I waited until they were used before I did my review. Initally, they were huge! Way too big. Then I washed them and yes, they did shrink. They now fit perfectly. And I have a deep mattress so don't be afraid of these. The sheets washed up beautifully and softened a bit. Being Egyptian cotton they will get softer as I wash them more. They are 'cotton soft'. .... no all smooth and shiny. So don't expect that. The pattern stayed true so it is not all twisted up. Good quality. Well worth the money. I will buy again when these wear out. Are my summer sheets as I don't use a comforter or blankets in summer and they give a great appearance on the bed, which was my main goal. Well that and sheets my hubby likes. He hasn't complained about these so they must be ok for him.So glad to find great cal king size sheets that I can afford love that the 6 PC is organic cotton so soft and luxurious beautiful color and qualityThese pillowcases are great - they are made very well, are a really rich, dark grey color, generous in size, wash well and are such a bargain price for two! You cannot go wrong buying these!!Absolutely love these sheets. Of course if you don't want leopard print sheets, then why are you looking at this product? If you shop around you will find that these sheets have the highest thread count compared to the other brands that are selling this print. Very happy with my purchase!!!!Well fitting, comfortable sheets. My girlfriend loves the leopard print. 4 pillow cases is a plusGood quality. Shipping took a long time.greatNeeded the deep pocket to fit the mattress properly. Looks and feels great.
