The Benefits of Bamboo
Bamboo is one of the most eco-friendly materials
Bamboo is a product that requires no chemicals in growing and harvesting. It is cut close to the base of the plant and quickly re-grows, some varieties can grow as fast as 1 metre per day, making bamboo a more sustainable product than cotton.
Bamboo is a luxurious, soft, lightweight and comfortable material. Its breathable, temperature regulating and moisture-wicking properties keep your feet cool during the summer and warm during the winter. The material is very suitable for everyday wear, running, sports and outdoor activities.
Bamboo has natural antibacterial properties, it keeps your feet clean and prevents unpleasant odours due to bacterial activity. Bamboo fibers contain no chemicals and its natural softness is gentle on even the most sensitive skin.
The tendency to pilling can be mostly eliminated by careful garment care; wash the socks inside-out, at a low temperature on a gentle cycle. Placing the socks in a garment bag further protects them and ensures they don’t disappear into the abyss of the washing machine.
