Born and raised in the Vancouver area, we know rainy weather! When it comes to rainy days, waterproof jackets, pants, and splash suits are a must. But what you wear under rain gear can make or break your comfort. Bamboo clothing is the ultimate base layer for kids and adults—it’s breathable, soft, and designed to keep you comfortable no matter the weather.
Here is your ‘how-go’ guide to surviving the rainy season without getting stuck inside (or outside cold and wet).
Why is Bamboo great in Wet Weather
Breathable & Moisture-Wicking
Rain gear keeps water out but because it’s not breathable, it traps heat inside. Bamboo fabric naturally wicks away moisture and allows air circulation, preventing that hot, sticky feeling.
Soft on Sensitive Skin
Waterproof fabric can feel stiff and rough. Bamboo layers add buttery softness and prevent irritation, especially important for kids with sensitive skin.
Thermo-Regulating Comfort
Bamboo adapts to your body’s needs—it keeps you warm when the temperature drops and cool when humidity rises. This makes it a reliable option for unpredictable rainy days.
Lightweight & Flexible
Unlike heavy cotton or fleece, bamboo clothing is stretchy and non-bulky. It layers seamlessly under jackets and splash suits, allowing kids to move freely while playing outdoors.
How to Layer Bamboo Under Rain Gear
Here are some easy layering ideas for different rainy-day activities:
- Toddlers & Kids: Start with a long sleeve bamboo top and pants under a rain suit. This adds softness and breathability without overheating.
- Babies: A bamboo sleeper works perfectly as a cozy base layer under a stroller rain cover or baby rain suit.
- Older Kids & Adults: Mix and match bamboo tops and bottoms under waterproof pants and jackets for a versatile, breathable outfit.
