Question 1

How does Linen compare to Percale?

Accepted Answer

Linen is airy and breathable with a natural texture and a relaxed drape. Percale has a tight, structured weave that feels cool and crisp to the touch, and tents around the body for airflow.

Question 2

Do Linen sheets sleep hot?

Accepted Answer

No. Our Linen fabric is highly breathable, moisture-wicking, and temperature-regulating, helping prevent overheating by promoting airflow. It feels light and airy against the body and layers comfortably year-round.

Question 3

What is the thread count of Boll & Branch Linen sheets?

Accepted Answer

Boll & Branch Linen sheets have a 100 thread count. Linen fiber is naturally thicker than cotton, so a lower thread count is inherent to the fabric, not a reflection of quality. Our linen is crafted from 100% European Flax™, a certification that guarantees the flax is grown and processed in Europe under strict quality and environmental standards.

Question 4

Is 100 thread count good for linen sheets?

Accepted Answer

Yes. For linen, 100 thread count is exactly where a premium sheet should be. Unlike cotton, linen's thicker fibers mean thread count isn't a reliable quality indicator. An unusually high thread count in linen can actually signal overprocessing or blending. Our linen also undergoes a proprietary wash process that makes it naturally softer than most, without compromising its renowned breathability and cooling properties.

Question 5

Is a higher thread count always better?

Accepted Answer

Not for linen. Thread count is not the right measuring stick for linen sheets. Fiber origin, fabric weight, and finishing process are far more meaningful indicators of quality. Boll & Branch Linen is crafted from 100% European Flax™ and finished to be softer and more breathable than most linens on the market regardless of thread count.

Question 6

Do Boll & Branch linen sheets wrinkle?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Because our Linen sheets are made with 100% European Flax™ and are never treated with wrinkle-resistant chemicals, light wrinkling is completely normal.
To help minimize wrinkles:
Shake sheets out before drying
Remove promptly and smooth by hand while slightly damp
Lightly mist with water to help the fibers relax
No coatings. No shortcuts. Just beautifully made sheets that soften and relax over time.
