However, the uniform structure of percale cotton also leaves it more prone to wrinkling. Meanwhile, sateen sheets practice a one-over-three-under weave to produce tightly knit, silky soft sheets. But over time, this smoothness may fade and be prone to snags. Percale and sateen weaves are top-notch options depending on your needs.

 Another misconception about microfiber sheets is that they make you sweat.  While it's true that microfiber isn't as breathable as natural fibers like cotton, high-quality microfiber sheets are designed to wick away moisture and regulate body temperature.  Look for microfiber sheets with moisture-wicking properties to ensure a comfortable, sweat-free sleep experience.

Sateen:Sateen is another common weave style, using a three or four yarn over, one yarn under weave. This means the fabric is usually thicker and more tightly woven than percale — often with a higher thread count, too. Sateen is known for its lustrous sheen, soft and smooth feel, and beautiful drape. It also tends to be warmer than percale, due to being thicker.
