Egyptian Cotton Oxford Pillowcase 1000 TC - Airforce Blue

Egyptian cotton has extra-long staple fibers, which means fewer, shorter fibers are needed to spin a yarn. This results in stronger, smoother, and more durable yarns, leading to softer and more luxurious fabric that resists pilling.

A higher thread count generally indicates a denser and smoother fabric. The 1000 thread count in this pillowcase creates a dense, luxurious feel that is both soft and durable, contributing to a more comfortable sleep experience.

A sateen weave is characterized by its smooth, lustrous surface and a soft hand-feel. It typically has more warp than weft yarns on the surface, creating a subtle sheen and a comfortable drape, contrasting with a more matte percale weave.

This is an Oxford pillowcase, designed to fit standard UK pillows. Please check the dimensions if you use non-standard pillow sizes.

The product title specifies 'Pack of 2' for this particular variant, meaning you will receive two pillowcases.

It is generally recommended to wash pillowcases weekly to maintain hygiene and remove body oils, sweat, and dead skin cells. Follow the specific care instructions to preserve the fabric's quality.

Yes, Homescapes explicitly states that their single-ply, combed yarns become even softer with every wash, unlike fabrics made with twisted yarns.

This is normal due to the crisp nature of high-quality, tightly woven cotton. Wash the pillowcase according to the care instructions before use to soften the fabric.

Ensure you are washing dark colours separately and using a gentle cycle on your washing machine. Avoid using harsh detergents or excessive bleach.

Check if the pillowcase is getting caught on sharp objects or if the washing machine load is too heavy, causing friction. Ensure proper care and avoid washing with abrasive items.
