Frequently Asked Questions

Materials & Comfort

What is the difference between merino wool and regular wool?

Merino wool has finer, softer fibres than many regular wools. It is naturally breathable and helps manage moisture, helping little ones stay comfortable through changing temperatures.

What does “superfine merino wool” mean?

We chose 18.5-micron superfine merino wool for its exceptionally soft feel. Fine fibres are gentler against delicate skin, while still giving the natural comfort and breathability merino is loved for.

What is TOG?

TOG measures how much warmth a sleeping bag provides: the higher the number, the warmer it is. Instead of a TOG rating, we recommend Everyday Hug for room temperatures between 17–24°C. Always adjust the layers underneath to the room temperature and check your little one for comfort.

What materials do you use?

Everyday Hug is made with two natural layers: 100% superfine Australian merino wool inside and 100% organic cotton outside.

Are the materials certified?

Our sleeping bags are made by production partners who hold Woolmark, OEKO-TEX® and GOTS certifications. We only work with factories that meet these standards for material quality and safety.

Orders & Payment

What payment methods do you accept?

We accept major credit cards and iDEAL, along with other secure payment methods available at checkout.

Will I receive an order confirmation?

Yes. Once your order is placed, you will receive a confirmation email with the details of your purchase.

Product & Sizing

Do the sleep sleeping bag run true to size?

Our sleepwear is slightly more spacious than regular clothing to allow for comfort while sleeping. We recommend choosing your child’s usual size.

What materials are used in your products?

Our sleep bags are made from natural fibres only. 
100% superfine merino wool and 100% organic cotton.

Where are your products made?

Our products are made in India at carefully selected factories that hold certified organic and wool production certifications. We work only with trusted partners who meet high standards for safety, quality, and responsible production.

What temperatures is the sleeping bag suitable for?

Suitable for room temperatures between 17–24°C.

These temperature ranges are intended as a general guide. Every baby is different, and comfort can vary depending on what is worn underneath the sleeping bag.

For cooler nights, layering a long-sleeve bodysuit or sleepwear underneath can help create a warmer and more comfortable sleep environment. Merino wool naturally helps regulate body temperature, keeping babies warm when it is cool while remaining breathable when temperatures rise.

What should babies wear under the sleep bag?

Depending on the room temperature, babies can wear a short or long-sleeve bodysuit underneath. Layering helps adjust warmth while keeping your baby comfortable.

Care Instructions

How should I wash merino wool?

Merino wool is naturally durable but should be treated gently. We recommend washing on a wool or delicate cycle using a mild wool detergent.

You can find more detailed care instructions on our Care & Mend page.

Can the sleep bag be machine washed?

Yes. Wash on a wool cycle at 30°C or below using a wool-specific detergent. Gentle washing helps maintain the softness and longevity of the merino fibres.

Can they be tumble dried?

No. We recommend laying the garment flat to dry in the shade. Avoid tumble drying, as heat can damage natural wool fibres.
