I love sleeping on linen so long as it isn't too scratchy, which is one of the many things I looked for while testing and searching for the best linen sheets. These are the best linen sheets I've slept on out of all the linen I've tried. My overall favorite is The Citizenry's Stonewashed Linen Sheet Set ($299), which are a perfect middle ground of soft and breathable. Read our Best Sheets and Best Bamboo Sheets guides if you want something a little softer, and our guide to the Best Cooling Sheets if you're looking for more cooling options. Updated May 2025: We've added Tuft & Needle's Linen-Cotton Sheet Set and Buffy's Belgian Linen Sheet Set to this guide, plus a new FAQ section.
