Organic Cotton Pillowcases

A pillowcase is against your face for about a third of your life, which is more contact than any other fabric you own gets with your skin.Off-the-shelf cases are cut for thin department store pillows, so they grip a full one like a casing and flatten the height you just paid for. Ours are sewn to the same dimensions we sew the pillows to, Standard through King, so the case fits the pillow the way the pillow sits.The yarn is spun fine and even, and the sateen weave floats it across the face so your cheek and your hair move over it instead of catching. It stays cool, and it softens with every wash rather than thinning. The count is 300, which sits near the top of what a square inch of cotton will physically hold. The color is the cotton's own rather than a dye bath.It slips on, so nothing hard sits in the space where your face goes. Sold in pairs, sewn in New Jersey. The sateen carries Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) certification under license GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth, and the license is public so you can check it yourself.
