ONNO Men's Bamboo T-Shirt

I bought a Arbor (skate shop) t-shirt and it was bamboo and it was so soft and comfortable I wanted to find a similar shirt without the obnoxious logos. This was it. This is soft, fits great, can wear it everyday. The company was honest enough to say that it was slightly fitted so I ordered a size up (XXXL) and it was perfect. I am 6'3"Now I have owned a million t-shirts and I usually go cotton, but I am a convert bamboo believer. Bamboo is lighter, softer, dries quicker, packs smaller and does not shrink like cotton. It is better for hot weather and I like to wear it on the water sailing.The blue is a grey blue color - very nice.I plan to order more ASAP!I ordered a second, still very happy with these and I want to get a few more.The stitching on the waist opening has come out on my first shirt a bit. But I still give this 5 stars and I would definitely buy more.I would go a size up if you like a loose fitting shirt and exact size if you like a fitted shirt.UPDATE:I wore these shirts over and over on an 115 degree Moab trip. Washed them in the sink when I could find one. The blue one lost its color from sun, sweat and soap. I was hard on these shirts and they did well aside from that. Blue is a workout only shirt now, but the black one did great!ANOTHER UPDATE:Sometimes you love something at first and then the love fades. Not so with these shirts. I love Onno's organic hemp t-shirt as well. The bamboo feels soft right out of the box so it is very rewarding when you order it. The hemp shirts need a few washings to feels nice.How to choose from 2 great shirts (Onno hemp or Onno bamboo)?Bamboo is softer right out of the box (better for gifts)Bamboo is better for super hot climatesBamboo is lighter for runningBamboo packs a little smallerBamboo dries a little fasterHemp feel great after some wearing and washing (scratchy out of the box, wash right away)Hemp shape and material holds up a little better to abuse (bamboo is thinner)Hemp colors are not as shiny as the photos seem - olive is a military olive not shiny at all (charcoal, olive and black are favs)I wear both the hemp and the bamboo all the time. I double up the bamboo often to add layered versatility.I now have:4 black bamboo3 blue bamboo1 grey bamboo1 green hemp2 charcoal hemp2 black hemp

The sleeves on this shirt are just plain stupid. This shirt is made in China, so it figures this company would trust the Chinese to design the measurements of the shirts. I got an XXL and I am telling you I have tank tops that cover my arms more of my biceps than this t-shirt. The sleeves on this thing literally need to be at least twice, if not three times longer. People just might be able to see your armpits if you raise your hand. Clearly the Chinese have no understanding of American body sizes.

I have to agree with many of the reviews, the fabric of this T shirt is soft and high quality. The reason for the return is the sizing. The sleeves are cut for a man with small biceps, the chest is tight, the waist and length are good, at least prior to any laundering.I ordered an XL, thinking that it would fit a Med. but it was very tight, not just a little. If you are into muscle-stud-view, then this might work for you. Just don't try to brush your teeth.

Mind you I'll preface this with- I'm trying to compare bamboo/viscose rayon tshirts with the merino wool (super thin) athleisure shirts I've tried, and my observation is that for humid subtropical environments (Maryland, but much of the US East Coast would apply) the wool shirt performs better; in part because it's thinner.The Onno bamboo tshirt is 70% viscose rayon and 30% cotton, feels thicker than other athletic shirts I've worn (merino wool, polyester), takes a lot longer to dry out (notable using the electric clothes dryer; both merino wool shirts were warm and bone dry while the Onno was still quite wet), but otherwise feels cool to the touch initially. I'd imagine this kind of garment will work great in dry-heat environments e.g. US West coast and Rocky Mountains, where the moisture retention will help avoid skin problems associated with dryness, but in humid environments I wouldn't count on this doing much for you.Fitment of the shirt is about expected, and bamboo fiber does "drape" very nicely; doesn't hug your skin as much as wool and synthetics but looks more stylish IMO, makes the dad bod a bit less obvious!

My wife bought me two of these as a gift for Father's Day. I didn't start using them at first because I tend to dislike undershirts, and I usually only wear white ones. Once I finally grudgingly got one out and put it on, I was instantly hooked. They're super soft, very cool, and don't bunch up into my armpits like most cotton T-style undershirts. It almost feels like having nothing on under my outer shirt. I'm putting these on my Christmas list.

These are "fitted" shirts, which typically means they're slightly slimmer compared to other brands.I ordered the 3xl, and with my build, they fit perfectly. I'm 6'1 roughly 250 pounds with a long torso. They don't balloon outwardslike other 3xl shirts, but there is enough room all around for me to move around, and the length fits me perfectly. Don't have to worry about "plumber's crack" occurring with these shirts.They are comfortable and lightweight. They are kind of in between a t-shirt and an undershirt. The heather grey is awesome. I also got this in the natural. The natural is a bit see through, and my nipples show right through. However, it is a great undershirt for button downs, or even using them to sleep in.They are pricey, but worth it in my opinion.

The material is light weight, form fitting, and almost as smooth as silk. Liked it so much I ordered three more in different colors.One oddity is that my cat will pull the t-shirt out of the laundry to lay on it. My cat has never displayed that behavior before.I have spent a lot of time working out and trying to get in reasonable shape for an old man, this shirt shows my work off without looking gaudy and gouache.

These ONNO company t-shirts are an excellent quality. 70% bamboo and 30% cotton. They are so soft and breathable. Great for summer wear.
