Children's slip-on pants virgin wool fleece

Whether they are kicking, crawling or crawling, whether they are taking their first steps or adventurously jumping through the world: Slip-on pants should fit children as comfortably and snugly as a second skin. Slip them on, feel good and off you go: These children's slip-on trousers have everything they need to adapt to a child's urge to move both outdoors and indoors. Pure merino wool from certified organic animal husbandry is processed into a hard-wearing fleece with a typical brushed surface. Already naturally very soft and pleasantly warming, the crimped fibers of merino wool trap heat-insulating air even more effectively when roughened. The natural temperature-balancing and climate-regulating effect of merino wool is enhanced, as is its fine softness. The extremely wide waistband ensures a snug fit and also increases the feel-good factor: it hugs your child's tummy softly and elastically and gives them complete freedom of movement without pinching, chafing or even constricting. The fine rib cuffs on the trouser legs are also wide enough to accommodate even a small growth spurt.

Engel is located at the foot of the Swabian Jura and has been focusing on natural textiles in an exemplary and consistent manner for 35 years now. In addition to cotton from controlled organic cultivation (kbA), Engel processes pure merino virgin wool from controlled organic animal husbandry (kbT) as well as merino virgin wool (kbT) in combination with silk. All buttons are made from renewable raw materials. For dyeing the wool textiles, Engel uses only reactive dyes that bond particularly stably with the fiber and are characterized by high color fastness.

Two basic properties make merino wool such a valuable material for children's clothing and home textiles.
1. Their outstanding temperature-balancing effect:
Merino sheep provide a distinctly soft, fine wool, to which the animals owe their much-vaunted resilience. Not even the sometimes extreme temperature differences of their natural habitat can harm merino sheep: In cold weather, their slightly crimped wool fibers are particularly effective at storing natural body heat; in hot weather, the fibers absorb a lot of body moisture and wick it away to the environment with a cooling effect. Last but not least, merino wool is particularly skin-friendly thanks to its very fine wool fibers; even wool-sensitive people feel comfortable in it.
2. Their natural ease of care:
Children's textiles not only have to be able to withstand a lot, they also have to be easy to care for. Pure new wool fibers offer this enormous advantage: they have a rough surface and a natural content of wool fat (lanolin). This is why virgin wool is self-cleaning, as it were - dirt particles can only adhere to the rough fiber surface with difficulty. So it is often enough to air the garment and brush out the dried dirt.
