A pillowcase is against your face for about a third of your life, which is more contact than any other fabric you own gets with your skin.
Off-the-shelf cases are cut for thin department store pillows. They grip a full one like a casing and flatten the height you just paid for. Ours are sewn to the same dimensions we sew the pillows to, Travel through King. A Queen pillow gets a Queen case and keeps the shape you set on night one.
Sateen is where the feel comes from, and it is a structure rather than a coating. The weave floats four of every five threads across the surface instead of tying them down into the grid, which is why your cheek and your hair move over it rather than catching, and why the surface stays cool against your face. Because it comes from the weave, it survives washing instead of washing out. The count is 300, and what you feel is the fiber and the weave rather than the number. The cotton is long-staple, so the yarn spins fine and even without the short ends that make cheaper cotton pill and shed lint into your bed.
Two colours. Natural is the cotton's own, with no dye bath and no optical brighteners. It reads as a warm off-white rather than the blue-white of most bedding. White is the white sateen, for a bed where everything else is already white.
It slips on, with no zipper and no buttons, so there is nothing hard in the space where your face goes. Sold in pairs, cut and sewn by hand in New Jersey. These pillowcases are Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) Certified Organic under license GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth. Ask me for the certificate and I will send it.
Sleeping on a body pillow, the same sateen runs the full length in the Organic Cotton Body Pillow Case, cut to 20 by 72 inches.

What's not in the case.
Your face is on a pillowcase for about a third of your life, closer and longer than any other fabric you own gets to your skin. Most cases meet it with chemistry rather than cloth: chlorine bleaching, a formaldehyde resin so they press flat, optical brighteners to fake the white back, and a softener that survives a few washes and then leaves. These cases are GOTS Certified Organic, which is the standard that governs every wet-processing step, so none of that happened to them. The smoothness is the long-staple fiber and the sateen weave, which is why it lasts and why it gets better rather than thinner. Undyed, in the cotton's own color. Sewn in a GOTS certified workshop in New Jersey, audited on site every year. What is against your cheek all night is cotton, and nothing that was put on it.
License GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth, held against the Global Organic Textile Standard and renewed on an on-site audit every year.
Common questions
What are the Circadian Organic Cotton Pillowcases?
The Circadian Organic Cotton Pillowcases are slip-on cases in 300 thread count organic cotton sateen, sold in pairs and sewn to the same dimensions Circadian sews its pillows to. There is no zipper and no buttons, so nothing hard sits in the space where your face goes. A pillowcase is against your face for about a third of your life, which is more contact than any other fabric you own. They are GOTS Certified Organic under license GOTS-10229, issued by Oregon Tilth, and sewn to order in New Jersey.
What sizes do the Organic Cotton Pillowcases come in, and will they fit my pillows?
The Circadian Organic Cotton Pillowcases come in Standard for a 20 by 26 inch pillow, Queen for 20 by 30 and King for 20 by 36, sold as a pair. Those are the dimensions Circadian sews its pillows to, and they match standard pillow sizing across brands. Off-the-shelf cases are cut for thin department store pillows and grip a full one like a casing, which flattens the height you set. These hold the height instead.
Why are the Circadian pillowcases slip-on instead of zippered?
A zipper puts a row of metal or plastic teeth inside the space where your face goes for eight hours a night. The slip-on design keeps the surface fabric only, slides off in seconds for washing, and has no hardware to break or snag. The case is cut to full pillow depth, so it stays on without a closure.
How do I wash the Organic Cotton Pillowcases?
Machine wash cold on a gentle cycle, then tumble dry low or line dry. Fold them warm. Cotton sets its creases as it cools, so take them out of the dryer while there is still heat in them, give them one snap, and fold them then. Skip fabric softener, because the sateen weave softens on its own with each wash. Most people rotate two pairs of the Circadian Organic Cotton Pillowcases and wash weekly, since the pillowcase collects more skin oil than any other piece of bedding.
Can I return the Organic Cotton Pillowcases?
Yes. The Circadian Organic Cotton Pillowcases can be returned within 60 days of delivery. Email jacob@circadianrest.com with your order number and we send a prepaid return label. There is no restocking fee, and the refund goes back to your original payment method within 3 to 5 business days of the cases reaching the New Jersey workshop. The 60-night sleep trial is written for the pillows and duvets, so if the cases have been slept on, email first and we will tell you where you stand.
How long do the Organic Cotton Pillowcases take to ship?
The Circadian Organic Cotton Pillowcases are sewn to order in New Jersey. Bedding orders leave the workshop in 4 to 7 business days, and the carrier adds 2 to 5 business days depending on how far you live from New Jersey. Checkout shows the arrival window for your address before you pay, and shipping is free.
What goes with the Organic Cotton Pillowcases?
Any Circadian pillow in Standard, Queen or King, and the Waterproof Organic Cotton Pillow Protector goes on underneath the case in the same size. The Organic Cotton Sheet Set already includes two pillowcases, so buy the pair on its own when you want a spare set or a second bed. The Organic Cotton Body Pillow Case is the matching case for the Circadian Body Pillow.
