Our bamboo Poncho has been considered the best for quite a while now. We did not make any compromise during its conception and used 550gsm high-quality fabric only.
We now offer a 30 percent lighter alternative for summer or for traveling, so we have designed the Summer Poncho with the same bamboo fabric in 380gsm.
We chose bamboo fabric for mainly two reasons: The Bamboo material has many great characteristics:
Ultra soft feeling
Absorbs water three to four times better than a regular cotton
Dries twice as fast as other materials
Naturally bacteriostatic
Naturally hypo-allergenic
And a reduced impact on earth
Grows without fertilizers and pesticides
Bamboo farming needs four times less water than cotton
Absorbs 30% more CO2 than a tree, creates 30% more oxygen
