I dont know how to imbed a link. But anyone ever try these sheets...

When I was at the store I was able to feel a small sample and they really do feel cool and smooth. I was offered a free set of sheets when I bought my BR mattress set and I wanted those but she wouldn't budge on that (I got an el crappo set, figures.) I am still thinking of trying these. I can't find reviews anywhere and no one else seems to make them except the S-store. If I hadn't felt them w/ my own little hands I would be skeptical but they felt awesome. Sleeping on them is another story, of course. |
| Thanks Jim, feeling pretty good about these. Would you say they are good at not getting too hot? |

| they do take a while to get, when we run out of stock it takes about 4 weeks to get them. and we are very close to the manufacturer, everything these guys make is essentially done custom. they buy the fabric in bulk and make the sheet sets themselves where as most sheets are already imported as completed sets and readily distributed. |
| thanks Budgy!! |

I currently live without air conditioning, and sleep on the 2nd floor. If you want really low price, and "cool", the cotton sheets sold by Family Dollar really are not bad. They are thin, and cost $15 for full, $20 for queen, or thereabouts. They have a hard finish, and I bought the taupe and the olive green and they wash up well and didn't fade. Excellent for cheap sheets, I think. But very thin. I really liked them when it was sweltering hot up there. I really can't stand microfiber, sateen weaves, sueded finishes, jersey, or about 95% of what's out there on the shelves. I am so glad that I have a huge stockpile of old percales, lol.

| "Outlast" sheets are mostly polyester and polyester is not cool and there is no reason they should be so expensive |
| If your mattress pad makes you feel lik eyou are in Iraq in july , your sheets will become irrelevant so make sure your mattress pad is 100% cotton inside and out. Outlast seems like a scam to me . there is nothing about their materials that would make them cool. |
| Egyption cotton is probably the best alternative for sheets . Egyption cotton sheets , unlike other types of cotton sheets, don't need to have high thread counts in order to be soft .300TC Egyption cotton sheets will be more breathable and cooler than non - egyption 600 TC sheets. |
