Details about our American-made sheets

  • Are your sheets 100% Cotton?

    Yes! Our sheets are made from 100% certified Supima® cotton. Supima is only grown in America and is 45% stronger and softer than normal upland cotton. It is also finer than Egyptian cotton, 90% of which is fake. Less than 1% of global cotton meets the quality requirements to be labeled 100% certi...

  • Are your sheets organic?

    We know people love organic products. We love them too! When shopping for groceries we try to get organic produce when available. So what about Authenticity50 sheets, are they organic?

  • Percale vs Sateen. Which sheets are right for me?

    We believe that the Percale weave, when done right with the right manufacturers and cotton, simply can't be beat. There's a reason all the top luxury hotels use Percale sheets. It's more durable, sleeps cooler, regulates temperature efficiently, and has a fabulously crisp hand feel that we LOVE. ...

In order to create high quality sheets, you need to use the finest cotton and work with...
