Got these casually creased, and they&#8217;re super soft to touch.<\/p>\n<p>As a hot-sleeper, the thing that&#8217;s standing out the most to me is how breathable these are.<\/p>\n<p>A little pro-tip is if you&#8217;re ever trying to figure out how breathable a set of sheets is, hold the top sheet up to the light and see how much light shines through. The more light that shines through, the more breathable it&#8217;s going to be.<\/p>\n<p>I did that, lots of light shining through, so I&#8217;m not surprised to feel how super airy and breathable these are feeling on me. Most are into the way they look.<\/p>\n<p>Not only the casually-creased look, but also the color. The color I&#8217;ve got is called oatmeal. It&#8217;s a nice, refreshing break in my opinion from white cotton bedding that I&#8217;m used to.<\/p>\n<p>There are more colors available online.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2269\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bedroomeo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lorimer-washed-percale-sheet-set.jpg\" alt=\"lorimer-washed-percale-sheet-set\" width=\"600\" height=\"474\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bedroomeo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lorimer-washed-percale-sheet-set.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.bedroomeo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/lorimer-washed-percale-sheet-set-300x237.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Materials\"><\/span>Materials<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Let&#8217;s take a close look at what exactly these sheets are made of.<\/p>\n<p>These sheets are made from a blend of long staple cotton and Tencel. They feature a 300-thread-count of percale weave and have been garment washed.<\/p>\n<p>What does all that mean? Let&#8217;s take it piece by piece.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, the long staple cotton is bringing great durability to the table. When you&#8217;re on the hunt for cotton sheets, a good thing to note is the longer the staple, also known as fiber, the more soft and durable the cotton sheets are going to be.<\/p>\n<p>Essentially, because shorter fibers need to be spliced together more than longer fibers. You&#8217;re going to get more of a coarse feel when the cotton fibers are shorter.<\/p>\n<p>What about the Tencel?<\/p>\n<p>Tencel is actually the name brand for lyocell, which is a sustainable material made from dissolving wood pulp. In the case of this particular sheet set, wood pulp from eucalyptus trees.<\/p>\n<p>Tencel is a super eco-friendly material. The whole Tencel production process is environmentally-sound.<\/p>\n<p>But because the Tencel in this particular sheet set is eucalyptus-based, you&#8217;re getting some extra perks from the eucalyptus. For example, eucalyptus is known for its anti-inflammatory properties. That&#8217;s why these sheets feel cool and soothing on your skin.<\/p>\n<p>Also eucalyptus is known for its anti-microbial properties, which is going to be extra-resistant to mildew and mold and help keep those allergens at bay.<\/p>\n<p>The 300-thread-count is nice and high for cotton sheets, so that&#8217;s contributing to this impeccably smooth finish.<\/p>\n<p>The percale weave is making it matte in appearance, and more crisp than silky smooth. When you&#8217;re on the hunt for cotton bedding, you&#8217;ll notice that you&#8217;re frequently posed with a question. Percale or sateen? This is percale.<\/p>\n<p>A sateen weave usually makes a set of cotton sheets silky and very lustrous and shiny. This is matte in appearance. It is more crisp. Percale sheets are also usually more light and breathable.<\/p>\n<p>Because they&#8217;ve been garment washed, they&#8217;re actually a little less starkly crisp than you might get from a set of cotton sheets that have not been garment washed. That&#8217;s what&#8217;s contributing to this sort of rustic aesthetic.<\/p>\n<p>The garment washing process is a textile manufacturing technique used to boost the softness of cotton bedding and also contribute to this casually-lived in look.<\/p>\n<p>See <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bedroomeo.com\/best-silver-infused-antimicrobial-bed-sheets\/\">best antimicrobial sheets<\/a><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_You_Get\"><\/span>What You Get?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-2268\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bedroomeo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/LORIMER-SHEETS-OATMEAL.jpg\" alt=\"LORIMER-SHEETS-OATMEAL\" width=\"600\" height=\"366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bedroomeo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/LORIMER-SHEETS-OATMEAL.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.bedroomeo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/LORIMER-SHEETS-OATMEAL-300x183.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now that we&#8217;ve taken a very close examination of what these sheets are made of, let&#8217;s talk about what you get with each set.<\/p>\n<p>You get one top sheet, two pillow cases, which I have to say are surprisingly large. I have a queen size set with a queen size pillow. You&#8217;ve got a lot of room to spare here. I&#8217;m not crazy about how baggy this fit is, but if you do have king size pillows of course that&#8217;s going to work for you.<\/p>\n<p>Then one fitted sheet capable of accommodating mattresses up to 18 inches deep, which are super deep pockets. Even folks with taller mattresses should be able to find it a pretty good fit.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pros\"><\/span>Pros<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Let&#8217;s talk about who&#8217;s going to be most compatible with this sheet set.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, hot sleepers. This is going to be a great pick for you. The percale weave is lending itself well to great breathability. When I was rolling around in these sheets, I noticed how light they lie on my body. They&#8217;re very airy and breezy and kept me cool.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Tencel is naturally moisture wicking. You&#8217;re getting that cool, crisp feel from the percale weave but you&#8217;re also getting that extra moisture wicking ability from the Tencel. That&#8217;s going to help you stay fresh and dry.<\/p>\n<p>Like I said, Tencel is eco-friendly. It&#8217;s sustainably source material, so those of you looking to sleep green Tencel is always a good option.<\/p>\n<p>The Tencel in this particular sheet set is also eucalyptus-based. You&#8217;re getting those nice, uniquely-soothing anti-inflammatory properties that feel cool and soothing on your skin.<\/p>\n<p>Also, you&#8217;re getting the nice anti-microbial properties, which like I said are working hard to keep those allergens at bay. It makes this whole sheet set more resistant to mold and mildew and anything else you don&#8217;t want crawling into your sleep space.<\/p>\n<p>Something that I like about this sheet set is that it&#8217;s been garment washed. The garment washing process is contributing to this causally-lived in look, this rustic aesthetic that I find to be particularly charming. It&#8217;s also boosting the soft smoothness.<\/p>\n<p>Something great about Kassatex is with this particular sheet set, you are offered a 60-day trial period. You can try these sheets out for 60 days. See how you like them and if you decide it&#8217;s not the right fit for you, send them back for a refund.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Cons\"><\/span>Cons<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>A few things to consider about this sheet set before you make your purchase.<\/p>\n<p>First of all, the pillow cases. If you have an exceptionally large or really lofty pillow, then I guess it&#8217;s really not going to be a problem. If you&#8217;ve got a standard or queen size pillow, I have to say the pillow cases are surprisingly large and look a bit baggy.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing is these are garment washed and that is bringing that crispness down a little bit and boosting that soft, smooth feel. That crisp feel of percale cotton sheets is base of appeal for some sleepers. If you&#8217;re a sleeper who likes a really crisp set of cotton sheets, you might want to try these first.<\/p>\n<p>Another thing to know is, ranging from $105 to $225, depending on the size set that you get, the truth is these sheets aren&#8217;t going to be in everyone&#8217;s budget. Of course, a nice 60-day trial period does help, but there are some less expensive options on the market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Here I&#8217;m reviewing the Lorimer Washed Percale sheet set from Kassatex.
