Ruskovilla Organic Merino Wool Children's Long Johns ( pants only )

Ruskovilla
$46.95 - $56.95
RU1410

These soft and durable organic merino wool long johns for toddlers and children are lightweight and very warm.  These long johns are great for layering underneath winter outerwear as a warm base layer and are also comfy on their own for indoor play.  Merino wool is breathable, soft and pleasant next to the skin, absorbs moisture without feeling damp, retains warmth very well, and does not require frequent laundering. 

Ruskovilla has been manufacturing environmentally friendly textiles in Finland since 1981.    They are deeply committed to quality during every phase of production;  from the raw materials to the finished product, the company takes people and environment into consideration. 

The wool is ethically produced organic merino wool from Argentina and Uruguay and is produced according to the criteria of IVN (Internationaler Verband der Naturtextilwirtschaft e.V.). The yarn is spun by a German spinnery, and it is certified by IMO (Institute for Marketecology).  The spinnery uses as few synthetic chemicals as possible for dying woollen yarn. The dying process takes place in closed system with the use of reactive dyes causing the fibres to react completly with the dye and preventing the dyes from running. Therefore, reactive dyes are safer option for garments that are in direct contact with the skin. No chrome dyes or heavy metal salts are used in the organic production process. Any harmless auxiliary products that are indispensible in the dyeing process are flushed out in the post-dyeing rinsing process. 

Made in Finland.

I give it 2 stars for the quality of the material - it’s unparalleled. However, the design of the waistband is terrible. After one wear, I need a seamstress to address the unsecured elastic that has thread out of the band from a hole that can’t be threaded back in. It won’t hold up. The design is not typical - I’ve never seen anything alike. But in order for the waistband to be sustainable, a new design is recommended.

Bought the ruskovilla as a set for Pajamas and base layer for winter. These are thick and I do like the adjustable waist as we hope to pass these down as each kid out grows. Our son is a little on the husky side and the waist is a little snug but the elastic is slim so doesn’t bother him. We also sized up for longer wear and they are a little long but not overly big. Bought the 140 for a 70pound 52 inch tall 7yr old, 130 for a 47pound tall 5yr old.

My 3 year-old son calls these his "comfy pants" and they certainly are! I would say that the pants run small. When they arrive they are super big, but after one wash they seem to shrink two sizes (both around and length). I have never had issues with shrinkage with other Ruskovilla products (we have the adult wool leggings and adult outdoor shirt which are true to size and don't shrink). I believe these are made of a thicker material than those and may be more prone to shrinkage. For reference my just-turned 3 year-old who is on the small size has fits very snuggly into the 3-4 yr size. These are his go-to pants for winter days. He plays rough outside and we have never had any holes.
