Why Bamboo T-shirts Are Awesome

If graphic design tees are the new art gallery, then bamboo is the new cotton. Finroo decided to celebrate their artists’ work by only printing on the best: 100% organic bamboo silk. Bamboo is pioneering the textile world towards a greener approach of textile production.

The mission:

Merited to be the fastest growing plant in the world, bamboo has a long history of being used as a raw ingredient for textiles in Asian and Middle Eastern countries, like China and Pakistan. From its cultivation to production, bamboo is nearly chemical free and a very green alternative to its competitors, especially cotton.

The feel:

Described as the perfect combination of silk and cashmere, Bamboo’s fine silk-fibers make for an excellent tee in both its look and drape. Its material is cooler than most other textiles and its strong fibers make it a more durable alternative.

Other aesthetic and green benefits include:

• Anti-microbial
• Resistant to mold and mildew
• Bamboo plant acts as shelter and food for many creatures
• Resistant to odors
