About Performance® Sheets

Let’s talk sheet. You’ve probably been told that high thread count means better sheets—but that’s a myth. More threads just mean thicker, heavier fabric that traps heat and moisture, leaving you hot, sweaty, and uncomfortable. Performance® Sheets are designed to dispel this myth and prove that thread counts don’t mean sheet. Inspired by your favorite athletic wear, Performance® Sheets feature high-tech fabrics that are cool-to-the-touch, increase airflow and wick away moisture for cooler, drier sleep in every season.
Another myth? Temperature-regulating sheets. The truth is, only your body can regulate its own temperature—but Performance® Sheets assist in the process by creating the ideal environment for cooler sleep. So, what makes our cooling bed sheets and moisture-wicking sheets the best sheets for hot sleepers? Traditional sheets suffocate your body with stuffy fabrics that trap heat and offer no flex or stretch. Performance® Sheets, on the other hand, are engineered with instant-cooling fibers and maximum breathability to keep you noticeably cooler through the night. Plus, they stretch and move with your body—not against it—so you’re never fighting your sheets while you sleep. Speaking of fighting with your sheets… Are you tired of sheet corners popping off the bed if you move (or even look at them the wrong way)? We were too. That’s why Performance® Sheets feature Powerband®, a patented elastic band that provides a secure fit and grip that never slips—no matter how much you toss and turn. No slipping, no bunching, no adjusting—just a sheet that actually stays put.
Soft, lightweight, and ultra-breathable, Performance® Sheets aren’t just built for comfort—they’re designed for cleaner, healthier sleep. Made with hypoallergenic materials, they help reduce allergens and bacteria, keeping your bed fresh night after night. They’re high-efficiency machine washable and quick-drying, saving you time, energy, and water.
Don’t let outdated bedding hold you back. Upgrade to breathable sheets designed for your best night’s sleep—because real recovery starts with the right sleep environment.
The Ultimate Guide to Cooling Sheets
1. Why Cooling Sheets Matter for Sleep Quality
If you’ve ever tossed and turned in the middle of the night, sweating and frustrated, you’re not alone. According to sleep surveys, nearly 60% of adults report overheating at night as a top cause of poor sleep. When your body temperature rises during rest, it disrupts the natural cooling process that signals your brain it’s time for deep recovery.
Cooling sheets are more than a luxury—they’re a necessity for quality sleep. They create a breathable, moisture-free sleep environment that aligns with your body’s natural thermoregulation cycle, helping you fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer.
At BEDGEAR, we design every sheet with sleep science in mind so you can maintain the ideal 65–68°F sleep zone that experts recommend for restorative rest.
2. What Makes a Sheet “Cooling”?
Not all sheets are created equal. A “cooling sheet” is defined by three core performance features:
- Fabric Technology: Natural cotton absorbs sweat, but performance fabrics like BEDGEAR’s Dri-Tec® actually wick moisture away from your skin, allowing it to evaporate quickly. This keeps your skin cool and dry instead of clammy.
- Airflow & Ventilation: Engineered weaves and Air-X® mesh panels create continuous airflow, preventing heat from being trapped under the covers.
- Fit & Stretch: Our patented Powerband® ensures your sheets stay snug without trapping excess material, which reduces hot spots.
It’s this combination of wicking, ventilation, and fit that makes our sheets a true performance upgrade
3. BEDGEAR vs. Traditional Sheets
Traditional bedding was never designed to adapt to the body in motion. Let’s compare:
- Cotton: Soft and breathable but absorbs sweat and holds it, leaving you damp.
- Silk: Luxurious, but retains heat and requires delicate care.
- Flannel: Cozy for winter but unbearable for hot sleepers.
BEDGEAR Sheets:
- Engineered to move heat and moisture away from the body.
- Built to stretch with you, never bunch or untuck.
- Durable enough to last through hundreds of washes without losing performance.
It’s the difference between sleeping on fabric and sleeping with gear that works for you.
4. How to Choose the Right Cooling Sheets
Different sleepers, different solutions. Here’s how to find your perfect match:
- For Hot Sleepers: Dri-Tec® Sheets provide maximum breathability with continuous airflow.
- For Couples: Air-X® Sheets balance airflow on both sides of the bed, helping regulate temperatures when one partner sleeps hotter.
- For Active Lifestyles: Hyper-Cotton® Sheets dry quickly and offer a crisp, durable feel ideal for people who sweat more.
- For Year-Round Comfort: Our performance sheets adapt to seasonal shifts—keeping you cool in summer and cozy in winter.
5. Care & Durability of Cooling Sheets
Performance sheets don’t just feel different—they last longer.
- Machine Washable: Every sheet is safe for regular washing and drying.
- Fade-Resistant: Colors stay vibrant even after dozens of washes.
- Shape Retention: Our Powerband® elastic keeps sheets snug, preventing corners from popping off.
With proper care, BEDGEAR sheets last longer than traditional cotton alternatives, making them a smart investment in sleep health.
6. Real Customer Experiences
We’ve heard thousands of stories from sleepers whose nights were transformed by switching to performance sheets:
- “Since switching to BEDGEAR sheets, I no longer wake up drenched in sweat. I finally sleep through the night.” — Verified Customer
- “The stretch fit is a game-changer. No more fighting with corners or waking up to a messy bed.” — Verified Customer
- “Worth every penny. I bought one set and ended up replacing every bed in the house.” — Verified Customer
These testimonials highlight what our studies already prove: performance bedding leads to performance sleep.
7. The Science of Sleep Recovery
Sleep is your body’s natural repair cycle. During the night:
- Core temperature drops to promote deep sleep.
- Cells regenerate and repair from the day’s activity.
- Muscles recover from exertion, aided by lower body heat.
If your bedding prevents this cooling process, you lose out on the most restorative stages of sleep—slow-wave and REM.
Our sheets don’t just keep you comfortable; they help optimize your body’s natural recovery cycle so you wake up refreshed, not groggy.

Do cooling sheets really work?
Yes, cooling sheets work. They’re made from breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics like cotton, bamboo, or TENCEL that let heat escape and help sweat evaporate, keeping you cooler. Their effectiveness depends on the material, weave, and your bedroom environment.
What are the best sheets for hot sleepers?
The best sheets for hot sleepers are made from breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics like cotton percale, linen or bamboo. These materials allow airflow, help sweat evaporate, and stay cooler than dense weaves or synthetics. Look for moderate thread counts (200–400) for the best balance of softness and breathability.
Can cooling sheets help with night sweats?
Yes. Cooling sheets made from breathable, moisture-wicking fabrics like bamboo, TENCEL®, or cotton percale can draw sweat away from your skin and allow heat to escape, helping you stay drier and more comfortable. While they won’t stop night sweats entirely, they can reduce overheating and clamminess, especially when paired with a cool bedroom environment.
How often should you replace your sheets?
On average, you should replace sheets every 2–3 years. Over time, fabrics wear down, lose softness, and may stop wicking moisture effectively. Signs it’s time to replace them include thinning fabric, fading, fraying, or if they no longer feel comfortable. High-quality linen may last longer, while lower-cost microfiber may need replacing sooner. Regular washing (every 1–2 weeks) also helps extend their lifespan.
Can you use fabric softener on sheets?
It’s best to avoid fabric softener on sheets. While it can make them feel soft at first, softener leaves a coating that reduces breathability and moisture-wicking, which is especially important for cooling or performance sheets. It can also cause buildup that makes fabrics feel less fresh over time. Instead, wash sheets with a gentle detergent, and if you want extra softness, use wool dryer balls or vinegar in the rinse cycle.
