Why Bamboo?

Bamboo-liscious! Bamboo is one of the fastest growing “grasses” in the world, and needs no pesticides and little water. We love bamboo because of its soft feel and drape, but you might love it because it is hypoallergenic, absorbent, fast drying, and naturally anti-bacterial (this means less washing, and less…um…smelling). Bamboo is also thermally regulating, meaning (like cashmere), it keeps you warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. It needs no ironing; just hang your clothing and the wrinkles fall out. While bamboo does need caustic chemicals to take it from plants to pants, our bamboo fabric is created in a closed-loop system meaning less toxic chemicals go out into the environment.
