So shrinkage and feminine neck seem to be the two problems with bamboo. Have any wholesalers attempted to correct these?

The bamboo shirts I buy all of the fabrics are prewashed before sewing so there is no shrinkage with them.

I haven't seen any shrinkage problems with the bamboo shirts I've purchased?

Rodney,
Will heat transfer sheets that are used for 100% cotton & 50-50 blends be long-lasting on the bamboo/organic cotton shirts?

I was planning to feature organics, so these bamboo shirts sound like they'd be perfect for my line of Ts.

Continental Clothing! Their normal line and their Earth Positive line both fashionable 100% bamboo tees. Actually, their bamboo t-shirt is my absolute favorite t-shirt of all time. It is the most comfortable, luxurious t-shirt I have ever worn. I love the one that I ordered as a sample so much; unfortunately, they're pretty expensive...

My issue with continental is that they are so thin. If you order white they are super sheer so you would need to wear something else under them at least with the womens. I have not tried the mens bamboo.

The womens do have a nice fit but very thin.

Whoops, I made a mistake: Continental's bamboo tees are 70% bamboo/30% organic cotton. They're still really lush! Men's style is 4.4 oz, while women's styles are 3.4 oz, so the men's tees aren't as sheer and light as the women's.
