I don't buy new sheets often, so when I do, I'm picky. I really like that these sheets feel very substantial and of high quality. It really seems true to the high thread count. They definitely seem like they will hold up to long-term use. They washed well (only washed and dried them once so far). I was surprised that they weren't really wrinkly after coming out of the drier like some other sheets can be. I think they feel very soft and love the classic white style.
