Description
This is our Hebden fitted sheet, made from 100% cotton percale and garment-washed so it arrives soft rather than crisp. Percale is a plain, tight weave, which is why a percale sheet feels smooth and cool against the skin and keeps that crispness wash after wash. The washing this one has had before it reaches you takes the starch out of that crispness and leaves a relaxed, lived-in handle from the first night. It comes in four sizes, from single through to super king, so you can match it to the bed you already have.
A fitted sheet is the layer you sleep directly on, so how it feels matters more here than on any other piece of bedding. This one suits anyone who prefers a soft, settled bed to a hotel-crisp one, and the washed finish means it sits happily with linen-look and stonewashed bedding rather than fighting a formal, pressed look. The denim blue is a muted, mid-toned grey-blue, an easy neutral that works with warm woods, off-whites and other soft blues and greys.
Being pure cotton, it is breathable and takes a warm machine wash without fuss, and the washed percale is forgiving of creasing, so you can pull it straight onto the bed without reaching for the iron. A fitted sheet has elasticated corners that grip the mattress and hold the sheet in place through the night. Check your mattress depth against the size you choose before ordering, as a deeper mattress needs a deeper sheet to stay put. It pairs naturally with the wider Hebden washed cotton range if you want the bed to read as one relaxed set.

Frequently Asked
What does garment-washed mean for how this sheet feels?
It means the sheet has been washed before sale to soften the weave, so it feels relaxed and lived-in straight away rather than stiff and crisp.
Is percale different from ordinary cotton?
Percale is a plain, tightly woven cotton with a smooth, cool feel. It is still pure cotton, so it stays breathable and washes well over time.
How do I choose the right size for my bed?
Pick the size that matches your mattress, from single to super king, and check the mattress depth so the elasticated corners hold the sheet in place.
Does this sheet need ironing?
The washed percale is forgiving of creasing, so most people find they can smooth it onto the bed and skip the iron entirely.
What colour is the sheet exactly?
It is a muted, mid-toned grey-blue, an easy neutral that sits well with warm woods, off-whites and other soft blues and greys.
