Bamboo Clothing for the Office – Comfort All Day Long

Short answer: At the office you sit still for eight or nine hours in the same air, and that is where the material decides whether the day feels long. Bamboo viscose moves moisture away from the skin, creases less than cotton and does not smell after a day in a warm chair. Start under the shirt and finish with the socks.

Eight hours in the same chair

The problem at the office is not heat but still air and a seat that does not breathe. The back and the lower back are the two places where moisture gathers, and in cotton it stays in the fabric all day. Bamboo viscose takes the moisture into the fibre and releases it into the air again, so the shirt stays dry against the back. The fabric is also smooth, which means less friction against the chair back and fewer of the wear marks that otherwise show up first.

The layer under the shirt

What sits underneath decides the rest. A thin layer under the shirt takes up the moisture before it reaches the outer layer, which is why a shirt can last a whole day instead of turning clammy by lunchtime. For men, a bamboo tank top for men is the obvious choice under a shirt, because it is sleeveless and does not show at the collar. Underwear does the same lower down, and the range sits under bamboo underwear for men and bamboo underwear for women.

Shirts that do not need ironing

Bamboo viscose drapes heavier than cotton and smooths itself out while the garment hangs. In practice that means a shirt can be taken straight off the hanger and worn, and that it looks as tidy after a day in a chair as it did in the morning. The men's styles sit under bamboo shirt for men and the women's under bamboo shirts for women. Hang the shirt up straight after washing, and you avoid the iron entirely.

For the warmer days

If no shirt is required, a thin t-shirt is the best choice for an office with too much sun through the windows. The fabric drapes softly and does not cling to the skin the way a cotton tee does once it turns damp. The styles sit under bamboo t-shirt for women. Fold the t-shirt rather than hanging it, and the shoulder will not pull out of shape.

The socks get forgotten

Eight hours in a closed shoe under a desk is the place on the body where heat and moisture gather most, and it is also where you notice it first when the shoes come off in the evening. A bamboo sock keeps the foot drier than a cotton one and has a softer cuff that does not cut into the calf. The range sits under bamboo socks for women and bamboo socks for men. It is the cheapest of all the changes and the one you notice fastest.
