Cooling Slip Shorts – The Rescue From Summer Heat

Short answer: Cooling slip shorts in bamboo viscose feel cool against your skin, because the fabric draws both heat and moisture away. That makes them the most comfortable solution to chafing, sweaty thighs on the hottest days of the year.

Can an extra layer really cool you down?

It sounds wrong, but yes. Bare thighs rubbing against each other in the heat get sweaty and irritated and feel burning hot. A thin layer of bamboo viscose moves the sweat away from your skin and lets it evaporate, and the fabric itself feels cool to the touch. The net result is dry, cool thighs instead of clammy ones.

Why bamboo is cooler than cotton

Cotton soaks up sweat and stays wet against your skin, while bamboo viscose moves the moisture on and dries quickly. You can read the full explanation in the guide to bamboo and temperature regulation, and see the range of bamboo slip shorts that are made for exactly these warm days.

Dress cool from the inside out

Pair the slip shorts with a floaty dress from the range of bamboo dresses, so the whole outfit breathes. If you sweat elsewhere too, bamboo underwear for women keeps you dry all the way round.
