Leo Percale™ Sheets
Leo Percale™ Sheets
Sweet dreams start here.
We worked tirelessly to make the perfect percale cotton bed sheets, and here's why they are better than every other cotton sheet you've slept on.
Crop: Long-staple cotton
The cotton plants we use produce a long-staple cotton, which is the same thing as Egyptian cotton, just without the fancy name.
It means that the plants we harvest our cotton from have the natural ability to grow fibers that are stronger, longer and softer than regular cotton.
Our cotton sheets are OEKO-TEX® certified.
Yarn: Thread count
Long gone are the days of cramming thousands of thick, short threads into a fabric to claim a higher thread count to make it sound more luxurious. Now, we know that the quality of fibers is what makes the material feel soft and luxurious.
The long-staple cotton yarns we use have fewer exposed ends, which makes them easier to weave. As a result, we only need to use 270 threads to get a luxuriously smooth fabric that’s more breathable than high-thread materials. Because of that, our sheets are softer, more durable, and sleep cooler.
Weave: Percale weave
Unlike our luxuriously smooth Eva Sateen sheets, the Leo Percale sheets feature a classic Percale weave. Crafted with a one-over, one-under weave, this technique creates a crisp, cool fabric ideal for hot sleepers. While not as shiny as sateen, percale offers a beautiful matte finish that exudes a timeless elegance.

Elastic Corners
Our fitted sheets are made with extra wide ribbed elastic in each corner, which helps keep the sheet snug on the mattress all night long. This prevents the sheet from riding up or bunching up, so you can enjoy a smooth and comfortable sleep.
We know how frustrating it can be to wake up in the middle of the night with your sheet bunched up or riding up around your waist. That's why we designed our fitted sheets with extra wide ribbed elastic to provide a secure fit that will keep your sheet in place all night long.

Extra Wide Ribbed Elastic
Our fitted sheets are made with deep fitted sides and extra wide ribbed elastic that hugs your mattress and stays in place. They also have a handy end-of-bed marker so you can easily tell which way is up (or down).
Sustainable Cotton
Our commitment to sustainability drives us to exclusively employ premium Fair-Trade cotton in crafting our bedding. This cotton is certified by the esteemed Better Cotton Initiative, reflecting our dedication to supporting sustainable cotton farming and minimizing our ecological footprint on the planet.
The benefits
Naturally cotton
Cotton is naturally hypoallergenic and odor-resistant. To help maintain the natural integrity of the cotton, we don't use any harsh dyes or chemicals during the production of our sheets. Our cotton fibers are breathable yet absorbent, soft yet durable, and really easy to maintain.
Comfort is key
We don’t use any harsh chemicals in order to artificially soften our cotton. Like a new pair of jeans, your cotton sheets will soften even further with time to be uniquely yours.
Care, less
Cotton is really easy to care for. Since most of your clothing is probably cotton too, you’ll already have a good grasp of knowing how to care for it.
Breathable
Cotton will absorb the heat from your body throughout the night, allowing you to stay cool and dry. If you’re sleeping in synthetic materials, like polyester, they will absorb your body heat rather than naturally ventilating, so the fabric will retain your heat and you’ll have that stuffy feeling.
Sustainability
No nasties
We believe that nature knows what's best, so we only use natural fibers to make our sheets. Natural fibers need to be treated gently in the processing to preserve all of their best features, so we don't use any harsh dyes or chemical treatments. All of our sheets are pre-washed as part of our manufacturing process, so when they arrive at your door you can throw them straight on your bed.
Farmed, not manufactured
As our cotton is made of a natural fiber, it means it's farmed rather than manufactured. Farming has a positive impact on the environment compared to using synthetic fabrics which are manufactured. Our cotton plants are picked each season and can continue growing, helping to reduce their environmental impact.
Biodegradable and recyclable
Cotton sheets are not only remarkably durable, they're also biodegradable. When you're ready to say goodbye, they'll break down naturally.
Fair-Trade certified
We pride ourselves on utilizing certified Fair-Trade materials, backed by accreditations from BCI and OEKO-TEX®. These materials have been thoroughly examined and confirmed to be free from any harmful chemicals.
