This Company Will Pay You to Upgrade Your Sheets
It’s a common myth that the higher the thread count, the better quality the sheets are.
“it is true the higher the thread count the softer and silkier the fabric feels,” Ben Adair of truthaboutthreadcount.com told Apartment Therapy in 2018. “[but] here is a limit to how many threads can be reasonably woven into the 10 sq/cm2 area, which calculates the Australian thread count number. Brands have started to cheat this number by twisting four yarns together to create the thickness of one yarn and by doing this they can inflate the number of threads used. We have seen thread counts as high as 1,200 or even 2,000. We do not approve of this falsehood. And, if the fabric is not woven by high quality weavers, then this fabric does not stand up.”
To help bust the thread count myth, bedding brand Boll & Branch has launched a limited time program to “pay” you to ditch your old, worn-out “high thread count” sheets, replacing them with sheets that will give you a luxurious five-star hotel level of slumber.
Starting now and running through Aug. 18, all you have to do is show Boll & Branch proof that you’ve responsibly recycled or donated the high-thread-count sheets you thought you loved, and you’ll receive a 20 percent off discount to get all-new sheets from Boll & Branch. The sheets are free from toxins, woven by artisans, and made with a transparent supply chain—so you can sleep better at night. Simply email an image or a receipt proving you’ve recycled or upcycled old bed sheets to Boll & Branch at threadquality@bollandbranch.com and they’ll send you a limited offer for 20 percent off any set of sheets on site.
