Bamboo T-Shirts and Pique Polo Shirts TEX-BOO® at last! Environmentally friendly clothing that is, simply, better than anything we have had before" Bamboo retains its' amazing natural features in a luxurious high performance fabric unlike any other in the world. TEX-BOO is ultra soft, smooth, luxuriously comfortable, as well as hard wearing and durable. It also has the following natural characteristics that make it quite simply unique. Bamboo Cool: 2-3 Degrees Cooler in warm weather In the heat bamboo is naturally cool to the touch and this property is maintained in its fabric form. It stays 2-3 degrees cooler than other fabrics so, when next to the skin, keeps you comfortable in warmer weather. As a natural fabric, it is also comfortable and warmer in colder weather. When Combined with 'Bamboo Dry' qualities, you have the best possible fabric for most conditions. Bamboo Dry: Moisture 'wicking' action Bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the word, mainly because it has extraordinary water absorbency which helps it to grow fast. In fabric form it retains this unique, remarkable property and it’s 3-4 times more absorbent than cotton. It wicks away moisture from the body which then evaporates, keeping you – naturally – drier and more comfortable. Bamboo Fresh: Bamboo inhibits bacterial growth, prolonging freshness and helping to protect health and good hygiene. Bamboo is naturally antibacterial and anti-fungal and anti-static. These qualities are retained in fabric form. Therefore this product is guaranteed to be odour resistant, staying fresher for longer, because it resists the spread of bacteria. As a result, it’s also healthier and more hygienic. Naturally Grown: Bamboo is 100% naturally grown, without pesticides or fertilizers All our activewear is made principally from bamboo, grown wild and completely naturally. As the world’s fastest growing plant, its growth pattern makes it perfect for long term sustainable growth. More bamboo clothing means more bamboo forests, which means more habitats for wildlife, and less greenhouse gas. Cotton is ecologically, the worst possible crop, using 25% of the world’s chemical fertilisers and pesticides for only 10% of the worlds farmed land. Bamboo clothing is nature’s perfect answer to our desire for better performing fabric, that comes from an environmentally sustainable and affordable source.
