Oatmeal Linen Fitted Sheet

An oatmeal linen fitted sheet in 170 GSM European linen.

Construction

Elasticated all the way around for a snug fit. Deep-pocket cut — see the size selector for the depth that matches your mattress. Reinforced corner seams.

The fabric

170 GSM European linen, medium weight. Cool in summer, warm in winter, naturally breathable.

Care

Wash before first use — cold water, delicate cycle. The sheet is cut 3–5% oversized to absorb the natural shrinkage of linen; it settles to nominal size after 1–2 cold washes. For ongoing care, machine wash at 40 °C (104 °F) on a delicate cycle. Tumble dry low. Do not bleach. Ironing is not necessary; linen carries a soft crease naturally. Full details: linen care guide.

Certification and origin

OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certified — the fabric and thread are tested for substances that affect skin and lungs. The flax is European; every piece is cut and sewn in our own workshop near Riga, Latvia — not subcontracted, not relabelled from elsewhere.

Common questions

Should I wash this before first use?
Yes. New linen should always be washed before first use — cold water, delicate cycle. The sheet ships oversized and settles to nominal size after 1–2 cold washes.

Does linen shrink?
Yes — natural fibers shrink. Expect 3–5%. This sheet is cut oversized to absorb that, so the final fit matches the size you ordered.

What shade is oatmeal — will it fade or vary?
Oatmeal is a mélange: bleached white warp threads woven with a gray weft, giving a soft heathered tone. Slight color variation between batches is normal for mélange linen. The color does not fade with normal care.

Will it fit my mattress?
Deep-pocket cut accommodates most modern mattresses. Check the size selector for the exact depth — match the depth to your mattress, not just the length and width.
