Boody and what characterises the brand

Short answer: Boody is an Australian brand that works almost entirely with bamboo viscose. The range is built around plain coloured basics in seamless and soft cuts that return year after year.

Bamboo as the starting point

Where other brands have bamboo as a line next to cotton, it is Boody's main material across the whole range. This means the quality is consistent across categories, from briefs to socks. If you buy one piece and like the fabric, you pretty much know how the rest of the range feels. See Boody.

An Australian brand

Boody comes from Australia and has built its range around one material from the start. That gives a brand with a clear focus, where the point is not to have a bit of everything, but to make the same basics in the same soft fabric. For you as a customer it makes the choice simpler.

Seamless cuts

A large part of the range is knitted seamless. This means fewer edges that can rub or show under clothing. Under close fitting trousers and thin dresses in particular, a sewn edge can be easy to see, and a seamless piece is easier to forget once it is on. See bamboo underwear for women.

How seamless feels

Seamless items are knitted in the round, so the fabric follows the body without the same transitions as sewn pieces. Many find it smoother and less noticeable through the day. The fabric stretches in several directions, so the fit may feel different from what you are used to, even in your usual size.

Basics rather than seasons

The colours are neutral, and the styles are largely the same year after year. That makes it easy to top up with a single piece without it looking different from the rest of the drawer. You do not need to buy everything at once, but can replace what wears out as it happens.

Plain and easy to combine

Because the range sticks to calm, plain coloured items, the pieces match across categories. A top, briefs and a pair of socks from different orders look as if they belong together. That is practical if you want a simple drawer where you do not have to think about what goes with what in the morning.

Sizes for women and men

Boody has its own size guides for women and men, and since seamless items stretch differently from sewn ones, it is wise to check the measurements rather than go by habit. See size guide Boody women and size guide Boody men. Measure yourself and compare with the chart before you order.

Wash seamless items gently

Seamless circular knitted items should not be wrung while wet, because the knit can twist out of shape. Wash at 40 degrees without fabric softener, press the water out gently, and lay or hang the piece to dry in its natural shape. Avoid high heat in the dryer. Read more under washing and care.

Who Boody suits

Boody suits you if you want bamboo throughout your drawer and prefer simple, plain basics over patterns and seasonal colours. If seamless cuts are new to you, it can be a good idea to start with a single piece and feel how the fit works in everyday life before you buy more.
