Boody versus Bamboo Basics

Short answer: Boody is Australian and cut close. Bamboo Basics is Dutch with a slightly calmer cut and more multipack options. Both are built on bamboo viscose.

Cut and fit

Boody sits closest and is intended as a layer that lies like a second skin. Bamboo Basics has a little more room and is more neutral in shape. The difference is clearest in underwear.

Range and packs

Bamboo Basics is often sold in two and three packs, which lowers the price per piece. Boody is typically sold singly. See Bamboo Basics.

How to choose

If you are filling the drawer, multipacks are the most practical. If you want one layer that sits very close, Boody is cut for that. See Boody and bamboo underwear for women.
