What you should know about bamboo clothing in general
Short answer: Bamboo viscose is a cellulose fibre that is soft, drapes heavily and moves moisture away from the skin. It tolerates less heat than cotton and should never have fabric softener.
What it is
A regenerated cellulose fibre made from bamboo pulp. That is why the label says viscose. See facts about bamboo.
What it is good for
Underwear, socks, nightwear and everything that sits close to the skin for many hours. See bamboo underwear for men.
What it is not good for
Stiff, sharp shapes and outer layers in the rain. There, more densely woven fabrics are better. See bamboo T-shirts for men.
How it is cared for
40 degrees, no fabric softener, inside out and low heat when drying. See washing and care.
Where to start
Underwear and socks give the most back per krone. See all bamboo socks for men and bamboo underwear for women.
