Summer is fast approaching, and with it heat waves. You certainly don't want
your sheets trapping heat while you're burning up outside.
What's up, world? It's Tony and I made a list of the
best sheets for summer time! You can find all of these sheets with written reviews over
at mattressclarity.com. And if you want to get some of these sheets to
beat the heat, I've got some coupons for you in the description box below.
Let's get started.
No need to travel to the icy Arctic to find a cool set of
sheets. Our Editor's pick are the Serta Arctic sheets.
They are made with a triple blend of fabric of Tencel, which is breathable
and moisture wicking, cooling nylon, and Serta's Coolmax
polyester. Altogether, these materials have been designed to maximize
cooling while you use them. They'll feel really super soft and
even cool to the touch. They have a 400 thread
count, which is fairly breathable. My favorite thing about these sheets is that
they have a cotton sheets that will fit mattresses up to 18 inches tall.
So if you tossed and turn like I do, that fitted sheet is not going
anywhere. You can test these sheets out for 120 days, and if you
decide to keep them, you get a one year limited warranty. Serta only
sells these sheets in white, but they still look really classy on a bed.
If you live in a humid climate, night sweats are the enemy of a cool
night of sleep. So if you want a moisture-wicking set of sheets,
turn to the Helix Tencel sheets. This is made from 100%
Tencel, which is derived from eucalyptus, which is known to
be breathable and moisture-wicking meaning you won't feel hot and sweaty
underneath these sheets. Helix prides itself on making an eco-friendly
set of sheets, too. The Tencel used in these sheets requires less water
to grow, and it's sustainably sourced. The fitted sheet has
some of the deepest pockets I've seen. It can fit mattresses up to
22 inches tall. I don't know who's sleeping
on a 22 inch tall bed, but if you have one, these are great for
you. They also feel really super soft to the touch,
so if you suffer from night sweats, these are a sheet to look at.
Breathability is key when you're looking for a set of sheets for the summertime.
Casper's Hyperlite sheets are a perfect example of this.
They're another set made from Tencel, but they're thinner and they have a
lower thread count, which means there's tons of room for air to flow through
the sheets. Hot Sleepers, if you're prone to overheating, look at
this thinner set of sheets. Because they're also cool to the touch.
These sheets can fit mattresses up to 17 inches tall.
And if you're looking for color options, Casper's got a few to pick from which
they will select certain colors throughout the year to discount.
Cotton is a great breathable material, too, but there's a set of cotton
sheets out there that will actively work to keep you cool.
The Sleep Number True Temp sheets. They feature something
called 37.5 Active Particle Technology and this is what's
going to work to keep you cool when you start to overheat. This will
actively dissipate body heat away from you, keeping you at a comfortable
temperature. Plus, if you're a cotton fan, you just have that crisp cotton feel
that you know and love.
But if you don't love that crisp cotton field to sheets,
bamboo is a great way to go. My favorite bamboo sheets
for the summertime are the Puffy Bamboo sheets. They're made from 100%
bamboo viscose, which is going to feel much softer and satin like over
cotton. Like Tencel, it is also moisture-wicking
so you won't sleep hot and sweaty underneath these sheets.
These are the set of sheets that I use when I'm not testing sheets now
and I love them because of how soft they feel. And as a textbook hot
sleeper, I am never hot underneath these sheets. So if you're like me
and don't love that crisp cotton feel of sheets, These are a great set to
look at. Let's take some
time to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about sheets for the
summertime. First question, what type of sheets are good for
the summer? Overall, you want a combination of breathability and moisture-
wicking. Tencel is a great option for this, because it
has both of those properties and most of the sheets on this list were made
from this material. But cotton and bamboo are also great
options because of their accessibility, breathability and moisture wicking
properties too. Second question, are higher thread count sheets
hotter? Because thread count refers to the number of threads woven
into a square inch of fabric. The higher the thread count, the more threads
woven into a square inch. Shades with a higher thread
count tend to sleep hotter, because there's not a lot of room for air to
flow through those threads. Final question,
are cooling sheets worth it? In a word,
Yes! I know tons of hot sleepers and I am one myself.
And when I sleep too hot, I can never get a good night of sleep.
So investing in a set of sheets that's been designed to keep you cool
Is totally worth it. Say goodbye to night sweats and sleep
cool. Any of the sheets on this list will do that for you.
There you have it. Our the best sheets for summer. Remember,
you can find all of these sheets with written reviews over mattressclarity.com.
