Rule No.6 Bamboo Socks For Men (& Women)
The first gift that comes to mind when I think of both the festive season and bamboo is, you guessed it, socks.
These bamboo socks in particular make a perfect gift for boys and men (and girls and women) because of their cool, funky retro designs—including penguins, the US flag, Lincoln, and even pandas!
Perhaps most importantly, they’re incredibly soft and comfortable and keep your feet cool even when working in the heat in military boots (according to one reviewer).
The bamboo socks are not made from 100% bamboo viscose (80% bamboo, 17% polyester, 3% spandex), but they are made in the USA, giving them extra eco points. Check out their price and availability below on Amazon (1 and 3 packs available).

The bamboo hiking socks are made from 70% bamboo viscose, 25% polyester, 4% rubber, and 1% spandex, so they’re not 100% bamboo. But they are high-performance socks that won’t let you down on long, hot hikes.

H&S Long Handled Back Brush for Skin Exfoliating
The simple pleasure of scratching a good itch just got taken to a whole new level (at least for me).
As a guy that isn’t afraid to exfoliate, I go through sponges and scrubbers like it’s nobody’s business. Part of the reason is I just can’t get enough of them, but mostly it’s because they always fall to pieces in my hands and leave me with a scraggy piece of wet material.
This long-handled brush has been my answer. Not only does it offer good leverage and have a solid handle made from bamboo, it’s gentle enough for sensitive skin and skin conditions like keratosis.
