What exactly is bamboo jersey

Bamboo jersey is a knit fabric made from bamboo fibre combined with a small amount of elastane for the necessary stretch. The result is a medium weight knit with a silky finish and a supple, flowing drape. Thanks to the bamboo fibre, the fabric is extremely breathable and feels cool and soft against the skin, ideal for anyone sensitive to scratchy fabrics. The four-way stretch means garments move with you without losing their shape.

Ring-spun yarn: you'll notice the difference right away

This bamboo jersey is made using ring-spun yarn instead of open-end yarn. This spinning process creates longer, stronger fibres that are twisted more tightly, resulting in a smoother surface and less pilling after washing. Ring-spun yarn also gives the fabric a softer feel and a better sheen, exactly what you see in the silky appearance of this cobalt blue. Plus, the fabric is more durable in use, because ring-spun fibres don't break or pill as easily as open-end yarn.
