The organic Merino wool is certified as organic by IMO to GOTS standards.
The use of pesticides both on the meadows and the animal is inadmissible. The animals procreate in a natural way and any kind of change on the animal such as trimming the tail or mulesing are forbidden. In short – the sheep should live a happy life!
The certified organic origin of the wool ensures that it has been produced without noxious substances like pesticides and herbicides.
Wool (and thus Merino wool) has many benefits when worn next to the skin and about the body. Find out more about the properties of wool here in our blog.
The addition of silk results in a fabric that is luxuriousy silky to the touch. Silk is a natural temperature regulator, helping the body retain heat in cold weather and excess heat is expelled in warm weather. Therefore your body maintains a natural, comfortable temperature.
Silk is hypoallergenic; it does not attract dust mites and is a natural fungal repellent.
With it's extremely smooth and soft texture silk proves to be beneficial for those with sensitive skin conditions (e.g. Eczema). Silk does not conduct static electricity.
Organic Merino wool combined with the gentle, skin-friendly properties of silk makes the ultimate fabric for the well-being of the skin and body.
Wool is naturally self-cleaning, the outer surfaces of the fibre pushing dirt down and off itself. It's naturally anti-bacterial and neutralises odours too. Silk also releases dirt easily
Wash on a 30oc wool cycle in the washing machine. Use a liquid wool shampoo or detergent as sold in our fabric care category here.
"In the summer as Licht sleep shirt and under jumpers."
This was washed... washed fine
This was worn by... My son
Sizing: A little generous
I'd recommend this to a friend.
"We bought this as a base layer to use under pyjamas as our place can get cold at night. That has worked really well and I can see us using it in spring when it gets too warm for the long sleeve woolly bodies. The sizing is super generous, but doesn't feel baggy. We have size 1-2 years and at 16 months, with fabric nappies, there's still lots of room without using the extenders. I think this will last us a long time!"
This was washed... machine washed fine on the wool setting
This was worn by... Rei, from 14 months onwards
"It’s lovey. Because the size is for 1-2 years it will inevitably be big for a period. The benefit being you get great longevity. The drawback is that in the early months of use it won’t be as snug as you’d ideally want for a base layer. Nonetheless I love these."
This was washed... I have only hand washed them. And have had no issues.
Sizing: Feels true to size
"Fantastic underlayers from newborn to potty training age, last ages because of the second set of poppers. I have them in pink, blue and natural, colours lasted well. My daughter is wearing big brother's hand-me-dows."
This was washed... I usually wash on a gentle setting but they've survived a couple of hotter washes, both by mistake and after a nappy disaster.
This was worn by... My son (now two and a half) until he potty trained, and now my six month daughter
"For now its a bit big for my boy, but still keeps him warm already."
This was worn by... My sweet toddler
"Soft and keep warm. Long lasting body, my son has been wearing it since 6 months. The extendible buttons are very useful for clothe nappies."
This was washed... had to be careful
