High Absorbency: As a plant, bamboo itself has a higher absorbing quality, which makes it grow faster. As a fabric also it retains the same property of high absorbency. It wicks away the moisture present on your body making you feel dry and comfortable. It is highly breathable too.

Thermo control: Bamboo fiber is extremely breathable and in hot climates it is naturally cool to touch since the cross section of the bamboo fiber is filled with various micro gaps and holes. It is warm in cold climates due to the micro texture at the base layer which traps the warm air next to the skin.

Strong and durable: Bamboo fiber has a high abrasion proof capacity and tenacity. This makes the fiber strong and highly durable.
