TAKE CARE OF THE CLOTHING, TAKING CARE OF YOU
It's best to wash your bamboo clothing at 30°C with similar colors. We recommend using detergent without strong enzymes, such as wool/silk soap, preferably fragrance-free.
Underpants and panties can be washed at up to 60°C if you prefer, but this may shorten the garment's lifespan.
Do not use chlorine or bleach for white clothing, as it damages the fibers. Avoid tumble drying and hanging clothes to dry in the sun. If you need to tumble dry, use the gentlest cycle with cold air if possible.
Your bamboo clothing does not tolerate ironing and it's not necessary as it doesn't wrinkle.

Take good care of your socks
Bamboo is a porous fiber and therefore the socks wear out easily if you don’t take good care of them. Normally a pair of socks should be able to stay free from holes for at least 4 months, provided you have at least 16 pairs to change between. Below you can read about the most common reasons for socks wearing out too soon.
Hard skin on your feet – hard skin like corns and calluses can cause holes on your socks
Too small shoes – causes the toes to wear unnecessarily on the toe of the shoe which can cause a hole at the tip of the sock
Too big shoes – causes the sock to "skate" around and sag in the heel, which can tear out in particular the heel area
