This premium quality T-shirt is made from 70% bamboo viscose and 30% organic cotton. Fabric made from bamboo is incredibly soft, smooth and comfortable, and yet at the same time, durable and easy to care for. It quickly absorbs and evaporates moisture; it is highly breathable and cool in hot weather and keeps you warmer in the cold. Bamboo stays fresher and odour free for longer. Bamboo is a sustainable natural fabric. It is fast growing and requires no pesticides. The type of Bamboo used in this Da Londra T-shirt is called Moso and can grow up to 20 metres in just 45-60 days. What's more, it regenerates itself after harvesting and, as it grows in tropical areas with natural rainfall, it needs no extra irrigation. The bamboo viscose for this t shirt is produced in a closed loop system. We have mixed the bamboo viscose in this T-shirt with 30% organic cotton to provide it with a better drape. Organic cotton is grown without the use of chemical pesticides and fertilizers. It is free from genetically modified organisms. Harmful and hazardous chemicals are prohibited in the processing of organic textiles. Under the organic standard, farmers and workers are protected by stringent social criteria, total traceability across the entire supply chain, and also by the ban on the use of poisonous chemicals that can severely damage their health.Please see the Da Londra storefront for other Bamboo, Eucalyptus and Organic Cotton tops.

A comfortable, cool top but not anything amazing.
I've had a few of these from various sources and also more expensive ones from a brand devoted to bamboo clothing. The dearer ones have more stretch and are thicker bit are a baggier, less flattering fit. Performance-wise they do help keep you cool and are fairly good under other layers when it is colder. As for wicking though they don't. Like all bamboo clothing it tends to wet out quite quickly, though it dies dry relatively quickly, too. I wear mien for work and the dearer ones for best but to cycle I use cheap (£3-4) cycle tops from an out of town multi-sports shop as they wick better and breathe well and I change straight after. So, in summary, don't think bamboo is the ultimate answer for performance fabric - it isn't. However, it is very comfortable for a normal t-shirt but therefore should be £5-£7 max.By the way, very good service from the supplier when I realised last on that I had ordered the wrong size. 5 stars for service.

Buy one and be less sore when sweating!!
A good cheap t shirt, bamboo infused so better in the heat than 100% cotton, will not leave you sore when wet, better for athletes and casual wear in the summer and also anti bacterial so issues like lice infections are significantly reduced.You can buy better at higher prices but this is good value and an improvement over polycotton or 100% cotton, better for camping and festivals to I imagine. A good product that arrived on time and a good price for a new type of garment. I recommend this as a type of underwear too.

this fabric is like magic
This is by far the most comfortable t-shirt I have ever purchased. I now wish everything was made of a Bamboo and Cotton mix. The fabric is so fantastic, it's difficult to describe - but if I had to I would say that it's like a highly breathable, strong but light and almost stretchy-silk combination magic. If you're someone who sweats easily, this is fantastic. Just get it, you won't regret it. I think we have 12 of them by now in all colours which have yet to fade after over a year of constant use.

Sizing inaccurate.
This is a lovely t shirt but the sizing description is completely inaccurate. I am a size 12 but after reading the reviews I ordered a large. I NEVER order large in anything. But to my surprise when the t shirt arrived it was like it had shrunk in the wash or something! The label says large but it is definitely NOT a large. A large is a size 16-18 (or at most a 14-16 ) women's size. But this t shirt is barely a size 12. It is a snug/fitted size 12 fit, and certainly not baggy. So the sizing description is wrong and should be changed. Otherwise it is a nice quality, lovely soft t shirt - maybe a little pricey considering the manufacturers seem to be stingy with the material!

Pretty much all of my previous shirts have been thrown ...
I'll only be writing one review for these t-shirts because I buy too many to review them all.2 Years ago I bought one of these and honestly its been a curse aswell as a blessing because I no longer want to wear any other t-shirt.Pretty much all of my previous shirts have been thrown out and I exclusively wear these t-shirts. I wear them to the gym, to go out, to sleep pretty much anything you want to do these shirts are ideal.100% buy one, you'll never look back.

sleeves way too long
Meanwhile the shirt fits nicely and the stretch material makes sure it's not getting lose, the sleeves are way too long. I'm XL and the sleeves went nearly down to my elbow. Not good. T shirt goes back.

Such a soft, comfortable fabric
Completely plain, no stupid logos or 'jokes'. Very nice fit (on me anyway). I always buy t shirts in large and this was no exception.... the fit was exactly as expected. Nice length (I'm 6' 2"). Has been washed many times now and has not discoloured or shrunk/changed shape at all. I bought one in aubergine and liked it so much I got a charcoal one as well. The fabric is so unbelievably soft and comfortable.

Like wearing silk
This t-shirt feels absolutely beautiful. It is so very soft and comfortable feels great to where on its own or beneath other garments, like itchy jumpers to make them much more wearable.It fits me perfectly and after raving about it to my wife I now have it in green as well, which I am very happy about. They have washed up fine and ironed well. What else can I say - if you like the colours buy one. The aubergine colour is highly recommended - easy 5 stars!
