Description

Our fitted sheets feature a strong elastic band that spans the entire sheet. The elastic band is encased in the bottom seam with a high density stitch to ensure that it retains strength through a lifetime of washing and use.

The 16" pockets on our fitted sheets are finished with a flat felled seam that is tacked down at the top corner. This protectsÂ the weaker edges of the fabric and reinforces the corners that receive the highest amount of wear. Our fitted sheets will fit mattresses up to 20" deep comfortably.

Fabric

When thread count became all the rage, we were disappointed with some of the gimmicks that were being used to declare absurdly high thread counts. Especially in percale fabrics. Thread count is simply a measurement of how many threads are in one square inch of fabric. A percale is a plain weave (or 1-over-1 structure) it is very challenging to weave a percale in very high thread counts; you can only pack so many threads into one square inch!

We love percale, so we decided to make the highest thread count percale possible using a very thin 100 singles cotton yarn. This is why we called it Tru(e). It is indeed a true 400 thread count percale with a light soft crispness that makes for a wonderful sleep.

Care Details

Wash

Wash should be separated into light & dark colors. Do not overload machine as this will damage long cotton fibers. We recommend a lukewarm wash cycle with a gentle detergent & a cool rinse.

Bleach may be used on white cotton bed linens only. Avoid using products that contain whitening agents such as chlorine bleach, alpha hydroxy acids and benzoyl peroxide on garment-dyed items. The reactive dyes used for garment-dyeing are not resistant to these whitening agents.

Learn more about Garment-Dyeing.

Drying

Tumble dry with low heat.Remove bed linens promptly from the machine to reduce wrinkling. For best results, line dry.

Ironing

We at MATTEO tend to prefer a lived-in look, as such, you don't find us ironing our sheets too frequently. If you prefer a crisp looking bed, our cotton bed linens should be pressed while slightly damp using the Lightweight Cotton or Medium setting.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the thread count and weave of the Tru Fitted Sheet?

The Tru Fitted Sheet is 100% cotton in a percale weave with a true 400 thread count. Percale is a plain, 1-over-1 structure, and 400 threads per square inch is the upper limit of what this weave can physically hold — which is exactly why we named it Tru. The result is a light, softly crisp hand that holds up wash after wash.

What does 'garment-washed' mean for a percale cotton fitted sheet?

Garment-washing means the Tru Fitted Sheet is washed after construction, not before. This pre-softens the 100% cotton percale so it arrives with a relaxed hand rather than the stiff finish common in unwashed sheets. All dyeing is done using non-toxic dyes, so the color is set into the fiber without harsh chemical treatments. You can read more about the process at matteola.com/garment-dyeing.

Will the Tru Fitted Sheet fit a deep mattress?

The Tru Fitted Sheet has 16-inch pockets and fits mattresses up to 20 inches deep comfortably. The elastic band spans the entire perimeter of the sheet and is encased in the bottom seam with a high-density stitch, so it holds its shape and tension through repeated washing. Exact dimensions by size: King 78 x 80 x 16 in., Cal-King 72 x 84 x 16 in., Queen 60 x 80 x 16 in., Full 54 x 75 x 16 in., Twin 39 x 75 x 16 in.

How should I wash and dry the Tru Fitted Sheet to preserve the cotton percale?

Wash lights and darks separately in a lukewarm cycle with gentle detergent and a cool rinse. Do not overload the machine, as overcrowding stresses long cotton fibers. Tumble dry on low heat and remove promptly to reduce wrinkling, or line dry for best results. If you prefer a crisp finish, press while slightly damp on the Lightweight Cotton or Medium iron setting.

Is the Tru Fitted Sheet good for hot sleepers?

Percale's plain 1-over-1 weave is more open than sateen, which makes it more breathable and cooler against the skin. The 100% cotton construction pulls moisture away from the body, and the garment-washing process gives the fabric a slightly lived-in texture that continues to soften with use. If you run warm at night, percale cotton is a practical choice over heavier sateen or flannel weaves.

Is the Tru Fitted Sheet a good option for people with sensitive skin?

The Tru Fitted Sheet is made from 100% cotton with no synthetic blends, and all dyeing uses non-toxic dyes without chlorine bleach or harsh whitening agents. Cotton percale at 400 thread count sits smooth against the skin without the roughness of lower thread counts. For garment-dyed colors, avoid washing with products containing chlorine bleach, alpha hydroxy acids, or benzoyl peroxide, as these can degrade the reactive dyes.

How does the Tru Fitted Sheet compare to luxury hotel-quality bed sheets?

Hotels favor percale cotton for its durability, ease of laundering, and consistent crisp feel after repeated washing — the same properties built into the Tru Fitted Sheet. The 400 thread count percale uses a fine 100-singles cotton yarn, and the flat felled seam construction at each corner pocket reinforces the areas that take the most wear. Designed and manufactured by MATTEO in Los Angeles, the Tru Fitted Sheet is made to the same material standard expected in high-quality hotel bedding, available for residential use.

Can I buy just the Tru Fitted Sheet, or does it only come as part of a sheet set?

The Tru Fitted Sheet is available as a standalone piece in Twin, Twin XL, Full, Queen, King, and Cal-King sizes across a range of colors including White, Off White, Greige, Mica, Oat, Iris, and others. Buying individual pieces lets you mix, replace, or build a set at your own pace. The Tru Fitted Sheet pairs with the Tru Flat Sheet and Tru Pillowcases to complete the full Tru collection.
