I ordered these in a dark grey. Queen size. It is more a medium grey. The size is true, meaning not too short or long for a queen size bed. 
These sheets are a very soft material with a light shine. They came well packaged and with quick delivery. I've had Aireolux sheets before and they hold the color well after years of washing. The sheets were extremely well packaged and would make a beautiful gift, as you can see by the pictures. 
I was not sure about the elastic banding since it is not what I usually see on a sheet, but time will tell if it stands up to a restless sleeper. I believe it will do just nicely.
I do highly recommend this set.
