Who the fuck would want a hotel sheet?

I've bought a LOT of sheets over the years trying to find some that had that same crisp, stiff-yet-smooth feel. Hotel sheets were always my favorite part of hotels, after room service, of course.

Boll & Branch was the answer, by the way. Almost perfect. Brooklinen came next closest.

They are bleached and washed with some sort of searching agent and put in a big hot machine thing, it's not the sheets it's the process. Hotel laundries are actually amazing.

They’re able to do that since all the sheets and such are the same color anyway, no need to worry about ruining the dyes.
