Percale Sheets vs Sateen Sheets: What's the Difference?

Choosing the perfect sheets can be tough, especially with so many options out there. But don't worry, we're here to help! Two popular choices are percale and sateen sheets, each with its own unique qualities.

Here, we'll break down the differences between them and talk about the different types of sheets, so you can ultimately decide which one is the ideal choice for you.

So, sit back, take cover under cozy duvets covers and get ready to learn about the best sheets for your next night's sleep!

Percale Weave vs Sateen Weave

Percale and sateen are two different types of weaves used in sheets. Percale weave is a simple one-over-one-under weave that creates a crisp, cool, and breathable fabric. On the other hand, sateen weave is a four-over-one-under weave that produces a smooth, silky, and luxurious fabric. The difference in weave affects the feel, durability, and appearance of the sheets.
