SATIN Satin sheets can be made from a variety of materials including cotton, sink, polyester, or wool. This type of fabric tends to be of high quality due to its soft feel and shining appearance. Satin is also a great material for keeping warm throughout colder nights. The only downside is that these sheets can be hard to care for, and are not as durable as other varieties.
There are different varieties of cotton, as well as different quality levels. Two of the highest quality cottons are Egyptian and Pima/Supima cotton.Egyptian cottonis grown in Egypt, as the name suggests. Pima cotton is grown in the United States, although you might often see it referred to as “Supima,” as well. This is a portmanteau of “superior pima” and is a registered trademark of the Supima trade association, which promotes Pima cotton.
