Washing & Care

Caring for merino is easy, but important to get right!

Washing

  • Machine or hand wash at 40°C max (low spin speed for blankets)
  • Use a wool-approved liquid detergent
  • Close any zips before washing
  • Turn the garment inside out to reduce pilling
  • Place in a delicates wash bag if you have one

    Avoid using laundry powder, soaking, bleaching, wringing, dry cleaning, or stain removers, as these practices can accelerate the biodegradation of Merino, causing holes.

Drying

We recommend air-drying merino. Avoid using a tumble dryer, as it can reduce the fabric's soft feel and may cause shrinkage.

Additionally, keep it out of direct sunlight to prevent any fading or discolouration.

Storing

Storing merino correctly is important to keep it safe from moths, mould, dust, and general wear and tear. Vacuum closets/drawers regularly and store with Cedar Moth Balls.

Stain removal

Never soak or bleach merino or use stain removal sprays- even if you develop a stain.

To remove stains on merino, carefully dab the area with a cloth covered in a wool-approved detergent. Follow up by washing your merino as usual and the stain should come out.

Odour removal

Merino wool's moisture-wicking properties makes it naturally odour-resistant.

Odours often vanish on their own, but if needed, air out by hanging, lay flat on a towel to rest, or hang in a steamy bathroom to refresh. The less your merino item is washed the longer it will last.

ABOUT THE FABRIC

Merino sheep produce the finest and softest wool in the world, its benefits are so great that no other fibre- natural or man-made, can match it.

We use extra fine 100% merino wool, it's nearly four times finer than the average human hair. This means it's incredibly soft against the skin and never itchy. Merino is inherently breathable and temperature regulating, keeping babies warm in cold temperatures and cooler in warm temperatures, this makes it a great year-round daily choice as well as being perfect for sleeping in. It also wicks excess moisture away from the skin, is hypoallergenic, and odour resistant, keeping skin comfortable and dry day and night. Merino wool is also an environmentally responsible choice, being a natural, renewable, and biodegradable fibre.

Naturally Pure

Woolmark and OEKO-TEX approved

All of our merino meets the strict Woolmark standards of exacting quality, traceability and eco-friendly production. It also meets the OEKO-TEX 100 Standard, designed to ensure textile products are free from harmful substances.

Super soft Merino

Naturally good for everyday comfort

Soft, warm and kind on the skin. Never itchy, our extra fine merino wool fabric keeps kids comfy all year round. It’s hypoallergenic, wicks away moisture and regulates their temperature. And it’s durable, making it perfect for everyday basics.

Extra Fine

18.5 micron fibres for incredible softness

Not all merino is created equal. The wool fibres in our all-natural merino fabrics are categorised as Extra Fine, with a diameter of 18.5 microns or less in our Basics range and 19.5 microns or less in our heavier weight outerwear.

Easy Care

Conveniently machine washable

Our Woolmark certified merino is approved for machine washing, meeting their strict performance standards for fibre content, colour fastness to light and liquid, durability, and laundry testing.

Practical Basics

Clothing made for busy days

Parenting small children has enough complications. We look for ways to make our clothing practical, durable and easy for kids with features like double ended zips, reinforced domes, or built-in mittens.

Babu Sleeping Bag Temperature Guide

The ideal sleeping environment is around 18–22°C, which is where babies sleep most comfortably. Our 3-season merino sleeping bag is designed to keep your baby comfortable through autumn, winter, and spring, and even on mild summer nights. While the “3 season” label is a helpful guide, the most important factor is your baby’s room temperature.

Use the table below to see our recommended layers for different temperatures. Dressing your baby in light, adjustable layers allows you to easily add or remove clothing as needed, keeping them cozy without overheating.

Room Temperature Recommended Layers
16–18°C (Cool) Merino sleeping bag + long sleeve bodysuit + long sleeve onesie or pyjamas
18–20°C (Mild) Merino sleeping bag + long sleeve bodysuit + footed leggings
20–22°C (Comfortable) Merino sleeping bag + long sleeve bodysuit
22–24°C (Warm) Merino sleeping bag + singlet bodysuit or light cotton layer
