@Mominohio.  The important factor is not that they're NN, but that they are Supima Cotton.

That means nothing if the construction isnt' good. Their elastic has become so inferior, their sizing is not consistent and Supima Cotton or any other type of cotton they brag about means nothing when it isn't dyed well and poorly constructed. 

I would bet the ranch these won't last they way people will be expecting for the price.

I have purchased garments made with Supima Cotton.

I would not want my sheets made of it, too soft.

I like something more crisp.

And if QVC is jacking up the price because it's Supima Cotton, that's dishonest.

The shirts I had were not that much more expensive than a regular cotton shirt.

I could not verify that they are certified organic. Many companies just slap the word on there and use loopholes to get away with is basically false advertising. Being from the South, cotton is NOT easily organic. It is extremely fertilizer, pesticide and herbicide heavy and genetically modified on top of that. The chemicals can make you very, very sick if you are out when they are spraying or in/near for a while after (days). A crop sprayed in the day will still make people sick that night if you are in it. We had two Department of Natural Resources officers get hospitalized after being in the back of one field looking for night hunters. (I wonder this every time I see some city/suburban person (out of towner) out there trying to snap off a bush to take with them as a souvenir. It is a bit funny watching them trying to snap it like it was a twig. It is one tough bush.
It must be cut with a very sharp knife.) That is why it must be certified organic. It is not something that lends itself to being organic. True organic is very, very expensive. There is a question on the product page about country of origin and the customer service rep dances around it replying about it being certified Supima cotton, not a word on country of origin. Most likely China where slapping organic on it is an easy bribe away.
