Bamboo clothing in an open-plan office where the temperature swings
Short answer: In an open-plan office it is often too cold in the morning and too warm in the afternoon. Two thin layers you can take on and off solve that better than one thick jumper.
Two layers rather than one
A thin long-sleeved top under a shirt or a cardigan gives you something to regulate with. See bamboo long-sleeved t-shirt for women.
The vest
A layer innermost keeps the shirt dry when the office gets warm. See bamboo vest for men.
Sweat through the shirt
If sweat coming through the shirt is a problem, it is the base layer that solves it. See sweat and white shirts.
Socks under the desk
Feet get warm quickly in closed shoes when you sit still. See bamboo socks for men.
In summer
Air conditioning makes the morning cold and the afternoon warm. See the office in summer.
For women
A thin top under a cardigan does the same job. See bamboo tops for women.

Frequently asked questions
Why does the temperature swing so much?
Because the system regulates by the average, not by the individual desk.
What is the easiest solution?
Two thin layers you can take on and off during the day.
Does a vest help against sweat marks?
Yes. It takes up the moisture before it reaches the shirt fabric.
