About Our Products
What are the benefits of bamboo fabrics?
Bamboo fabric is incredibly soft and gentle on sensitive skin. It's also naturally breathable, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating, keeping you cool during summer.
Are your products suitable for children with eczema?

Is bamboo fabric safe for babies?

How often should I wash my bamboo products?
You can wash your bamboo products as often as needed. However, due to their natural odor-resistant properties, they may not require washing as frequently as other fabrics.
Is bamboo fabric see-through?
The opacity of our bamboo fabrics depends on the specific product and its weave. We use thicker weaves for items that need more coverage and lighter weaves for more breathable options.
Are your products organic?
Bamboo is a natural product. It grows without the help of chemicals and pesticides. However, to convert bamboo into fabrics, we mix 3% spandex with it.
How does bamboo fabric compare to cotton?
Both bamboo and cotton are natural fibers, but bamboo has several advantages. It's softer, more breathable, and has better moisture-wicking properties. Bamboo is also considered a more sustainable option due to its fast-growing nature.
Are your bamboo products pre-washed?
Yes, all our bamboo products come pre-washed to ensure maximum softness and prevent shrinkage after the first wash.
Can I iron my bamboo clothes?
Yes, you can iron your bamboo clothes on a low heat setting. However, it's generally not necessary because bamboo wrinkles less than other fabrics.
What materials are your zippers and snaps made of?
We use copper and zinc for snaps. Our zippers are made of aluminum and zinc and coated with lead-free paint. They also meet the OEKO-TEX and CPSC requirements and undergo a third-party lab test.
Do bamboo products affect Pandas' food source?
No, bamboo is a very fast-growing natural resource. You can find bamboo plants all over the world. We have our own bamboo garden, which is FSC-certified, so we don’t need to buy them from another source.
How do I maintain The Sleepy Sloth’s fabric?
Wash with cold water and mild detergent on a delicate cycle. Avoid bleach and fabric softener. Tumble dry low or line dry for best results.
Does bamboo fabric pill easily?
Bamboo fiber is very delicate. We use 97% pure bamboo fiber in our products. Pilling can occur due to abrasion and rubbing against other fabrics. However, it doesn’t affect the softness and functionality of our products.
We recommend washing our fabrics with cold water and gentle detergent on a delicate cycle. Don’t wash them with other types of fabrics. Just hand them on the line to dry them.
