooth outer surface and a soft, looped or fuzzy interior, providing extra warmth and comfort.
Is the purple color colorfast?
DILLING uses high-quality dyes for its organic merino wool. However, like all dyed fabrics, it's best to wash with like colors to maintain color vibrancy.
Troubleshooting
Jacket feels stiff after washing.
Ensure you used a wool-specific detergent and a low-temperature wash cycle. Reshape the jacket while damp and lay flat to dry.
Pilling on the interior terry.
Some pilling is natural with merino wool terry. Gentle washing and avoiding harsh friction can minimize this. A fabric shaver can be used carefully if needed.
Jacket lost its shape.
Reshape the garment while wet after washing and lay it flat to dry. Avoid stretching or wringing the fabric.
Zipper is difficult to move.
Check for any fabric caught in the zipper. Gently work the zipper up and down. Apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil lead) or wax to the zipper teeth if it continues to be stiff.
