Cotton is a staple fabric spun from the fibers of cotton plants. People around the world have been cultivating it for thousands of years. One of the earliest bits of cotton is at least 7,000 years old and was found in Mexico. In Egypt and Pakistan, people were weaving cotton thread into clothing in 3,000 BC. And in the 18th century, the British first found a way to spin cotton into textile with machinery.

However, the one aspect of fit you may want to consider is pocket depth. Fitted sheets can vary in how deep the pockets are, since mattress heights are not standardized like length and width. If your mattress is more than 10 inches tall, you may want to consider looking specifically for deep-pocket fitted sheets. We recommend the pockets be a few inches larger than the height of your bed — if your bed is 15 inches tall, look for 16 to 17 inch pockets.
