ORGANIC BAMBOO SPANDEX THICK JERSEY ► 

92% bamboo and 8% spandex 290GSM creating a jersey material that combines the natural benefits of bamboo with the stretch and recovery properties of spandex. Bamboo fiber is derived from the bamboo plant through a process that transforms the cellulose in bamboo into a soft, silky fiber. Spandex, also known as elastane, adds elasticity to the fabric, allowing it to stretch and return to its original shape. The jersey construction provides a smooth, flexible, and comfortable surface, making it suitable for a variety of garments, such as activewear, loungewear, and everyday clothing.
