As discussed above, there are many different materials used to make sheets. Each material has its own unique properties, as well as its own pros and cons. It’s important to consider what you want from your sheets as you decide on a material. Do you value softness the most? Breathability and cooling? Durability? Ease of care? Determine what characteristics you want from your sheets and start narrowing down which materials will fit those needs best.

Bed Sheets: The Foundation of Comfort

 Another misconception about microfiber sheets is that they make you sweat.  While it's true that microfiber isn't as breathable as natural fibers like cotton, high-quality microfiber sheets are designed to wick away moisture and regulate body temperature.  Look for microfiber sheets with moisture-wicking properties to ensure a comfortable, sweat-free sleep experience.

JERSEY KNIT While Jersey knit sheets are still made from either natural or synthetic cotton, where they differ is the way they are produced. Instead of being woven like traditional cotton sheets, they are knitted. This gives the sheets a natural stretch and extra warmth. Keep in mind that jersey knit sheets do not have a thread count. Instead, the quality of the sheet can be measured by its weight per square yard.
