If you're adventuring in the Alps or on a beach holiday or at home, it's the most comfortable and versatile option available.
Better for the environment
The growth cycle of bamboo is utterly sustainable. As a source material for clothing it's revolutionary:
Bamboo thrives naturally without using any pesticides or fertilizers and Bamboo fibre is 100% biodegradable. Being the fastest growing plant in the world it spreads rapidly across large areas and as agrass, bamboo is cut, not uprooted, helping soil stability.
Bamboo grows on hill slopes where nothing else is viable and the yield (i.e. the amount of product) you get from an acre of bamboo is 10 times greater than the yeld you get from cotton. In an age where land use is under enormous pressure this is huge.
The water requirement for bamboo is minute, mainly just from what falls, as opposed to cotton, whose water requirement per shirt's-worth is monstrous.
