Bamboo Against Sweat – All Over the Body

Short answer: Bamboo clothing does not remove sweat, it moves it: bamboo viscose carries moisture away from your skin and lets it evaporate, so you feel dry from your feet to the back of your neck. At the same time it reduces odour, because the bacteria lose their damp environment.

Your feet: where most people start

Sweaty feet in closed shoes are the classic problem, and this is where bamboo socks make the biggest difference. Read the full explanation in the post about bamboo socks for sweaty feet.

Upper body: goodbye to the clammy back

A bamboo undershirt under your shirt catches the sweat before it reaches the shirt fabric, and a bamboo T-shirt feels dry for longer than cotton. Women will find matching undershirts in the same soft quality.

Lower body and night time

Bamboo boxer shorts and briefs keep your crotch dry, and if you sweat at night, bamboo nightwear and bedding can give you noticeably better sleep.

Frequently asked questions

Does bamboo clothing help against sweat all over the body?

Yes, bamboo viscose moves moisture away, whether it is your feet, your back or your groin. The effect is biggest where the clothes sit close to your skin.

Does bamboo clothing stop you sweating?

No, you sweat just as much, but the sweat is moved away from your skin and evaporates, so you feel dry and smell less.

Which bamboo clothing should I choose first against sweat?

Start where the problem is biggest: socks for sweaty feet, an undershirt for a sweaty back or boxer shorts for moisture in the crotch.
