microfiber sheets

Soft polyester linens

Microfiber sheets are bed linens made from extremely fine synthetic fibers, typically polyester or a polyester-nylon blend.

The tightly woven material feels soft and silky, resists wrinkles, and dries quickly.

Microfiber is marketed as an affordable alternative to high-thread-count cotton, though some find synthetic sheets trap heat or feel less breathable: I switched to microfiber sheets because they're so easy to care for.
