Why Cariloha Sheets Are The Most Luxurious Bamboo Sheets

You need Cariloha sheets in your life. Seriously. A few weeks ago, my husband found a crazy great Cyber Monday deal on a King size memory foam mattress and (after checking in with me), bought it on a whim! While he was probably only thinking about the bed and the deal, my mind went into high-speed logistic-mode, thinking of all the things I had to do to make this work! With just the right timing, I needed to sell our Queen size mattress and bed frame, or at least get them out of the house just when the new mattress arrived, figure out what to do with all our Queen size linens, order a new mattress protector, and most importantly, get a hold of some new King size sheets! Having worked with Cariloha Bamboo before, and already being a huge fan of their bamboo sheets, they were the first place I turned to! At no cost to facilitate this review, they sent their new Resort Bamboo Bed Sheets in Shoreline Gray and a sweet pair of bamboo socks!

Cariloha Sheets

These sheets are luxurious in every sense of the word! Classic sheets are up to 230 thread count, and these are made from 320 thread count bamboo sateen. The thread count has to do with the number of threads per square inch of fabric, which goes to show just how tight and smooth the surface feels! Bamboo is remarkably soft and smooth and in my opinion, completely ideal as a bed sheet because of its natural qualities. Bamboo is 3 degrees cooler than cotton, so they feel quite cool when you first slip into them. Don't they sound great year round? I love cool sheets and warm blankets in the winter, and staying cool in warmer weather is going to be easier in this bamboo. This material also wicks away moisture away from your body, and I can completely attest to this after sleeping on these for a few weeks. Throughout this pregnancy, I've woken up in the middle of the night quite sweaty and warm, but since we've switched to these Cariloha Bamboo sheets, I haven't woken up uncomfortably once. We are sleeping so well and really enjoying the smooth and unique feel of these sheets on our bed!

This Cariloha sheets set includes one flat sheet, one fitted sheet, and 2 pillowcases so that your entire bed can coordinate. The fitted sheet fits a mattress up to 18" deep, so we had no problem at all fitting it smoothly around our thick memory foam mattress.

I also really, really love my new Bamboo Ankle Softy Socks in Creme. Being one-size-fits-all, I wondered if they would be droopy on my size 6 feet, but they conform beautifully. The knitting is crisp, and they look designer to me! There are 28 grippies on the bottom that keep you from sliding around on slick floors, but they aren't too thick or stiff to be noticeable when you are walking in them.

My absolute favorite feature on these socks is the enclosed elastic around the top ankle. This elastic is thick -- probably ½", and while they feel great on my ankles, making the socks feel secure, I imagine they might be a little too tight on those with thick ankles. They really are moisture-wicking, a natural quality of bamboo, and they keep my feet cool and dry (but still very warm) inside slippers and boots. They feel practically water-repellent! I was filling up our iron with more distilled water and spilled some all over my feet and the floor, but I could basically flick the water drops off my socks and they were still completely dry.

Bamboo claims to be twice as soft as cotton, and I have to say that I agree. They're like pillows on my feet. These are also odor and allergen resistant, and perfect for those who suffer from skin irritation. Currently, they're my all-time favorite socks and I'd wear them every day if I could wash them fast enough!

Based on how much I love these sheets and socks, I'm anxious to try basically anything and everything from Cariloha Bamboo. Their blankets, bath mats, towels, and a huge assortment of clothing for men and women are calling my name.

Buy it: You can purchase the Resort Bamboo Bed Sheets in eight different colors for $239-$259 based on your bed size, and the Bamboo Ankle Softy Socks for $15.
