Can I mix cotton and bamboo bedding?
Absolutely. Many people layer the two, pairing the silky feel of cotton sheets with the structured drape of a cotton duvet cover, or swapping seasonally depending on how they want the bed to feel. There is no wrong way to build a bed you love.
What does cotton feel like compared to bamboo?
Our Soft-Wash Cotton is a sateen weave, so it feels smooth and soft with a subtle sheen and a little more body on the bed. It drapes naturally and holds its shape, with a grounded, substantial quality you can feel. Bamboo, by comparison, is lighter and more slippery, with a silky glide. Cotton lovers tend to prefer that bit of structure and the unmistakable feel of natural cotton bedding.
Does Soft-Wash cotton hold up well over time?
Yes. Long-staple cotton is prized for standing up to years of regular washing, growing softer with each cycle rather than wearing thin. Our Soft-Wash Cotton is finished to resist pilling and keep its smooth hand wash after wash, so it settles into your routine and stays a favorite for the long run.
