Can you use flannel sheets year-round?
To cover this topic in a single word: yes.
For those of you whose attention we still have: welcome, information seekers. This guide will give you some help choosing the right flannel sheets for your bedroom, and show you how versatile Lands' End sheets are for year-round use.
Flannel sheets are synonymous with coziness, comfort, and warmth. This is for good reason – flannels are brushed woven fabrics that are soft and have a bit of nap to them (that's what makes them feel all fuzzy). It's the fuzzy nap of flannel that helps it insulate better than most other sheets. We source our flannel from a family-owned mill in Portugal, and they make flannel the way it's meant to be – able to stand up to Scandinavian winters and Mediterranean summers.
What most people don't realize is that flannel isn't just warm – it's super breathable, too. That makes it perfect for summer months. The weave structure of our flannel sheets allows them to breathe and keep you cool when you need them to, and insulate when it's colder. Many of our customers ditch their comforter in the summer and use their flannel top sheet as a thin flannel blanket in the summer – just the right amount of warmth.
What you might not have considered is that we sell a variety of flannel sheet sets here at Lands' End. Two weights of sheets – 5oz. and 6oz. flannel – help you choose just how much cozy factor you're going for. An ounce of difference goes a long way here – the 6oz. is our warmest and heaviest sheet, while the 5oz. is more moderate, maybe better for year-round use. For those who want an Earth-friendly flannel, we also just introduced organic cotton home products, made from the best organic cotton we could get our hands on.
Once you've made the choice between our flannel options, why not personalize your bedroom décor with monogrammed bedding? Adding a monogram to your sheet set is a great way to make things feel more personal. Get a set of Lands' End flannel sheets for every bedroom in the house, and have them personalized for every member of the family. Don't forget: they make great gifts, too.
If you're looking to get extra cozy this winter, why not get a flannel duvet cover? We make those too! You'll be glad that you decided to combine the coziness of flannel with the soft cloud-like effect of a duvet. Throw on some Lands' End flannel pajamas or maybe a flagship flannel shirt and you're guaranteed to be in flannel-ful heaven.
