Keep it cool in percale cotton
Woven in a classic one-yarn-over, one-yarn-under pattern with an ultra-breathable 200 thread count, percale feels as smooth and crisp as your favorite button down shirt—only better.
Light yet durable
Long cotton fibers, or staples, are woven into a crisp percale weave that's naturally very breathable, moisture-wicking, and cool to the touch.
Just the right thread count
As thread counts rise, fabrics become warmer. We chose a thread count of 200 for the perfect balance of softness and breathability. Our percale cotton is pre-washed for a soft, lived-in feel.
Ethically sourced
Every step in crafting our cotton has been guided by our commitment to improving the livelihood of the workers who handcraft our bedding in India.
Healthier sleep
We only use certified cotton that has passed safety tests for the presence of harmful substances. Natural cotton is also moisture-wicking and hypoallergenic.
FAQsFrequently asked questions
Percale cotton has a crisp feel with a luxe matte finish while sateen cotton has a silky-soft feel with a subtle luster.
Percale cotton has a crisp feel with a luxe matte finish while linen has a subtle texture and a thicker hand feel. Linen is made from flax rather than cotton, so it has longer and thicker threads which make it more durable than cotton.
Both fabrics are known for their breathability and moisture-wicking properties. This makes percale and linen great options for those who sleep hot.
Absolutely! Natural fibers are typically more breathable than synthetic fibers like polyester.
The 100% natural long staple cotton we use for our sheets are 200 thread count for the percale and 300 thread count for the sateen, making it the perfect balance of soft and breathable.
According to the National Sleep Foundation, the sweet spot for thread count in cotton sheets is between 200 and 400. If you tend to sleep hot, a higher thread count may not be a great choice as it tends to trap body heat. Sticking to that sweet spot for thread count is a good way to ensure your cotton sheets won't feel too warm.
Microfiber sheets are made out of polyester fabric, giving them a soft, stretchy feel. They're more affordable than natural cotton sheets but the drawback is that they're not as breathable as cotton or other natural fibers. They're also not as environmentally friendly to produce because they're made from synthetic fibers.
Thread count is the number of horizontal (warp) and vertical (weft) threads in one square inch of cotton fabric. The higher the thread count, the warmer the fabric becomes.
Note that thread count is only relevant to cotton sheets. It's also only one indicator of good quality. Cotton sheet thread count can vary from the 100s to 1,000 or higher. The problem is you can only get so many threads into a loom. Some bedding manufacturers might sacrifice thread quality to increase the thread count.
We chose a thread count of 300 for our sateen cotton, 200 for our percale cotton, and 180 for our percale cotton-viscose blend to achieve the perfect balance of breathability, softness, and durability. We only use long-staple cotton, made from longer cotton fibers, for a stronger, smoother, more durable fabric.
