[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]i love my sheets from Comphy[/quote] Can not believe anyone would pay that price for microfiber! OP - That thick luxurious feel you’re looking for is what is found with high thread count sheets, which are cotton sateen. Cotton percale sheets, as others have suggested, will become very soft after washing, but they will not be thick. Percale sheets are lower thread count, usually not more than 300 max. My guess is that your current Kate Spade sheets are a low quality cotton percale since you describe them as scratchy. Many people find even high quality percale to be scratchy. After cotton sateen and cotton percale, you have microfiber, which is basically just polyester. It will have a heavier feel than cotton percale, but since polyester doesn’t breathe, you’ll probably end up sweating through the night unless you sleep cold. Beyond cotton sateen and microfiber, if you’re looking for a luxurious, heavy feeling you could probably try satin or actual silk, but I’ll be honest, I have zero experience with those. Is there a reason you don’t want cotton sateen? Cotton sateen is most likely what is going to fit your criteria. If you’re dead set against sateen, I would recommend percale sheets from The Company Store. They’re a nice crisp sheet. But again, not what I would describe as heavy or luxurious. [/quote]
