Have you been struggling to find men’s big and tall bamboo t-shirts? As some of you may know, I have a major love of bamboo, and I love that it is not just eco-friendly but incredibly soft, making it one of my favorite fabrics for dresses, t-shirts, sheets, and so much more. However, my husband has always had difficulty finding a t-shirt. Part of the problem is that he isn’t just tall but allergic to polyester, and it feels almost impossible to find a 100% cotton shirt made for tall men. Almost everyone mixes it with polyester, and the quality isn’t there, especially for the typically high price tag. His dream had always been finding bamboo t-shirts like some I had years ago, but it was something he gave up on after finding none for himself back then.
While finding him t-shirts has been a nightmare; things worsened after Covid and inflation. Almost no one has a stock of shirts that will fit him, and many low-quality shirts that would work for him went to $70 – $110 a shirt! With those prices, I decided to take my search seriously again, and see if I could find anything that would work. Even though it had been years since my own wore out, I decided to look for men’s bamboo shirts, hoping SOMEONE finally made them in his sizes. To my surprise – the first men’s big and tall bamboo clothing store opened – Big Boy Bamboo! Knowing that many other people are in the same boat as my husband, I couldn’t wait to share our experience with Big Boy Bamboo Big and Tall Men’s Bamboo T-shirts!
Note: Before going into the review, I want to be upfront with you guys. We purchased quite a few shirts before this review, but before I could put in my second order, Andrew from Big Boy Bamboo reached out to us and asked us to do a formal review. This review is still 100% our honest opinion, and some of the links may be affiliate links (aka a way for us to feed our bamboo addiction with their shirts).
Big Boy Bamboo: Who Are They?
Are you looking for the most comfortable men’s big and tall bamboo t-shirts? If so, we think you will love Big Boy Bamboo! Started in 2015, they are the only men’s big and tall bamboo clothing brand in the world. After discovering that no one made viscose bamboo t-shirts for larger men, they made it their mission to create the best bamboo t-shirts for men of all sizes!
When they designed their shirts, they made sure they had that extra room guys need for maximum comfort. In other words, they are the comfy relaxed fit that guys love, not the tight, ‘form’ fitting shirts that have become trendy lately (who even likes them?) Their shirts are made from 70% organic viscose from bamboo and 30% organic cotton. This gives the shirts that wonderfully soft feel that bamboo is known for and keeps them very cool. Since they want to be the store for all guys, their shirts can be found in a variety of colors, from the traditional (S – XL), big (2XL – 8XL), or tall (1XLT – 4XLT).
As part of their pride in creating the best men’s big and tall bamboo shirts, they also care quite a bit about how their shirts are made. They are very transparent about how their shirts are made and the proud to show off the factory where they are made. I don’t know many companies who are happy to show off the tour of the facility and show the actual workers. To me, this is what makes shopping with a small business worth it, too – they are real people and actually care about the customers! When you purchase from Big Boy Bamboo, you get bamboo t-shirts that look great and are sustainably made with pride.
Big Boy Bamboo T-Shirts: Our Thoughts
Before I go any further, I will be blunt; we LOVE these bamboo t-shirts. These big and tall bamboo t-shirts are by far the best bamboo shirts I’ve felt – they are soft, easy to care for, and cooling. When Big Boy Bamboo says they will be your new favorite sustainable clothing brand, they mean it. I cannot find anything I dislike about the shirts. Even air drying the shirts after the washer takes almost no time, and they have almost no wrinkles (at least when I had them hanging in a closet on a hanger. As you can see from the pictures, they are also the perfect length (my husband is 6’1).
My husband isn’t the only one who loves these shirts (but we will get into that review tomorrow). These big and tall bamboo shirts look and feel fabulous and are also amazingly priced. I honestly cannot think of a single reason to go back to 100% cotton t-shirts for him, especially when they are twice the cost and aren’t the same quality as these shirts. If you want to end your search for the perfect bamboo t-shirt (or t-shirt in general), I highly recommend checking out Big Boy Bamboo’s Big and Tall Bamboo t-shirts.
