Fitted sheets and pocket depth
A fitted sheet has to clear the depth of your mattress as well as its width and length. Our standard fitted sheets have a 25–30 cm pocket; if your mattress is deeper than that, or has a topper on it, choose an extra-deep sheet. The pocket depth is listed in the specification on every sheet.
Pillowcases
A standard UK housewife pillowcase is 48 × 74 cm. Oxford pillowcases add a 5 cm border all round, so they measure larger but fit the same pillow.
Tog ratings
4.5 tog for summer, 10.5 tog for spring and autumn, 13.5 tog for winter. An all-seasons duvet is a 4.5 and a 9 tog that button together to make 13.5.
