Sateen is woven with a higher proportion of vertical threads, which gives the fabric a noticeably smoother, silkier hand-feel and a subtle luster. Unlike the crisp, matte finish of percale, these sheets will feel softer and slightly heavier against the skin.

These sheets are machine washable and dryable, making them easy to maintain. To preserve the sheen and softness, wash them in cool to warm water on a gentle cycle and tumble dry on low heat.

The patterns are designed to be colorfast, but like all high-quality cotton bedding, you should avoid harsh detergents or bleach to keep the colors vibrant. Washing in cold water and avoiding high-heat drying will help maintain the integrity of the stripes over time.

Cotton sateen is generally breathable, but because of its tighter weave and smooth finish, it tends to drape closer to the body and retain slightly more warmth than a looser percale weave. If you are an extremely hot sleeper, you may find them cozy, but they are generally comfortable for year-round use.
