    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

    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...

    I have two bamboo tank tops. They're so soft and comfy, and they don't retain sweat like cotton.
