Aegean Cotton
As with most varieties, Aegean cotton is named for its source: it’s grown in the coastal Aegean Region of Turkey. What’s different about the cotton grown in this area is that it has long fibers (or, raw cotton strands) that are especially fluffy and strong. Longer fibers mean smoother, softer threads with less of a chance of splitting and breakage. With washing, Aegean cotton gets even softer over time.
Aegean cotton is naturally hypoallergenic, making it the perfect option for those who are prone to sensitivities. Cotton is also less likely to produce the dreaded static-cling that synthetic fibers are generally known for.
