Halfen
Overall made of boiled wool
The walk overall made from 100% organic new wool by Halfen is a must for the transitional period and winter. And the great thing is that these overalls have a zipper. Your baby will stay protected from the cold and wind in the stroller or in the carrier, as the hat's hood offers additional protection. You can easily close the hand and feet openings by folding them down so that your baby stays safe from the cold. Despite the hood, you still need a hat that fits snugly.
These overalls are great for children who are starting to crawl or can already walk, as this material is much more robust than wool fleece.
Halfen's overalls are significantly thicker than Disana's, which makes them a little warmer and more robust overall. For small children up to size 68, we recommend the Disana boiled wool suit, as the thick boiled wool is too bulky here.
Material: 100% organic new wool
Colours: olive, chestnut, curry, walnut
Sizes: 74/80, 86/92, and 98/104. These overalls have a bigger fit and comparable products by other brands.
Made in Germany!
Wool
Our recommendation to always read the care instructions in the respective garments, the special composition of the manufacturer and the origin of the materials often require individual care.
Merino wool and virgin wool
Manufacturers always recommend hand washing, cold and without temperature fluctuations, no wringing and rubbing of the garment. Basically, you should use a laundry bag for your wool laundry, this reduces the friction on the washing machine drum and thus the risk of felting. Textiles made of wool do not get dirty as quickly as cotton textiles, it is usually sufficient to air the textiles and only wash them when they are really dirty.
Always wash wool on the wool cycle and make sure the setting uses cold water, not 30 degrees. Basically, the older the washing machine is, the worse the wool program is, which can lead to problems. Also pay attention to the spin speed, it should be greatly reduced and no final spin should be set.
You should also use a high-quality, organic wool detergent and not a conventional one. Dry your woolen laundry lying on a towel and carefully pull it into shape after washing. Please never let your woolen clothes dry in the blazing sun, in the tumble dryer or on the radiator.
With our Joha and FUB products, we have had good experiences washing them at 30 degrees on a wool cycle. (but we do not assume any guarantee)
boiled wool
Consists of organic new wool, this wool should be gently cleaned. Wool has a high proportion of lanolin (wool fat). This wool fat gives boiled wool items their easy-care and dirt-repellent properties. In the case of light soiling, it is usually sufficient to shake out or brush out the boiled wool garments; the miracle brush is suitable here. Unpleasant odors will disappear if you hang your clothes out in the fresh air overnight.
For larger soiling, the manufacturer recommends washing the clothing inside out by hand. Virgin wool must not be wrung out and dried in the dryer.
Here, too, we as the BabyBox team have had good experiences with the cold wool washing program and clean our boiled wool parts in this way, of course we cannot guarantee this, as the manufacturer recommends hand washing.
Briefly summarized:
- Sort laundry by colour, temperature and material
- Heavy-duty detergents and color detergents are sufficient as standard detergents
