Are these sheets durable? I've had trouble with sheets wearing out quickly at the foot area and I want to avoid that.

I know exactly what you are talking about. Previous sheets I have purchased have worn out in the foot area within one year. I have only been using these about 2 months so I don't know yet; but, I think that from what I see, they will last.

they held up beautifully for me for about a year, and then the elastic died.

Cant recommend them. Pilled within three washes. I understand you are asking for durability but if they are uncomfortable why keep using. I don't think durability is going to be good either.

They are very durable. I don't think they will wear out anytime soon. I wear them 3 days a week for any squat type exercise with the exception of cleans. They are very thick. Just becareful the only way I see them riping is from pulling them on if your fingernails dig in. Enjoy they are worth every penny!

They are pretty durable -- I've had them for four seasons, used them for two -- they are still solid. I take care of them -- I wash and dry them thoroughly before storing over the winter.

I don't really know what causes "pilling". I do agree that it is an annoying consequence of cheap and sometimes not so cheap sheets. It seems some of the micro fabrics seems to hold up better, but my choice is always 100% cotton high thread count. I have only washed these sheets twice, but they must be washed in cold water and when they come out of the dryer they look brand new. I bought on set to see how they hold up and have since bought another set. I guess it is a crap shoot these days, but these sheets are not all that expensive , they are holding up well and they are wonderfully soft. I hope this opinion helps you with your buying decision.

Hi Carole.........I have been more than happy with our sheet clips. Once on, they do a great job. No problems at all with them. :-)

Hi Medi, I'm out of town right now so I can't go to my own bed and experiment with the sheet. All I can say is that it seemed pretty standard to me . . . do you regularly have trouble with standard fitted sheets? If so, you might have the same problem with these. Write back if you want me to experiment a bit when I'm home again (Sunday, Jan. 5) and get back to you with more info.

I would say "no". I base this answer on the fact that they were very thin and I sent them back mainly because in the middle of the sheets it was slightly perforated-after just one washing! It would have torn on the second washing for sure.

Sorry -- There is no reference for this question and I've bought 4 pairs of sheets thru Amazon -- if you could send me a pic or description of the sheets , I"d happily answer this for you!

I'd say they're about average thickness as far as sheets go. If you want thick sheets, maybe look into flannel ones.

These are actually very high quality sheets. I had my first set "pill" also. I did some research and discovered that drying cotton sheets on high heat will compromise the cotton and therefore it will pill. I purchased a second set as I love the way they feel and also the way the fitted sheet has thick elastic all the way around preventing any slipping of the bottom sheet. I have only dried this set on medium heat and they have held up beautifully, only getting softer each time. They really are the best sheets I've found, but you must dry them on a lower heat setting.

How has your luck been with these new sheets so far? I have bought two pairs of these in the past and now I just bought the ivory set as it is back in stock. Now I am a bit concerned as to what people are saying as well!

They're nice for a bed but not sure how they would hold up to a lot of washings....I have mine on guest bed and haven't washed it yet....

I have not had this problem. I have not done anything special to wash them, although my washer does have a "sheets" cycle. However, I have not had them for very long.
