The Pillowcases | Supima Sateen

The vast majority of bed linens are created from long-staple cotton, we create ours from 100% Supima extra-long-staple cotton. In other words, we use better raw materials. From this superior raw material, we create a 430 thread count sateen weave which is simply sublime. Most regular bed linens will have a considerably lower thread count. Finally, the bed linens are sewn by skilled textile artisans in a family-owned factory in Portugal that has been around since 1948. The quality of the craftsmanship is extraordinary.

All in all, the feeling of getting into bed at night is amazing. It is like climbing into a bed at a luxury boutique hotel. Describing a feeling is difficult, but read the reviews at the bottom, and you’ll see that almost all customers agree

At Juniper we trust that delivering a superior product at a better price will make people talk about our bed linens and recommend it to their friends so that we can spend less money on marketing per each new customer.

The short answer is, yes most likely.

As long as you are not in the market for completely different style weaves such as linen or flannel we are confident that our bed linens are right for you.

In fact, we are so confident that these bed linens are right for you that you can buy our bed linens and try them in the comfort of your own home for 30 days.

And if you, for any reason, don’t want to keep the bed linens, we will take them back and issue a full refund. As simple as that.

Thread count is calculated by adding the numbers of lengthwise (warp) and widthwise (weft) threads within a square inch of fabric. A more tightly woven fabric will generally feel softer, given everything else is the same. When Juniper was first started, we prototyped various thread counts and had a group of people try the different products. More than four out of five people in that group indicated they preferred a thread count in the 400-500 range, so we listened to their advice and created bed linens with a 430 thread count. They are supremely soft but because of the Extra Long Staple cotton breathe really well so you can sleep throughout the night without becoming too hot.

Not all kinds of cotton are equal. Supima and regular cotton are, in fact, two different species of cotton. The most common type of cotton grown worldwide typically has a fiber length of only about 1 inch, whereas Supima cotton’s fiber averages 1.5 inches. Shorter fibers produce yarns that are rougher and subject to pilling on the surface of the product, while longer fibers contribute to strength and softness. Supima cotton is grown at 500 primarily family-owned farms mainly located in California. It represents less than 2% of cotton grown worldwide and is the most expensive widely commercially available cotton in the world due to its high quality standards and commitment to sustainable farming.

Even if you use the bed linens every day, you should comfortably expect to get more than five years of use out of them if you take care of them properly. Our general recommendation would be two have two sets at home per bed, meaning you should be able to have them around for ten years.
