Has to be some kind of record for a french made anything?

Silky sheets usually won’t stay that way though.

Seems to be muslin. However the closest thing we have found to “grandmother’s sheets” that are still in production are Red Land Cotton. It has a thread count of 140!

Today, normal sheets are "measured" by thread count, so the thread count of these will likely NOT help you finding a twin. This applies to percale/sateen sheets. Other sheet types such as jersey, flannel, etc., are "measured" by material weight in GSM or Ounces, so if you know for sure its 240GSM via a label, you are best advised to find that via google.

I'm not Johnny Sheets, so the above may be a bit off.

OP’s grandmother bought a nice sheet…

Not percale. Muslin. Can be called linen, but not the generic broad term, such as “ linen closet”..

I buy my wife coach bags and I do have coach gloves. All have lasted.

I got a woollen one and I love it, 10/10. I purchased from Wool Room, I got the all season. It’s basically two blankets that snap together so you can choose the warmth. I’ve also heard great things about Frankenmuth. .

My husband and I are fairly hot sleepers and it regulates temp well, but is still plenty warm in the winter. It’s not fluffy (if that’s important to you), but it has a decent weight still. Not like weighted blanket heavy, but a cozy weight.

Reddit has been a thing since at least 2005.

Haha the loading dock where people move their items, deliveries etc. people leave items they don’t need/want anymore.

My best find is this just had to take it in an have some valves and a part replaced.

I find all sorts of items. It’s just people who are lazy to donate properly or sell their goods.

Ashland Leather Bugs Moran. Made in Chicago. Horween leather. Great company.

Muslin. Muslin sheets used to be less expensive than cotton percale and now vintage & new genuine muslin sheets are expensive.

Your neighbor put their trash in your room? What's a "moving room" might be a better question.

It’s just a plain percale weave, isn’t it? It’s not brushed/flannel/jersey, but is there any other sort of naming I should be looking for?
This sheet is probably 50+ years old and is labelled as “Duro” a UK brand that doesn’t seem to exist anymore

It kinda depends on the product, some of them are made in China and some are legit

People love redwings but I own both redwings and redbacks and the latter are much comfier and half the price

Comforters aren't BIFL but a good one will last ~10-15 years

I wore them often. It was weird my brown pair were a few years older than my black pair and the black one fell apart a few years after. It’s like a timing thing. I really wish they were re-soleable. The leather was awesome

Thank you so much! You have been so helpful ❤️

Tu vas faire des jaloux !

I have looked at these for about three years. Was just planning to wear them casually with jeans three seasons of the year. Are they overkill for just casual day to day non-work use? Do they look too utilitarian?

I have a Mouli-Grater that I inhereited when my grandmother passed. When she died (back in the '90s) I was asked if there was anything from the house I wanted. I asked for this and the grand piano. I got both, but this is the thing I use most and absolutely cherish.

I'm pretty sure Ms. 35-Dollar Silvia is that post that makes people jealous lol. But I remember when "I found this Barista Express on the side of the road!" happened twice in a month, was nuts
