Sheets - Fabric Guide

We suggest purchasing three sets of sheets for each bed (one on the bed, one in the laundry and one in the linen closet).

If you are having difficulty finding a speciatly sheet size, try looking in our "Open Stock Sheets" section. We carry specialty sizes in fitted sheets for mattresses in the following hard to find sizes: Twin X-long (39" x 80"), Double X-Long (54" x 80"), Three Quarter-3/4 (48" x 75").

Thread count is the number of threads per square inch of fabric. This includes the weave or the count of horizontal and vertical threads. The higher the thread count, the softer the sheet. 

Egyptian Cotton is the highest quality of cotton. It has an exceptionally soft and luxurious feel. Highly durable. 

Certified Organic Cotton is 100% natural cotton. It is grown free of toxic pesticides, fertilizers or genetic engineering. As a result, it is good for those with sensitive skin. By choosing organic, you are supporting the environment and helping to reduce impact on farmers and communities. 

Wrinkle Free Cotton is put through a chemical process to make it resistant to wrinkles.

Rayon from Bamboo & Cotton is a blend of rayon made from Bamboo plants and 100% cotton fibers.  The rayon from bamboo content helps wicks away moisture and block bacterial growth. This new age material offers easy, “wash and wear” care. 

Sateen is a soft, luxurious, 100% cotton fabric weave. Most of the threads are placed on the surface of the sheeting, creating a satin-like sheen. The special square weave gives it extra strength, colour fastness and durability.

Flannel is a 100% cotton fabric that has been brushed hundreds of times, exposing the fibres to give its soft feel. The heavier weight flannel produces a high level of softness and durability.  Flannel by nature has a high warmth factor and absorptive qualities. While at the same time it is highly breathable making this sheet ideal for year round use. 

Jersey Knit is a 100% cotton fabric. It is a stretchy, knit fabric and resembles that of your average T-shirt material.  It is not as cold as 100% cotton fabric and not as warm as 100% cotton flannel fabric. 

Comfort Fleece is a 100% polyester fibre and made to ensure softness, warmth, durability and comfort.  The surface is brushed to fluff up the fibres, giving it the cozy, thick feel.  Comfort Fleece by design has the property to wick away moisture from the body to ensure a comfortable night’s sleep. It is best used in the winter months. 

Micro Fleece is a 100% polyester fibre, similar to Comfort Fleece. It is also durable but more ultra-fine, high quality and lightweight than Comfort Fleece. This fabric also wicks away moisture, dries quickly and traps heat efficiently. It is ideal for year round use, unlike Comfort Fleece that is recommended for winter months. We recommend: Anti-Pill Microfleece Sheet Sets

Coral Fleece is a 100% polyester fibre that is more higher end and luxurious than Micro Fleece.  It is super soft, plush, absorbs moisture and an excellent choice for year round use.  Unlike Micro Fleece and Comfort Fleece, Coral Fleece flat sheets are soft on both sides. 

Satin is a 100% polyester fibre. It is the shiniest and one of the most luxurious fabrics. Satin is cold to the touch, therefore, it's excellent for those who sleep hot. Satin must be washed in cold water briefly and put in a cool dryer to prevent static. High grade satin wrinkles but ironing on a low setting will remove all wrinkles.
