Bed Sheets That Keep You Cool

Believe it or not, the qualities of your bed linens can mean the difference between nightly tossing and turning from hot flashes and sleeping peacefully, cool as a cucumber. Whether you are looking for bed sheets that can keep you cooler year-round or just in spring and summer, there are plenty of sheets to choose amongst.

Cool Sheets for Comfortable Sleep

Don't sweat over buying your next set of sheets. Investigate cool material technologies, find out why they work and where you can find them before you buy.

Nano-Tex

Nano-Tex uses nanotechnology to transform the molecular structure of fibers creating superior fabrics with properties such as odor resistance, fabric breathability and moisture resistance. Nano-Tex Coolest Comfort sheets have an advanced moisture-wicking system that helps to regulate your body temperature. Nano-Tex sheets (available in standard sizes) range in price from $10 for a pillowcase to $170 for a comforter set and can be purchased from several worldwide retailers including Walmart, Overstock.com and Amazon.com.

Marketing and Branding for the Sleep Products Industry

Cool Sensations

Cool Sensations bed linens claim to whisk away perspiration and evaporate any moisture from the bedding reducing nighttime discomfort due to overheating. Their DermaTherapy fabric is especially marketed toward women going through menopause who experience consistent hot flashes and night sweats. Cool Sensations bedding can be purchased through the company's website or at Sears and Amazon.com, and range in price from $15 for a standard pillowcase to $200 for a king-sized sheets set.

Outlast

Outlast bedding utilizes a unique technology that proactively manages the heat and moisture levels over the course of a night's sleep. The Outlast products are desirable for both menopausal women and simply "thermally incompatible" couples. This particular bedding option doesn't just wick away moisture, but regulates the sleeping environment to alleviate discomfort from temperature spikes. By balancing the skin's temperature it prevents moisture from even making an appearance. You can buy Outlast bedding (available in standard sizes) from many online retailers, such as CoolingMattress.com and Amazon.com. Prices range from $40 for a pillowcase to over $430 for a Cal-king bedding set.

Nidraa

Nidraa products use a blend of synthetic and natural fibers to quickly wick away any moisture and cool the skin's temperature. The patented Dri-Release material with Fresh Guard treatment can be washed without losing its moisture-controlling abilities. You can buy Nidraa bedding at retailers such as ComfortTherapy.com and DriNights.com. Sheet sets are available in all the standard sizes and range in price from $25 for a pillowcase to $140 for a king sheets set.

Quality Bedding Means Quality Sleep

Invest in natural-fiber sheets that demonstrate moisture-wicking qualities. Bamboo fiber is a quick drying, soft fabric that is very breathable and moisture resistant. Cotton or linen also has natural properties that may help keep you cool. The linen fiber, similar to hemp, has a hollow core, which provides good insulation and a breathable fiber. Silk is another natural option for bedding that will help you stay cool at night because its both breathable and has the ability to wick moisture away from your body (though it tends to be more expensive than bamboo, linen or hemp). Depending on thread count and brand, natural fiber sheets sets will run you between $40 (bamboo twin set) to upwards of $400 (high-quality silk king set).

Getting a good night's sleep is important for your health. Finding the right type of bedding can make a big difference in the quality of sleep you get.
