10 Bamboo Sheets That Will Make You Break Up with Cotton
"Hearst Magazines and Yahoo may earn commission or revenue on some items through these links."
As the weather changes, you may be wondering if it's time to set aside your cooling comforter and opt for cozier options. But unlike linen bedding that works especially well in summer and can lack in the winter, the best bamboo sheets work all year round, keeping you cool on warm nights and toasty in the winter. "Bamboo tends to be softer than cotton sheets, and they have moisture-wicking properties that can help keep you cooler while you sleep," Kelsi Hickens, head of design and product development for soft lines at Cozy Earth, told Bazaar.
Along with its moisture-wicking capabilities, bamboo bedding is also temperature-regulating, hypoallergenic, and just as soft as your favorite silk sheets. Not to mention, bamboo sheets are considered a more eco-friendly option than mulberry silk, which relies on silk worms, or even cotton, which requires far more water to produce than bamboo. All of this means that bamboo sheets are a great option for everyone, including people with sensitive skin, allergies, hot sleepers, and anyone concerned with their bedding's environmental impact. Here, you can shop the 10 best bamboo sheets on the market that will make you a convert.
