These Aireolux 1000 Thread Count Pillow Cases are amazing. I've owned brushed egyptian cotton towels before but never bed linens. I'm amazed at how soft and smooth they are, and best of all, they stay cool and breathable all night. I have gotten so used to synthetic fabrics that I forgot how nice real, high quality cotton is. I was so impressed with these pillowcases that I went ahead and purchased the matching sheet set. Highly recommend!
