Product Insights
These pillowcases use 100% Egyptian cotton with extra-long staple fibers and a single-ply weave, offering a 480-thread-count that softens to a creamy texture after washing while staying thick and strong. They require ironing due to durable weaves that cause pronounced wrinkles, and the off-white shade is a warm beige rather than pure white; one reviewer found them not soft, but the generous sizing fits oversized pillows and the brand's heritage includes use in five-star hotels, with a breathable storage bag for care.
Verified claims
- Softening evolution
- Becomes creamy soft after a few washes while remaining thick and strong.
- Softness consistency
- One reviewer did not find the pillowcases soft at all.
- Material
- 100% Egyptian cotton with 480-thread-count single-ply weave and extra-long staple fibers.
- Price comparison
- At the sale price of $19.99 CAD, this 480-TC Egyptian cotton set offers over double the thread density of a $28 CAD 200-TC blend.
- Color accuracy
- The blue color is described as perfect, while the off-white is a broken white that can vary and may not match every buyer's expectation.
- Wrinkle behavior
- The pillowcases come out of the wash visibly wrinkled, and one reviewer does not expect the creases to smooth out over time.
- Care
- Wash at 40°C max with half detergent and vinegar instead of fabric softener.
- Drying and storage
- Tumble dry low and remove damp; store in the included breathable bag.
- Fit
- A reviewer specifically looking for large-size pillowcases praised the size and quality of the fabric.
- Thread count
- 480 thread count falls in the 300–500 range textile labs identify as optimal, and is below the 600–700 range where single-ply Egyptian cotton tops out, so it is unlikely to be a multi-ply-inflated count.
- Brand heritage
- Simons Maison is the in-house brand of La Maison Simons, a Canadian retailer operating since 1840, and has a bedding collection with 5-star Le Germain Hotels.
- Fiber quality
- The Egyptian cotton fibers are extra-long staple (38–45 mm), so the pillowcases resist pilling and become silkier with washing rather than thinning.
- Breathability
- The 480-thread-count weave remains breathable, wicking moisture and regulating temperature through the night instead of trapping heat.
- First wash
- Before first use, wash the pillowcases in cold water with a half-cup of distilled white vinegar and no detergent or softener to strip mill sizing and set the dye.

Everyday bedding that softens with each wash
These 480-thread-count Egyptian cotton pillowcases suit everyday bedding, with a thick, tightly woven feel that reviewers say softens to a creamy texture after several washes and holds up wash after wash. One reviewer specifically chose the generous size and found it fit an oversized pillow well. Note that according to one review they come out of the wash noticeably wrinkled and hold creases, so ironing may be needed for a smooth look.[1]
Coordinating pillowcases with your bedroom decor
A solid Egyptian cotton pillowcase set intended to pair with your existing bedding and room decor. Note that in the off-white shade, the color is not a true white and may differ from online photos, so it may not be the best pick if exact color matching matters.[1]

|---|---|---|
| Egyptian Cotton Pillowcases 480-Thread-Count Set Of 2: Choose these if you want everyday luxury pillowcases made of 100% Egyptian cotton with a 480 thread count, sold as a set of 2 in standard (20 by 34 inches) or king (20 by 42 inches) sizes. Based on customer reviews, the thick, tightly woven cotton resists wear and softens to a creamy feel over several washes, though one buyer found them not soft at all initially. Note that per reviews they come out of the wash noticeably wrinkled and need ironing for a smooth look, and the off-white shade disappointed some buyers expecting a true white.[1] | Bamboo Rayon And Organic Cotton Pillowcases Set Of 2 300-Thread-Count: Choose this if you want a Simons Maison exclusive set of 2 pillowcases in a soft, silky 300-thread-count blend of 60% responsibly sourced bamboo rayon and 40% organic cotton, with an envelope-style closure that keeps the pillow tucked in. It suits shoppers who value certified, responsibly sourced materials, as the pillowcases are FSC-certified, and they come in standard and king sizes. Note this listing's variant is the green colorway, and the comfort descriptions are the brand's promotional framing rather than reported user outcomes.[2,3,4,5] | Stonewashed Lyocell Pillowcases Set Of 2: Choose this if you want a set of two pillowcases in soft, breathable 100% TENCEL™ Lyocell with a 230 thread count and a relaxed stonewashed look that Simons says brings a warm, nature-inspired vibe to the bedroom. They come in standard and king sizes with an envelope-style folded flange opening and sewn hems, in a light beige tone with a slightly rumpled texture. Note the washable-looking stonewashed finish shows gentle wrinkles and creasing, so it suits casual, low-fuss bedding styling rather than a crisp pressed appearance.[6,7,8] |

Not soft at all tbh
Not soft at all tbh im sad
Beautiful
The fabric is substantial - thick and strong. It is also soft and luxurious. Very pleased with them.
The best
My second pair: the first one has lasted me for years. The fabric is thick and durable, becoming incredibly soft with an almost creamy texture after a few washes. Avoid bleaching to prevent yellowing if you have the white ones.
confortable
belle finition tres satisfaite
Belle grandeur et bonne qualité
Je cherchais des taies supplémentaires de grande taille et surtout en coton de bonne qualité.
Egyptian pillowcases
Great purchase, the fabric is soft and the blue colour is perfect!
Great sheets and pillow cases
This bedlinen is made of excellent quality cotton. The fitted sheet is easy to fit on my mattress - and could fit on deeper mattresses, also.
La couleur n’est pas exactement
La couleur n’est pas exactement ce que j’attendais, blanc cassé veut dire tellement de possibilités, mais j’adore le confort des draps et des taies d’oreillers.
smooth but wrinkly
have only washed and not yet used but the fabric appears to be rather wrinkled - not anticipating that this will change over time.
The best!
The best I ever had! Not going back to other types ever again.
