Percale sheets

Elom · ‎06-15-2010

I do not care for microfiber type sheets or the sateen no matter how high the threat count. So I decided to try percale sheets. The other channel has them available and some nice colors and great price. Any thoughts?

I love percale, and won't use anything else. I like crisp sheets, and those super soft materials don't do it for me.🌺

I buy 100% cotton percale cotton sheets when I can find them. They are crisp and not slippery or shiny and they breath.

i have some sheets that are cotton/poly percale. They feel okay texture wise, but I am a cotton girl. 100% Cotton percale gets wrinkled and are better if dried on a line. That is why many people prefer the cotton/ poly combo, they are less wrinkled.

Check to see if there is a wrinkle free or no iron disclaimer before you buy.

I spent a LOT of $ on a set high end sheets to find out they were not wrinkle free.

Those are exactly the type of sheets that I love. Truly high end cotton percale wrinkles. They are the best!

I get it-some say they don't like the finish/feel of sheets when the wrinkle free process has been applied.

I have been using percale sheets from LLBean for a few years now. They get wrinkled, but I put them on the bed right out of the dryer and by the next morning they are no longer wrinkles except around the edges. I just ignore that.
