Okay, we've finally had a slew of days over thirty degrees and thoughts are turning to summer.

As part of our personal clean-up effort, I am urging my husband to find better socks. Cotton looks nice and clean, seems natural, but did you know it uses some of the most and worst pesticides of any crop? Then there's all these artificial "dry fit" fibers that are also worrisome. Socks and undies are important to consider because they are the items that are closest to your body and therefore heat up the most and can transfer things into your skin. Okay, no cotton socks?

Well, you don't need to worry about it now that they have pesticide and fertilizer-free bamboo socks. These SPUN Bamboo socks got the double-thumbs up from my husband...and me! I was having a laundry crisis and grabbed them. Oddly, I have tiny feet and my husband had huge man-feet, but these stre-e-e-e-e-e-tch. And they are naturally antibacterial (that's why bamboo cutting boards are great), feel like silk, and look like that cool artificial material that probably makes your feet stink.

These guys also have a cute cami top that comes with the benefit of adjustable straps--great for layering or a bra alternative or for sleepytime. Go bamboo! Get these at Ecodesignz.
