Is Bamboo the Best T-Shirt Fabric for Workouts?
If you sweat during training, your t-shirt should work with your body, not against it. Most gym tees feel the same. Kojo Fit bamboo and rayon shirts feel better, stretch better and look sharp in or out of the gym.
Here’s how bamboo and rayon compare to Dri-Fit, cotton and polyester. Plus, why our Bamboo and Knit Rayon T-Shirts are your best options for comfort, performance and style.
1. Why Kojo Fit Bamboo T-Shirts Stand Out
We use a high-performance bamboo and elastane blend. It’s soft on skin, naturally breathable and built to perform.
- Soft feel with no irritation
- Breathable to help cool you down
- Wicks moisture away fast
- 4-way stretch that doesn’t cling or sag
- Anti-bacterial and low odour
- UV protection for outdoor sessions
- Eco friendly with no harsh chemicals
It looks like a premium social tee but performs like activewear. That’s why our Essential Bamboo T-Shirts are trusted by men across Australia.
2. Why Our Knit Rayon T-Shirts Are Next Level

If you want an ultra-soft shirt that drapes perfectly and keeps you cool, Kojo Fit Knit Rayon T-Shirts are the answer. Made from natural wood pulp fibres and blended with spandex, they move with you and feel light on skin.
- Ultra-soft feel, smooth texture
- Cool and breathable fabric
- Stretchy but holds shape
- Low odour, even after sweat
- Smart fit that works for gym or going out
Perfect for guys who want more than just a basic gym tee. These shirts give a polished look without giving up comfort.
3. Dri-Fit and Polyester Blends
Dri-Fit shirts wick sweat and stretch well, but they use polyester. That traps heat and can irritate skin. Styling is often gym-only, with synthetic feel and loose fit.
- Moisture wicking and stretch
- Polyester base doesn’t breathe well
- No eco benefits
- Some report breakouts and irritation
Kojo Fit gives you the same performance with more comfort, better fit and no plastic feel.
4. Charged Cotton and Treated Blends
These use chemicals to add sweat control, but they often shrink or fade. Styling is basic, with big logos and boxy cuts.
- Wicks moisture but prone to shrinkage
- Durability can drop fast
- Mostly gym-only wear
Kojo Fit shirts keep shape, stay soft and look better long term.
5. Regular Cotton T-Shirts
Cotton feels good dry but gets heavy and sticky with sweat. It takes ages to dry and loses shape over time.
- Cheap and easy to find
- No moisture control or stretch
- Heavier when wet
- Not built for active movement
Bamboo and rayon both outperform cotton in comfort, sweat control and fit retention.
Why Choose Kojo Fit T-Shirts
Our Bamboo and Rayon shirts are designed for guys who move, train and care about how they feel and look.
- Tailored fits for athletic and muscular bodies
- Activewear-level comfort with casual styling
- Natural fibres that work with your body
- No logos or gimmicks, just clean style
- Easy to wear from gym to street
Care tip: Bamboo and rayon don’t like high heat. Avoid dryers and stick to air dry or low iron for long life.
