3 x Extra Thick Bamboo Socks
This listing is for 3 x pairs extra thick bamboo socks.
These are the best socks you will ever purchase.
We have all colours and sizes available now.
Please note that there is a helpful way of knowing what size your socks are after purchase, particularly if you buy multiple different sizes for the family!
Each corresponding set of sizes has a different colour toe stitch which denotes what size the sock is. See below for the colour guide.
Size 4-6 = An off-white toe stitch
Size 6-10 = A blue toe stitch
Size 10-14 = Orange toe stitch
Size 14-18 = Pink toe stitch
** Please note - Actual colors may vary from the color on your screen due to monitor color restrictions.
It is perhaps not immediately noticed by someone putting on a bamboo sock for the first time that, apart from the smooth softness, you can hold the sock by the top hem and pull it onto your foot in one smooth movement until it is fully in place and there it stays. Most other sock types have to be almost ‘threaded’ onto your foot in several stages.
Also, on principle, many people wash their socks daily because traditionally, this was the right thing to do. However, with the natural anti-bacterial properties of bamboo fibre, we have had customers report that after wearing the socks for even up to a week straight without washing, they still smell fresh.
No more smelly feet – ever
No more unpleasant body odour.
Bamboo has been grown for millennia in Asia without the use of pesticides. It is rarely attacked by any pests and not susceptible to diseases. The reason for this, Japanese scientists have found, is a unique anti-bacterial agent of bamboo named “bamboo kun”. This substance, combined with the tight molecular structure of bamboo fibres, are believed to give it its anti-bacterial and bacteriostatic properties – which is not diminished even after more than 50 washes! It is also quite different from chemical additives which can often cause skin irritations and other problems.
Anti-bacterial Testing conducted by CTITC (China Textile Industry Testing Centre)
Anti- bacteria test FZ/T 01021-92 conducted July 2003.
Testing Fabric…………Bacteria Introduced…………..24 hrs later bacteria count………………….Performance
Bamboo fabric: …8.6 X 10,000(= 86,000)………………….0.2 X 100 (= 20)………………… = 99.8% elimination
Cotton fabric: …..2 X 100,000 (= 200,000)…….1.1 X 100,000,000 (= 110,000,000)………= 55,000% INCREASE
Similar
scientific tests have been performed by various international textile
testing laboratories. These can easily be accessed in numerous
websites. In bamboo fabric, bacteria numbers were reduced to less than
0.2%.
Whereas in cotton fabric, bacteria number increased to 550 times the original. (refer:-www.bambrotex.com/second/bc_abt.htm)
