How much would you spend or are willing to spend on a solid color bamboo tee?

Yes, they're are made in the USA (Cali to be exact) and we will have 100% Organic Cotton, 100% Bamboo, or my favorite and most durable 80% Bamboo, 20% Organic Cotton. Tagless tees with a white screen hit on the inside collar, I will have pics of fits, colors and any other information in a week or so once I get back from Germany...

What's the deal with bamboo anyways? I never heard about it being used in T-shirts until just recently and now it seems like the big new trend.

they've been around for a while now, i think with the whole "green" thing and bamboo being such a sustainable plant, not to mention they make the softest, lightest, most comfortable fabric ever, it's become such a hit. the fit is awesome and it just breathes so well, almost like you're not wearing a t-shirt at all...

does it really matter, hahaha?!?! no seriously, i am trying to just give the public what they want at a reasonable price. not everything has to cost an arm and a leg, especially something like a blank t-shirt no matter what it's made from, to me it's all about quality, fit and feel, not just the brand name...

I'm actually about to leave to the airport soon, but upon my return all shall be revealed. In terms if bulk, my partner and I haven't decided yet the quantities, I was thinking like buy 5 get 1 free or price breaks for orders of 12 or more, these are all details that need to be ironed out. I was mainly trying to see if there was an interest and if the price-point was good. PM any other questions you may have and I'll get back to you when I can...
