Hey guys,
Has anyone had any experience with bamboo base layers, specifically the Deerhunter brand?
I have been putting off a new base layer top after my last gave up the ghost. Of course I was going to go for merino, but after seeing the icebreaker stuff in person, and concluding the 160gsm and 200gsm both too thin, and the 260gsm rather expensive, I've decided to go a cheaper route and put the additional funds to something else.
I was just about to buy an Ussen Baltic top, as I quite like the wicking of polypro, and even though I would prefer not to stink it is after all going to be used for camping away from the missus and I don't mind my own stink lmao.
My only experience with bamboo viscose is with socks, which I absolutely adore. I am happy to try bamboo as a layer, too, but I'd like to confirm it's comparable to the alternatives in terms of warm to weight, and resistance to wear.
Anyway, any input welcome!
