<\/span><\/h3>\nRemember when I said that this linen sheet set feels different from every other linen
\nsheets set that I’ve tested?<\/p>\n
Well it’s true and I thought that I’d talk about some other linen sheet sets that I’ve tested so that you can kind of get a basis for comparison.<\/p>\n
I recently tested linen sheet sets from both MagicLinen and Tuft & Needle.<\/p>\n
Both of those sheet sets have also undergone a garment washing process.<\/p>\n
Essentially it’s a textile manufacturing technique used to boost the softness of the material, as well as give the fabric a uniquely worn in aesthetic.<\/p>\n
That said, the proprietary technique of whipping and blasting these linen fibers with air, that we see in the Snowe Linen Sheet Set, is really giving it this unique, super soft, totally smooth feel.<\/p>\n
According to the folks at Snowe, this is meant to make these sheets feel like they’ve been line-drying on the Italian country side for the last hundred years, so you’re getting a totally smooth, not at all course or scratchy feel with the Snowe Linen Sheets.<\/p>\n
Now when it comes to the Tuft & Needle and Magic Linen, the garment washing process was different.<\/p>\n
It didn’t involve that proprietary technology, so you’re still left with a little bit of that course feel that is so characteristic of linen.<\/p>\n
So if we’re comparing, I do think that the linen sheet set from Snowe is softer in feel, but for those sleepers who prefer that distinctly rough texture that comes with linen, you might be better off with Magic Linen or Tuft & Needle.<\/p>\n
Now if you’ve been wondering about Snowe’s other bedding I also tested their Cotton Percale Sheet Set as well as their Sateen Cotton Sheet Set. Those offer completely different feels.<\/p>\n
They’re completely different materials as compared to the linen that we’re talking about here, but folks who really like that classic crisp feel are probably going to be more compatible with Snowe’s Percale bedding.<\/p>\n
Which is made from 100 percent long-staple Egyptian cotton, and you’re getting a very durable, really strong but also impeccably smooth feel, but also that great crisp breath-ability from the percale weave.<\/p>\n
Then with sateen, you’re getting a very light luster that comes from that weave style. You’re also getting much more of a silky hand feel.<\/p>\n
So at the end of the day bedding is really a matter of personal preference.<\/p>\n
