Bamboo clothing for people who work outdoors

Short answer: Outdoor work means moving between hard effort and breaks. If you sweat while working and then stand still, a base layer that moves moisture is decisive.

The sweat during breaks

While working the body produces heat. In the break it stops, and damp clothing cools quickly. See bamboo undershirt for men.

Layers you can regulate

You get warm while working and cold when you stop. Layers you can take off as you go are worth more than one thick piece. See bamboo underwear for men.

The legs

A thin layer under your work trousers does more in winter than a thicker top. See bamboo long johns.

The feet

Socks that keep the foot dry prevent both cold and blisters. See all bamboo socks for men.

A change in the car

If you are soaked through by lunch, a change does more than any product. See washing and care.
