It may surprise you to know that our cool wool Topper performs as well in summer as it does in the other seasons. Wool’s natural ability to breathe, dissipate heat, and control humidity/moisture, helps to keep you at the perfect temperature for sleeping.

The fleece Topper lays directly on top of your mattress (or over a mattress protector if you have one). Elastic corner straps and stretch skirt sides (like a fitted sheet), ensure a tight fit. Your bottom sheet then fits neatly over this

Yes. Many of our customers suffer everything from pre-menopausal symptoms to medicine-induced sweats. Wool has the unique natural ability to absorb up to 1/3 of its weight in moisture without feeling wet. So you stay more comfortable. And asleep.

The unique natural benefits of cool wool make it perfect for sleeping. Our heads are heat centers, and wool’s natural ability to breathe and wick moisture mean you won’t overheat. So you sleep more comfortably and can avoid those ‘stiff neck mornings’.

There is an outer case made with Tencel® fabric filled with cool wool (what we use in our comforters), this case is then filled with a unique kind of wool, called knops, little springy balls of wool that spring back after every use.

Every pillow purchase comes with an extra bag of cool wool fill. To adjust the pillow to your individual sleep style, simply unzip your pillow and remove or add fill to raise or lower the pillow height. This way, we can guarantee a pillow that fits perfectly!

Like all our cool wool bedding, the pillows can be machine-washed and tumble-dried (‘Wool’, or Gentle setting). We do recommend removing the inside fill beforehand, not that it can’t be washed, but because it’s not really necessary.

Our products are uniquely designed with an understanding of how the body sleeps, and the important role temperature change plays. It needs to cool down to sleep, and raise to wake, then in REM sleep it’s determined by your surroundings. (It’s why cooling gels actually miss the point.) Our bedding works with your body’s temperature needs, not against them.

All our cool wool bedding products can be machine-washed and tumble-dried on a ‘Wool’ or ‘Gentle’ setting. You can also freshen up the comforter simply by hanging it outside in the fresh air and sunshine. See the ‘Care & Clean’ link below for details.

It really depends on your bedroom temperature. Below 70F, our bedding is perfect all year round. (Most sleep experts say 65F is ideal.) Over 72F and you may perfer our lightweight cool wool Comforter. The fleece Topper however, performs well in any season.

Yes! Wool has the natural ability to absorb up to 1/3 of its own weight in moisture without feeling wet (later releasing the moisture into the air). This helps to keep you more comfortable, never cold (after sweating), and asleep.

There’s no need to wash our bedding often. Being naturally antibacterial and anti-microbial, our wool bedding stays cleaner longer. But anytime you need to, our bedding can be machine-washed and tumble-dried.

We refer to our fleece Topper as the foundation of sleep. Start with this on your bed. It’s super comfortable, breathes, and will insulate you from synthetic mattresses and mattress pads that trap heat. And, it performs as well in summer as it does in winter.

Merino is a beautifully soft and luxurious fiber, yet it also wears very well. The benefits of using Merino for a sleep mask is that it breathes, disperses heat, and wicks moisture. (Unlike those synthetic Airline masks!) So you stay more comfortable.

This mask has the distinction of being grown in Australia, woven in Italy and designed, cut and sewn in Brooklyn, NY. You Are What You Sleep is based in Brooklyn, and so we were super excited to find a like-minded partner with some very nice sewing machines just around the corner.

We love Merino is for its performance, not just its beauty. Merino is a surprisingly hardy fiber, especially when woven by Italian artisans. Indeed, the only complaint we’ve had is from a customer who left his mask and bamboo container in the seat pocket of an airline. (He bought 3 more, just to be safe.)

We call our wool ‘cool wool’ because it’s nothing like that old wool sweater Gran knitted you! Cool wool adjusts to your body temperature changes, releasing heat and drawing moisture away. This wool, and the 100% Tencel® fabric it’s wrapped in, is super soft and naturally allergy-friendly.

One of the great benefits for those not used to washing their own stuff (like, ever), is that wool is naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial. So under normal use it doesn’t need washing…rather an airing-out now and again. See ‘Care & Clean’ in the Footer for the full story.

The cool wool Fleece Topper lies directly on top of your mattress (or over a mattress protector if you have one). Elastic corner straps and stretch skirt sides - like a fitted sheet - ensure a tight fit and no movement. Your bottom sheet then fits neatly over this.
