Dog Walks and Everyday Outings – The Transitional Wardrobe

Short answer: Good transitional clothing should be something you can put on without thinking and that works at both eight and eighteen degrees. Bamboo clothing is ideal for dog walks and everyday outings, because it regulates temperature so you neither sweat on the way out nor freeze on the way home.

What Is Transitional Clothing, Really?

Transitional clothing is the wardrobe for the months between the winter coat and the summer dress: layers that are easy to take off and put back on. The problem is that the weather changes while you are out. This is where bamboo viscose helps, because the fibres both insulate lightly and move moisture away, so your body keeps an even temperature.

The Easy Uniform for Dog Walking

A soft bamboo hoodie for men or one of our bamboo hoodies for women over a T-shirt is the perfect middle ground. Underneath, a pair of bamboo sweatpants gives you freedom of movement without looking like you just got out of bed.

The Base Layer on Cold Mornings

On chilly morning walks, a thin bamboo undershirt works wonders under your top. It keeps you warm without bunching up and can stay on all day. Read more in the guide to the bamboo undershirt as a base layer.

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the best clothes for walking the dog in transitional weather?

Layers of breathable material: a T-shirt or undershirt, a hoodie and soft trousers in bamboo viscose. That way you can adjust the warmth along the way.

Why bamboo rather than ordinary cotton?

Bamboo viscose moves moisture away and regulates temperature better, so your back does not get clammy when the walk turns out longer than planned.

Can I use the same clothes indoors and outdoors?

Yes, that is the whole point. Bamboo hoodies and sweatpants work as comfy clothes at home and still look presentable on the street.
