What is the difference between percale and sateen cotton?
Percale and sateen are two different weave structures of cotton with a distinctly different feel. Percale is fresh, firm and breathable - ideal for warm sleepers. Sateen is softer and shinier but less breathable. The Tuur® Fitted Sheet is woven in percale for optimal ventilation and durability.
• Percale: tight cross weave = cool, firm, long-lasting and easy to care for
• Sateen: diagonal weave = softer and glossy feel, but warmer and less durable
