Clothes for the cleaning day

Short answer: Cleaning brings sweat and movement in every direction. Soft, stretchy clothes that take many washes are what get put on.

The movement

You bend, stretch and kneel. Stretch in the fabric matters more than the cut. See bamboo sweatpants for women.

The sweat

Indoor work brings sweat quickly. A layer that moves the moisture away makes it more comfortable. See bamboo t-shirt for women.

Many washes

Work clothes for the home are washed often and have to take it. See the washing guide.

Stains

Cleaning products can bleach coloured clothes. Use the pieces that are nearly worn out anyway.

Reusing worn out clothes

Tops that have become too worn for outdoor use are perfect here.

For men

See the corresponding pieces in bamboo t-shirts for men.

Socks

If you go about in socks indoors all day, the sole of the bare sock wears. Use the pairs that are nearly worn out anyway. See all bamboo socks for women.
