Bamboo joggers for men and how to avoid bagging at the knee

Short answer: Bagging at the knee is caused by heat, not by wear. The dryer on high heat draws the fibres in unevenly, and the knee is the place where the fabric is stretched most.

Why the knee bags

When you sit down, the fabric is stretched across the knee. If it is then heated in the dryer, the shape sets. See the range in bamboo joggers for men.

How to avoid it

Wash at 40 degrees, dry on low heat or hang them up. That is the whole solution, and it costs nothing.

The fabric matters too

A quality with a little elastane springs back into shape. Pure viscose without stretch does not do it to the same degree.

The rest of the set

The top is in bamboo sweatshirt for men, and whole sets are in bamboo tracksuits for men.

Frequently asked questions

Why do my joggers bag at the knee?

Because heat has set the stretched shape. Dry them on low heat and it does not happen.

Can bagging be corrected?

Partly. A wash at 40 degrees and air drying usually pulls most of it back.

Does elastane help against bagging?

Yes. Elastane makes the fabric spring back, where pure viscose stays where it was stretched.
