    Frequently Asked Questions

    What fabric is the Nap Swatch made from?

    The Nap Swatch is 100% extra-long staple cotton in a percale weave, 225 thread count, garment-washed and dyed with non-toxic dyes. It is the same fabric used in MATTEO's best-selling hotel percale bedding line.

    How does the Nap percale feel compared to higher thread count sheets?

    Nap uses a "quattro-quaranta" (4-by-40) weave construction, with 40's single-strand yarn at 40 threads per centimeter in both the warp and weft, producing a balanced, durable fabric with a crisp finish. Thread count alone does not determine quality; this 225-thread-count percale gets softer with every wash and outlasts many higher-count alternatives.

    How large is the Nap Swatch and which colors are available?

    Each swatch is 10 x 10 inches (25 x 25 cm) and is available in 15 MATTEO colors, including White, Off White, Greige, Moon, Oat, Salt, Iris, Mica, Bay, Alpine, Coal, Fig, Bark, Night, and Smoke.

    How should I care for Nap percale bedding after ordering the full product?

    Wash light and dark colors separately in a lukewarm cycle with gentle detergent and a cool rinse; do not overload the machine, as this can damage the long cotton fibers. Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly, or line dry for best results. Bleach is safe on white cotton only; avoid chlorine bleach, alpha hydroxy acids, and benzoyl peroxide on garment-dyed colors.
