I move around a lot for my job and so usually end up eating all alone in cafes. I like to take a book or magazine with me to make me feel less alone. The other day, I was in RICHMOND TX where I ate at Acapulco Mexican Restraunt and I read a really interesting piece on bamboo clothes. I did not know you are able to make clothes out of bamboo.

Bamboo has some amazing qualities. I found out bamboo clothing is softer than regular cotton. Apparently it is antibacterial and good for you if you suffer from allergies. That is a fantastic quality to have in clothes. Bamboo clothing is very absorbent so it is a great choice for gym gear or also as bamboo towels. I was interested by these claims so I had to find out if this was really the case. I looked online and purchased a couple basic items of clothing.

I have to admit I was extremely impressed with the quality. The fabric really is soft, not unlike silk. It was almost dry as soon as I took it out of the washing machine which I thought was amazing. Another thing I noticed is that it did not particularly need ironing. I do not know if all bamboo clothing is like that but it is a quality I look for as I hate doing ironing.

You can find the latest bamboo clothes here or there are plenty of organic apparel stores where you can get organic cotton clothes as well bamboo linen.

After a little more research I discovered some more interesting facts to do with bamboo. It is a product which is organic. It grows extremely fast which means it does not need any fertilisers and they do not require pesticides either. Plus bamboo requires little water during the growing period which means they can survive droughts.

I do my best to make eco-friendly choices whenever I go shopping. Bamboo is organic, renewable, and sustainable so for me it is the number one choice for clothes and other products such as robes, underwear, throws, and baby clothes.
