Customer Experiences
Julianna Montgomery “After searching for years for the perfect jersey sheets, I finally tried the Dan River king-size set, and the difference in quality is remarkable. Unlike other brands that thin out or pill after a few trips through the laundry, these have maintained their plush, heavy-weight feel and deep charcoal color perfectly. The 16-inch deep pockets on the fitted sheet are a lifesaver; they actually stay tucked under my pillow-top mattress all night without snapping off at the corners.”
Marcus Thorne “I recently upgraded my master bathroom with the Dan River oversized bath sheets and the matching spa-style bathrobe, and it genuinely feels like a five-star hotel experience every morning. The cotton is incredibly thirsty and dries me off in seconds, yet the towels themselves don’t stay damp for hours, which prevents that musty smell you get with cheaper linens. You can tell there is a lot of history and expertise behind the weaving process because the edges haven’t frayed even slightly after months of heavy use.”
Elena Rodriguez “My kitchen and guest bedroom are now fully stocked with Dan River textiles because I trust the 100% cotton promise for my family’s sensitive skin. The pillowcases are exceptionally breathable, keeping me cool during the humid summer months, while the kitchen linens handle daily messes with ease and bleach clean without losing their structural integrity. It is rare to find a brand that balances such a heritage-rich story with products that actually stand up to the rigors of a busy, modern household.”
Dan River FAQ
What is the best way to wash my Dan River jersey sheets to keep them soft?
To maintain the signature “favorite T-shirt” feel, it is recommended to wash your jersey knit sheets in cold or warm water using a mild detergent. Avoid using liquid fabric softeners or bleach, as these can break down the natural cotton fibers and actually reduce the breathability and absorbency of the fabric over time.
Will the fitted sheets fit a thick mattress or one with a topper?
Most Dan River fitted sheets are designed with 16-inch deep pockets and fully elasticized edges to accommodate modern, thick mattresses. The natural stretch of the cotton jersey knit allows the sheet to hug the mattress securely, though it is always best to measure your mattress depth (including any toppers) to ensure the 16-inch pocket provides enough coverage for a snug fit.
Are Dan River products still manufactured in the United States?
While Dan River has a rich American heritage dating back to 1882 in Danville, Virginia, the company underwent a major transition in 2006. Today, the brand is owned by an international firm, and while the design and headquarters are based in Georgia, USA, the manufacturing of the physical textiles has been moved to overseas facilities to leverage global expertise in cotton production.
How do bath sheets differ from standard bath towels?
Dan River bath sheets are significantly larger than standard towels, typically measuring around 35″ x 70″, allowing for a full-body wrap similar to a spa experience. Because they are made from 100% combed long-staple cotton, they offer more surface area for drying and provide extra warmth and coverage compared to a traditional 27″ x 54″ bath towel.
Why does the brand emphasize “combed long-staple” cotton?
Combing is a process that removes shorter fibers and impurities, leaving only the longest and strongest cotton strands to be woven into the fabric. This results in a much smoother, more durable textile that is less prone to pilling or fraying, ensuring that your towels and sheets stay plush and soft even after dozens of laundry cycles.
