    Bamboo fabric

    I got a bamboo top today. made out of bamboo fiber's. It is amazing! here is the website. I bought mine at a place called Hemp shack down town. It is really neat. I told my sister I had just got a bamboo shirt and of coarse she said"Ahhhh ok. Bran isn't it uncomfortable?" Ha! She's young. https://www.bamboosa.com/index.php
    My dh felt it and could not believe how soft it was. And it isAnti-bacterial and oder free. it feels like silk. and it was only $23.00 i thought that was a good price.
    Blessed are the flexible, for they shall not be bent out of shape.

    We have Bamboo sheets on our bed, they are wonderful!! Super soft and in our hot summers they breath really well. We have had them two years I think and we won't put the others we own on the bed. We just wash the bamboo and put them back on. We should probably buy some more.

    I have some bamboo socks, but the best use of bamboo cloth I've seen so far is for cloth diapers and baby wipes! My daughter is almost ten months old and the bamboo velour wipes we use for her diaper changes look brand new. We only have a couple of bamboo diapers but they are pretty amazing, too. Soft, very absorbant, and they do not stain.

    I have numerous pair of bamboo socks purchased from Target.
    Very soft and cool.

    I got (bamboo-colored) bamboo blend sheets at Target! They're barely not as soft as my nice cotton ones, but they feel more breathable, which I think makes them more comfortable
