Let's establish one thing right away: We adore jersey sheets. Usually made of cotton or a blend of plant-based and synthetic materials, these top-rated sheets are ridiculously soft and perfect for year-round relaxation. As you'll find with the names of most of these products, they're the bedding equivalent of your most well-worn T-shirt — that is to say, completely snuggly and definitely unpretentious.
If your bedding preferences are less “hotel-bed starched” and more “floppy, cozy, comfortable,” then jersey sheets are your perfect match.
A jersey knit refers to a sheet's loose, broken-in weave, rather than the composition of the material itself — jersey sheets can be made of cotton, bamboo rayon, eucalyptus-derived fiber, or synthetic materials, and these all offer different benefits and drawbacks, depending on what your preferred texture may be. Cotton has a plush, familiar softness, while bamboo and eucalyptus are a little slinkier. Adding spandex into the blend gives the material an athleisure-like feel.
Also, just because these sheets are on the affordable end of the price spectrum doesn't mean that you shouldn't take care of them! To prevent pilling, thinning, and other deterioration that these types of sheets are subject to, make sure to wash them on a gentler, colder washing machine cycle than you may be used to.

Who doesn't love these jersey sheets? This well-known, budget-friendly set from Bed Bath & Beyond isn't fancy, but every time we put it on our bed, we can't help but happily sigh. We've been fans of this specific jersey sheet set since our college days.
These sheets have a more casual than crisp look, and though they're soft, they don't have that slippery feeling that silkier varieties do. Even those who don't normally like sleeping with top sheets will love the drape of the soft and cooling fabric over their body.
We only wish these modal jersey sheets had deeper pockets — they're prone to shrinking, and can be a struggle to fit over a mattress topper.
These organic-cotton jersey sheets from Pact are one of our favorite sets because of how thick and plush they are — they feel as substantial as two layers of cotton sheets in one. Made of organic cotton, these sheets are the next-best thing to flannel in terms of warmth.
The material is velvety and soft (not crisp like cotton percale), with a casual drape that'll remind you exactly of — you guessed it — your favorite cotton tee.
We've slept on these sheets regularly for over a year, and enjoy them now just as much as we did on the first night: There's no pilling, shrinkage, or other funny business to report. However, these jersey sheets are quite weighty, and perhaps not the best for hot sleepers or for use in the summertime.
We're in love with The Company Store's jersey sheet color spectrum! They're available in hues both bright and sunny, as well as deeply moody. Reviewers say that they stay deeply vibrant, even after countless washes.
The sheets themselves are of high quality, and have the soft cotton cuddliness that you'd want in a jersey knit — but without the pilling. The fabric feels casual yet substantial, and reviewers say these sheets are a perfect match for any season.
Believe it or not, Walmart sells Gap Home bedding, and their jersey sheets are actually amazing. These organic cotton and bamboo lyocell sheets have a stretchy texture that feels smooth without being too slick.
Able to accommodate tall mattresses, these affordable sheets are touted for their durability and softness — though some users say they do retain a little bit of body heat.
Purple's SoftStretch Sheets make your pillow and mattress feel like they're enveloping you in a big hug each night. These jersey sheets are incredibly breathable and smooth, and the spandex in the material lends them some extra flexibility. The fitted sheet also has a thick elastic band that holds the bedding right where it's supposed to be.
These sheets are also effectively temperature regulating, and provide the appropriate level of warmth or cooling any time of year. But while the material is dreamy, the true hue of the sheets’ colors is tricky to discern — several reviewers have reported that the “true white” sheets, in fact, have a slightly purplish tint to them.
With their soft feel and slightly heathered look, these jersey sheets from Amazon's in-house brand look like the epitome of comfort. They're a crowd-favorite set, too, with 82% of their near 22K reviewers giving them a perfect score. They cite the sheets' stretchy material and warm feel as major plusses.
These jersey sheets are undoubtedly a bargain and great for buying in multiples for lots of beds at home ... though there is a trade-off in quality. While these sheets are Oeko-Tex certified for chemical-free construction, they aren't indestructible. Some reviewers report small holes appearing at the seams after a few washes, so be mindful of running these on a gentle cycle.
