Product Information
Full details
This DILLING Merino Wool Terry Jacket in Purple, size 7-8, is designed for active kids seeking comfort and temperature regulation during transitional weather. Its key benefit is the natural warmth and breathability of 100% organic merino wool. A potential consideration is that while ideal for mid-seasons, it may require additional layers for extreme cold. This jacket features a full zipper, ribbed cuffs and hem for a snug fit, and a soft, fuzzy inner lining.

FAQs
Is this jacket suitable for very cold winter weather?
This jacket is designed as a mid-layer or for transitional weather. For very cold winter conditions, it is recommended to wear it under a thicker, insulated outer jacket.
How do I know if I have the right size?
The size 7-8 is designed for children typically in that age range. Check the garment's measurements against your child's current measurements for the best fit. Ribbed cuffs and hem provide some flexibility.
Can this jacket be worn by boys and girls?
Yes, the jacket has a unisex design and is suitable for all children.
How often should I wash my merino wool jacket?
Merino wool is naturally odor-resistant and doesn't require frequent washing. Airing the jacket out between wears can often suffice. Wash only when visibly dirty or when it loses its freshness, following the care instructions.
What is wool terry quality?
Wool terry quality refers to the fabric's construction, featuring a smooth outer surface and a soft, fuzzy, looped texture on the inside, similar to cotton terry cloth, but made from merino wool.
Does merino wool regulate temperature?
Yes, merino wool is excellent at regulating body temperature. It wicks away moisture when warm and provides insulation when cold, keeping the wearer comfortable in various conditions.
Troubleshooting
Jacket losing shape after washing
Ensure you are using a wool-specific detergent and the correct wool wash cycle on your machine. Always lay flat to dry and avoid wringing or tumble drying.
Merino wool feels itchy
Ensure the garment is 100% merino wool as stated. Organic merino wool is typically very soft; itchiness can sometimes occur if the wool is not from a fine micron count or if combined with other fibers. Hand washing with wool detergent can help soften the fibers.
Zipper is stiff
Gently try to move the zipper up and down. If it remains stiff, apply a small amount of graphite (from a pencil tip) or a specialized zipper lubricant to the zipper teeth.
