Bamboo fiber is the new innovation in textile fibers with the following naturally remarkable characteristics:

Super Soft & Silky

Bamboo fiber is softer than the softest cotton, has a natural sheen to the surface and feels similar to silk or cashmere. But, it has a very high soil release value and is so durable; you can throw it in the washer and drier.

Breathable & Thermal regulating

Bamboo fiber is more breathable, comfortable and thermal regulating than cotton, wool or any other synthetic fiber thereby keeping you cooler, drier and more comfortable all day. Bamboo fiber's unique cross section composed of a matrix with various microscopic gaps allows bamboo apparels to absorb and evaporate perspiration faster than any other fabric. It's nice not to have your clothes sticking to your skin in the hot summer or during exercise!

Anti-bacterial & Odor Free

Unlike other antimicrobial fabrics, which require a chemical treatment (and are often irritating and hyper allergenic to the skin), bamboo fiber fabric and yarn are naturally bacteriostatic and require no harmful chemicals. The fibers contain an agent, “bamboo kun”, that prevents bacteria from cultivating on it thereby inhibiting body odor. The naturally occurring bacteriostatic property also helps prevent cultivation of yeasts, molds and fungus on your clothes and on you! The Japan Textile Inspection Association has tested bamboo fiber fabric finding that even after 50 washes, the bamboo fabric could still eliminate over 70% of bacteria purposely incubated on the fabric.

Hypoallergenic & UV Protection

Bamboo apparel is hypoallergenic. Bamboo’s organic and natural fiber properties make it non-irritating to the skin making it a pleasant alternative for anyone with skin sensitivities or other allergies and dermatitis. Bamboo apparel also protects you from UV rays, naturally.

Environment

Our Bamboo apparel is good for our ecosystems because Bamboo does not require pesticides, insecticides, or fertilizers, and does not involve the use of genetically modified organisms. In contrast, cotton crops are one of the most intensely sprayed crops in the world receiving 3-5 times greater application of pesticides per acre than other crops like corn or soybeans. The chemicals used on the cotton crops are linked to ground and surface water contamination, and even the pollution of drinking water. Did you know that it takes about a pound of chemicals to grow the cotton contained in a cotton t-shirt and pants?

Biodegradable

Further, Bamboo fibers are biodegradable, unlike synthetic textile fibers. Synthetic textile fibers are also made from non-renewable petroleum, and can even emit harmful gasses when incinerated. Almost all polyester/cotton blend fabrics are finished with formaldehyde, a carcinogen.
