Clothing with bamboo viscose has the following benefits
MOISTURE-ABSORBING AND MOISTURE-WICKING
Bamboo textiles are highly absorbent and can absorb up to three times their own weight in moisture. This means that if the clothing weighs 1 kg, it can absorb 3 kg of moisture. It is this absorption capability that transports sweat away from the skin.
QUICK-DRYING
Additionally, bamboo is a quick-drying fiber. These properties are particularly beneficial for socks and underwear, but they are also advantageous in activewear.
ODOR FREE
Because the bamboo viscose is effective at absorbing moisture and dries quickly, many people experience reduced odors when using "bamboo clothing".
TEMPERATURE REGULATING
Bamboo fibers have a highly porous structure that naturally creates air pockets between the fibers. These air pockets provide insulation and temperature-regulating effects, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.
GENTLE ON SENSITIVE SKIN
Bamboo fibers are exceptionally soft due to their manufacturing process (learn more here), making them non-irritating to the skin. Bamboo fibers are created similarly to viscose, designed to be as soft as silk, which bamboo certainly achieves. You can read more about bamboo fiber production here.
AVOID WRINKLED CLOTHES
With clothes made with bamboo viscose, you avoid them becoming brittle and creasing quickly over time. This is because the bamboo viscose fibers remain soft wash after wash.
STILL SOFT WASH AFTER WASH
Bamboo fibers are smooth and round, preventing them from sticking out or becoming tangled, which helps bamboo textiles remain soft even after many washes.
BENEFICIAL FOR DIABETIC FEET
Diabetics often have sensitive skin, making seamless socks and those without tight elastic in the cuffs particularly beneficial. Additionally, the moisture-wicking and temperature-regulating properties help protect sensitive feet. All our socks are flat-stitched at the toes.
