One of the best things we can do for our bodies is keep them moving. Whether you enjoy the peace and quiet of a weekly yoga class, the challenge of a sweaty Pilates session or unwinding with a long walk after work, regular exercise keeps us feeling happy and healthy.
But no matter how pumped up we are for a workout, having the right activewear can make a massive difference in the quality of our sessions. For many health and wellness lovers, Bamboo is a popular choice due to its incredible fabric properties. In this blog post, we’ll discuss why Bamboo yoga clothing is the ideal fabric for your next Yoga or Pilates session.
- Ease of movement and flexibility
No matter how you choose to move your body, you need to be able to do it freely and comfortably — Bamboo is a show-stopper in this department. The natural fibres of Bamboo yogawear are inherently soft and flexible, making it the perfect choice for activities that require fluidity and grace. Whether you're holding an intricate yoga pose or taking a brisk walk, Bamboo clothing won't restrict your movements, providing a comfortable experience.
The flexibility of Bamboo fabric blended with a small percentage of Elastane allows the fabric to stretch while keeping its original form after washing. This means you can enjoy your Bamboo yoga clothing for years to come without worrying about it losing its shape, quality, comfort or performance. It also means you won’t have to worry about replacing your workout gear frequently, helping you save a few bucks in the long run.
- Antibacterial properties
Bamboo fabric is naturally resistant to bacteria and fungi due to an antimicrobial bio-agent known as "bamboo kun" present in its fibres. This agent actively combats microbial growth, reducing odour buildup and providing a healthier, more hygienic environment for your skin, even during the sweatiest yoga or Pilates sessions.
- Moisture-wicking properties
Bamboo is renowned for its excellent moisture-wicking capabilities. Many fabrics have the tendency to become heavy and uncomfortable when wet, while Bamboo fabric absorbs moisture quickly and efficiently. This helps to keep your skin dry and cool, even during intense workouts or hot weather conditions. Bamboo's moisture-wicking properties also help prevent the growth of bacteria and odours, ensuring that your clothing stays fresh and clean.
These properties also make Bamboo clothing highly breathable. The natural fibres of Bamboo allow for optimal airflow, preventing your body from overheating — much needed during those intense Pilates and yoga sessions. Staying cool and comfortable means you’ll be able to stay focused and perform at your best.
- Hypoallergenic
Bamboo is naturally hypoallergenic due to the absence of chemicals and irritants. This means it is less likely to cause an allergic reaction when worn. Bamboo's hypoallergenic properties can help prevent rashes, itching and other skin irritations, making it a top choice for individuals with sensitive skin.
- Eco-friendly material
Did you know that Bamboo is the fastest-growing grass in the world? This makes Bamboo a rapidly renewable resource that can be easily replenished when needed and with low impact on the environment. As reducing the epidemic of fast fashion is a concern for many, Bamboo yoga clothing presents a sustainable alternative for quality workout gear.
Bamboo also requires fewer resources and produces less pollution during the manufacturing process. It is also biodegradable and will decompose naturally once you decide to part ways with your activewear.
- Soft and comfortable
Whether you’re putting on a pair of Bamboo yoga pants or slipping into a Bamboo sports bra, nothing beats that buttery texture. Bamboo fabric possesses a silky-smooth texture that feels incredibly gentle against the skin. This softness provides a luxurious and comfortable experience, even during your more intense workouts.
The softness of Bamboo fabric also helps to reduce friction and irritation, preventing chafing and discomfort and giving you added comfort during activities that involve repetitive movements.
