I travel a lot for my job and so usually end up having dinner alone in local restaurants. I often take a good book or magazine with me to prevent boredom. Recently, I was in BLUE BELL PA where I ate at Johnny Cross American & Italian Restaurant and I saw a really interesting article on bamboo clothing. I had no idea you can make clothing out of bamboo.

Bamboo has some amazing qualities. It turns out bamboo fabric is softer than most cotton. They also say it is antibacterial and hypoallergenic. That is a fantastic quality to have in clothes. Bamboo clothing is very absorbent so it is a good possibility for gym clothes or also as bamboo towels. I was fascinated by these claims so I had to find out if this was really the case. I looked online and bought a few pieces of clothing.

I must tell you I was extremely impressed with the quality. The fabric definitely is soft, not unlike silk. It was close to being dry after I removed it from the washing machine which I found to be amazing. The other thing I noticed is that it did not particularly need much ironing. I do not know if all bamboo fabric is like that but it is a quality I look for as I hate ironing.

Find the latest bamboo clothes here or there are many organic clothing stores where you can buy organic cotton clothes as well bamboo sheets.

After a little more research I found some more incredible pieces of information about bamboo. It is generally organic. It grows incredibly quickly which means it does not need fertilisers and they do not need pesticides either. As well as that, bamboo requires only a small amount of water during the time it grows which means they can survive droughts.

I attempt to make environmentally friendly choices whenever I do my shopping. Bamboo is organic, renewable, and sustainable so it is my number one choice for t-shirts and other products such as sheets, blankets, curtains, and baby clothes.

You can find plenty of articles on bamboo here and good information about organic farming and the benefits of organic products.
