In a round-up of bedding materials, there’s a reason Egyptian cotton consistently ranks high on the list. Most of us have slept on regular-old cotton sheets at one time or another, but Egyptian cotton is in a class all its own. Luxurious and long-lasting, this material regularly exceeds expectations. At Pure Parima, we’re passionate about selling only sheets and duvet covers made from 100% Egyptian cotton. Keep reading to learn why you need this silky material in your life and in your bed.

It’s Soft

Tired of your sheets scratching and pilling? If you’re searching for the most comfortable bedding available, Egyptian cotton might be the answer. Fibers harvested from the Nile River Valley contain nutrients that contribute to a softer, stronger product. Additionally, Egyptian cotton features extra-long staple fibers. The end result is a sheet that’s smoother and softer to the touch.

It’s Breathable

As temperatures rise across the Northern Hemisphere, many of us are struggling to get a good night’s rest. After all, it’s hard to sleep when you’re hot and sweating. The good news is that swapping out your sheets can have a profound effect on your comfort. Unlike traditional cottons and fabric blends, pure Egyptian cotton is known for its breathability. Cool and moisture repellant, this fabric will help you stay dry no matter how high the mercury climbs. Additionally, sleeping on Egyptian cotton is proven to help alleviate allergies, preventing skin rashes and other symptoms that can interfere with your rest.

It’s Beautiful

Lower-quality sheets tend to fray and fade over the years. One of the benefits of buying Egyptian cotton is that it’s highly porous. As a result, sheets made from this substance absorb dyes more readily. If you want brilliantly colored sheets or duvet covers that add vibrance to any room, Egyptian cotton is a wise choice. 

It Lasts for Years

Cheaper sheets have a habit of wearing out. Over time, the color fades while the fabric pills and tears. The good news is that Egyptian cotton is made to last. Although you might spend a little more in the short term, this material is well worth the investment thanks to its quality and durability. Because the extra-long staple fibers are tightly woven, Egyptian cotton sheets last for years, provided that you take proper care of them. For best results, wash your sheets and duvet covers on the cold setting and then tumble dry them on low. You can also iron your Egyptian cotton sheets on the “Cotton” setting to achieve that fresh-from-the-box sheen.
