Frequently asked questions
What size should I choose for a boiled-wool overall?
A boiled-wool overall should fit comfortably and provide enough room for layering. There should be at least 4–5 cm of room in the upper body at first to ensure it can grow with your child. Our models are designed with adjustable details so they can accompany children for as long as possible.
How can I tell if my baby is too warm in boiled wool?
Regularly feel the back of your baby’s neck. If it feels comfortably warm, the clothing is suitable. If it’s sweaty, one fewer layer of clothing is usually enough.
How do I care for a boiled-wool one-piece?
Usually, it is sufficient to air out and brush the coverall thoroughly after wearing it. Only in cases of heavier soiling do we recommend a gentle wool wash cycle with wool detergent or hand washing. Most importantly: Always wash cold – Do not spin – Do not rub the fabric!!!
Is boiled wool waterproof?
The natural lanolin makes boiled wool water-repellent. Light rain or snow is usually not a problem. However, in prolonged heavy rain, we recommend additional rainwear.
Is a boiled-wool coverall windproof?
Wool fleece reliably protects against the wind while remaining breathable. This creates a comfortable body climate—even in changing weather.
Is a boiled-wool snowsuit enough in a stroller?
In many cases, yes. However, since babies move very little in a stroller, an additional wool blanket or footmuff may be useful on cold days.
Can my baby sleep in a boiled-wool snowsuit?
Yes—for example, during a walk in the stroller. However, the overall should be removed for nighttime sleep indoors.
Is a boiled-wool one-piece better than a snowsuit?
Yes, for most autumn and winter days. Boiled wool naturally regulates body temperature while remaining breathable. A classic snowsuit usually provides more insulation and is particularly suitable for longer periods in the snow or in very low temperatures.
What do you wear under a boiled-wool overall?
Directly against the skin, we recommend a cashmere blend, Micromodal, bamboo, or cotton. On cooler days, add a warm layer made from fine-knit fabric, organic sweat fabric, or cotton fleece. The wool-walk overall reliably protects against wind and cold.
At what temperature should a baby wear a boiled-wool coverall?
Depending on the clothing worn underneath, a boiled-wool overall is suitable for temperatures from around +15 °C to below 0 °C. Using the layering principle, clothing can be flexibly adapted to the weather and season.
Which boiled-wool overall is suitable for newborns?
Even newborns benefit from the temperature-regulating properties of boiled wool. A soft base layer directly against the skin is especially important. The boiled wool coverall provides comfortable warmth without your baby overheating quickly.
What is the difference between the wool-walk cuddly suit and the winter wool-walk overall with teddy lining?
Both models are made of high-quality boiled wool and reliably protect against wind and cold. The difference lies in the insulating inner layer.
TheBoiled Wool Cuddly Suit is ideal for autumn, spring, and mild winter days. Depending on the temperature, an additional layer of clothing can simply be worn underneath.
TheWinter Boiled Wool Overall with Teddy Lining also features a soft teddy lining made of organic cotton. This keeps children even warmer on cold winter days and is especially suitable for longer walks or children who spend a lot of time in a stroller.
