Do you have trouble sleeping through the night because you get too hot? You’re definitely not alone. There are plenty of folks out here with the same problem; so many, in fact, that there’s an entire whole category of sheets designed just to help them out! They’re called cooling sheets, (or cooling bedding in general, but for our purposes today — they’re cooling sheets), and they come in an impressive array of sizes, colors, and patterns right now.

Since the human body loses control of temperature regulation when we fall asleep, the highs and lows we experience while in bed may be a surprise to us if given the chance to monitor them. Come take a closer look at our favorite 5 sets with us and see what sets you need to take home:

Layla Sleep Bamboo Sheets

Layla’s cooling bamboo sheets made from the viscose (or cellulose) of the bamboo plant are not only cool, but silky, soft, breathable, and said to be “3 degrees cooler than cotton”. One reason for hot sleeping is that when we humans go to sleep, we lose our ability to regulate our own body temperature. With this sheet set’s moisture wicking and thermal regulating capabilities, they will surely also keep you dry and cozy.
Quick-growing bamboo is a great resource for the eco-conscious as it’s naturally resistant to pests (thus requiring no pesticides), creates substantially more oxygen than most trees, helps prevent soil erosion, and also requires much less water to grow than cotton. So when you opt for these cooling sheets, you can consider yourself environmentally conscious as well as comfortable!

Available in six sizes (twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, and calking), and two colors (white and grey), Layla’s bamboo sheets are $150 for a queen-sized set here.
