What to know before you switch to bamboo clothing

Short answer: Start with underwear and socks. Those are the categories where the material makes the most difference, and where you notice the change within a week.

Start from the inside

Underwear and socks sit directly against the skin for the most hours. That is where the change of material is felt most clearly. See bamboo underwear for men.

Change one category at a time

That way you can actually feel the difference. If you change everything at once, you do not know what worked. See all bamboo socks for men.

The washing has to change

No fabric softener and 40 degrees. Without that you do not get what you paid for. See washing and care.

Try one first

Buy one piece of a style before you buy five. See bamboo briefs.

Expect it to get softer

The first washes make the fabric softer than it was when new. See bamboo underwear for women.
