The 15 Best Cooling Bed Sheets of 2024, Tested and Scientifically Backed By Editors
By Sydney Meister
BECAUSE “NO SWEAT” IS OUR SLEEP MANTRA
If the mere thought of cocooning in heavy sheets makes you sweat, but sleeping on top of them isn’t an option (you’re not an animal), then it might be time to upgrade with cooling bedding items that are specifically designed to regulate your body temperature. Of course, if you have the budget, you’ll want to splurge on a temperature-regulating mattress, moisture-wicking topper and NASA-approved cooling comforter.
But the easiest, most affordable way to lower your bed temp during warmer months? A really crisp set of sheets. Not only are these designed with thermoregulating, sweat-proof threads, but thanks to new weaving tech, they’re also able to increase ventilation and breathability throughout the night. Still skeptical (how could these sheets actually cool you)?
This editor spent hours of research, sifting through studies that scientifically proved: bamboo viscose, percale cotton, eucalyptus lyocell and French flax linen keep you cooler throughout the night. Below, find 15 of our favorites. (And see the bottom of this article for an expert, research-backed guide on what truly makes a sheet set cool.)
Meet The Experts
- Corey Sullivan is the head of product at Riley Home, a luxury home brand that prides itself of craftsmanship.
- Ben Sciascia is the co-founder and creative director of Australian-based bedding company, The Hotel Sheet. He’s spent more than a decade working with textile masters in Portugal, learning what makes a truly cooling sheet set.
How We Chose the Best Cooling Sheets
We chose the best cooling sheets in the most scientific way possible: We researched how the textiles work. This translated into 16+ hours of deep-diving into temperature-regulating and moisture-wicking textiles, particularly with a focus on bamboo, eucalyptus, cotton and linen sheets. From there, we made sure each set had the following: a) a loose, flexible weave that allows air to pass through, b) a thread count under or equal to 350 yarns and c) a crisp or silky cooling surface that’s smooth on the skin.

WHAT WE LOVE
- 100-day trial period
- Repels odors and allergens
Why this viral set has more than 3,900 five-star reviews? The bamboo viscose has a silky, sateen feel, which again, is somewhat unusual in a cooling sheet because sateen achieves its lustrous sheen through a tight weave that tends to prevent airflow (more on that below). In this set, however, the manufacturer combines the natural thermoregulation of bamboo viscose with a buttery finish that mimics Mulberry silk—sans the heat-trapping properties:
“These sheets are so absurdly soft that I feel the need to comment on them every other night,” says Candace Davison, PureWow VP of editorial. “They’ve held up well over the past year (no pilling!), and they’re breathable enough that you don’t wake up in a puddle of sweat, even in the middle of summer.” They’re also allergen- and odor-resistant—and you can try the set for up to 100 days before making a decision (which is one of the longer trial periods we’ve seen).
