You're right though, the way they soften fabrics needs to be investigated further.... @Layla: well apart from the bamboo pads, I’ve not tried anything either.

(I wonder if they are GMO-free, toxic-free soybeans though, and how it's made?) Have been sceptical of bamboo since I first found out about it (it was in some mostly-non-eco catalogues with so many excellent adjectives that it immediately made me suspicious!) I have had better thoughts about hemp, since it needs no toxics to grow.. Still not sure what kind of chemicals they treat it with to make it soft, and if they are iffy or okay? As far as I know, conventional hemp products were well, not soft! :) I’ve been wondering what these would feel like!! :)

My favorite shirt is bamboo. It's so soft and wears well. It doesn't stretch out with washing (and I haven't noticed shrinking either). And it even controls odor. It makes me wonder why cotton is still so popular. Bamboo is so much better. That dress is adorable.
