So here’s the scenario. You’re shopping online for 500 thread count luxury cotton sheets. There’s a lot of noise out there about thread count and which cotton sheets are the best fit for you. How do you decipher which thread count and set of luxury cotton bed sheets really are the best?

Let the owner of Thomas Lee Sheets, Elizabeth Zook, break it down for you.

“A true 500-thread count simply means that when examined under magnification, each square inch of our luxury cotton sheets will have 500 threads,” explained Elizabeth.

So you may be thinking, the higher the thread count, the better the sheet?

“Well, it’s not that simple. You need to determine what yarn was used and how the cotton sheet was woven,” said Elizabeth. “Thicker plied yarn results in a weave that is not as dense, and the result is a fabric that has a much rougher, less comfortable feel.”

What About Luxury Cotton Sheets vs. Sateen Sheets?

Aside from thread count, customers should also be wary of sateen sheets. Sateen sheets may seem like a comparable alternative to luxury cotton sheets, but in reality, sateen sheets are woven with four threads over 1. This means that after a few washings, the sheets will pill and soon become limp and raggy feeling.

“Our Thomas Lee 100% Pima cotton PerfectCale sheets, with a balanced percale weave, provide long-lasting comfort and durability. Our luxury cotton sheets won’t pill when you follow our special laundering instructions. That’s The Thomas Lee Difference,” stated Elizabeth.
