I travel quite a lot for my job and so usually end up having dinner all alone in restaurants. I like to take a book or magazine with me to make me feel less alone. Recently, I was in KENNEBUNKPORT ME where I ate at White Barn Inn and I read an interesting article about bamboo clothes. I did not know you can make clothing out of bamboo.

Bamboo has some fantastic qualities. It turns out bamboo clothing is softer than most cotton. They say it is antibacterial and hypo-allergenic. That is a great quality to have in clothing. Bamboo clothing is highly absorbent which means it is a great option for gym clothes or even as bamboo towels. I was intrigued by what I had discovered so I had to find out for myself. I looked online and purchased some pieces of clothing.

I have to admit I was very impressed. The fabric really is soft, kind of like silk. It was close to being dry after I took it from the washing machine which I thought was incredible. The other thing I noticed is that it did not necessarily need much ironing. I am not sure if all bamboo clothing is like that but it is what I look for as I hate ironing.

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

After some more research I found out some more amazing pieces of information to do with bamboo. It is almost always organic. It grows extremely rapidly which means it does not need any fertilisers and they do not use pesticides either. Plus bamboo needs little water during the growth period which means they can survive droughts.

I do my best to make eco friendly choices whenever I do my shopping. Bamboo is organic, renewable, and sustainable making it my number one choice for t-shirts and other products such as robes, blankets, throws, and baby clothes.
