How is 100% polyester measured as 1500 thread count?

Good Question. I 'assume' thread count just refers to the number of individual treads packed into a given space regardless of what they are made of. That being said, in my experience it has only been applied to fine cotton products. Therefore, it is misleading. I donated these to a charity. They were good polyester sheets. But I wanted cotton.

I don't know ,it really was never a concern I had. I just figured for the amount I paid I got my money's worth.If I had wanted something better I would have gotten them at Kohl's or JC Penny's.Something I have done before, the quality for the price is fair.

Looking on the package it says 100% cotton/ silk construction with polyester trim. The tag says polyester fibers.

Hello, that is the correct thread count. They are microfiber and they are quite soft.

I am no thread expert but there is a difference. This is polyester layered over polyester. 100% cotton thread has a different feel to it. I would suggest going to Hobby Lobby, Walmart, Joann Fabric or any other craft store and feel for yourself the difference between the coats and clark brand and other brands. Even though this is less expensive, in the long run it's more costly because it runs out quickly and it breaks, tangles, snags in your machine and almost all the time during hand sewing so you are basically using more thread and having to discard much of this thread. You get what you pay for. Coats and Clark is not the company it used to be. Now, all of their threads are made in Mexico. Cheap labor and sub-standard material. Hope this helps.

Sorry for the delay. I cannot recall the thread count since I no longer have the original packaging and I snipped the labels off.

Jenny. the tags say 100% cotton...so if there was a polyester in it they would have to mention it...

FYI silk is a THREAD, satin is a WEAVE. In order to make fabric, you take a type of thread, and weave it in a certain way. It is entirely possible to have a satin-weave fabric that is made of 100% silk threads. If what you actually want is a silk vs polyester test, that is something entirely different - and as another responder pointed out, the only way you are going to know for certain is if you burn it.

I purchased these a couple months age. They are Italian cotton not Egyptian. 1500 refers to how many threads there are per inch. They aren't the highest of highest qualty sheets, but, for the price they are much nicer than anything you'll find at Walmart (I've purchase there before) for even close to the same price. Really, I found them to be a good buy.

I do not think I can include a link here but the WenzelCo website states "Fabric: 600D Polyester canvas".

Egyptian quality is 100% cotton and the higher the thread count the better the sheet. The quality of polyester sheets is not as good.

I have no clue about the thread count, I would say its not 100% cotton, but very soft. Worth the money

65 Poly/ 35 cotton. It is bigger than your average shirt so I think they call it a shirt for this reason.

The tag says 100% Polyester but that's sort of deceiving since lots of things are made of that but are not as nice as these throws. I own 3 of these now. I own several other fleece type throws that I purchased elsewhere but these throws are the best quality I've ever owned. A very high quality fleece.
