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 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

I have 2 pairs of bamboo cords that I bought at title nine that are made by Horny Toad. I love them. They make me feel like I'm wearing PJs at work.

I usually don't wear much to bed but I spent two cold winter months without Bubba so I bought a nightshirt from DreamSack. 95% Bamboo/5% spandax. Feels like the silkiest pima cotton/silk blend. Obsolutely heavenly against the skin.

OK
Bamboo fabric???
I had NO idea bamboo could be clothing, or sheets, or socks!!!!

Neither did I! My horizons are broadening as I type
Nor did I know there was a clothing company called Horny Toad. Now, that's a bizarre name...
