Matteo Tru Fitted Sheet

Percale is a plain, one-over-one-under weave that results in a matte finish and a crisp, cool-to-the-touch feel. Unlike sateen, which can feel silky or heavy, percale is breathable and lightweight, making it ideal if you tend to sleep hot.

Yes, this fitted sheet is designed with a 16-inch pocket depth. It is suitable for most standard and pillow-top mattresses, ensuring a secure fit that stays in place.

Garment washing is a process that softens the fabric before it ever reaches your bed. It gives the cotton a lived-in, relaxed texture right out of the package, rather than the stiff, starchy feel often associated with new percale sheets.

In the bedding industry, extremely high thread counts are often achieved by twisting multiple thin, lower-quality threads together, which can actually trap heat and reduce durability. A true 400 thread count uses single-ply yarns, providing the optimal balance of breathability, crispness, and long-term durability.

The Tru collection is specifically engineered with shrinkage control. While all natural cotton can experience minor movement after the first wash, this treatment helps maintain the sheet's shape and fit over time.

Yes, Matteo uses non-toxic dyes for the entire Tru collection. This ensures the fabric is free from harmful chemicals, making it a safer, healthier choice for your skin and your home environment.
