We all know how nice it is to snuggle up under a fluffy comforter, especially on chilly nights. But it doesn’t have to stop with the colder months. With summers approaching, we know how much you want to stay in your comfortable bedroom with the air conditioner blasting! We are here to help you turn your personal space into the cozy retreat you need with our wide selection of summer blanket comforters designed to keep you comfortable all night long.
Just the Right Amount of Warmth
A lightweight summer down comforter offers the best of both worlds: a look that’s more cloud than plush and the perfect lightweight warmth for summer nights. Lightweight comforters are ideal for year-round use by sensitive sleepers, a hot sleeper, a light sleeper who doesn’t need a heavy throw blanket, or active sleepers who toss and turn at night.
Fresh. Light. Soft. Just like the breeze that blows by your window on a beautiful summer day, cotton is what comes to mind when we think about summer comfort. In regards to down comforters for warmer months, cotton is the material of choice for summer comforter shells. Lightweight cotton is a breathable fabric that keeps you cool and comfortable. Down is naturally lightweight and fluffy, which allows it to loft-like a cloud without adding extra weight to the sleeper. The combination of cotton and down provides a cooling, comfortable summer choice for your bedding needs.
Picking Your Perfect Summer Companion
No matter what time of the year it is, you can always snuggle under the covers and make yourself a little nook to get relaxed. The following are a few tips on how to pick a lightweight comforter or cooling comforter so you don’t have to wait till winter for your comfy snoozing sessions:
Breathable Materials
A breathable cover or shell fabric lets your summer comforter do its job and keep you cool in summer. Look for shells made from organic cotton or conventional cotton for a soft, gentle feel as they are a great breathable option. Try a lower thread count! The looser weave allows for improved breathability and increased airflow, allowing hot sleepers to remain comfortable throughout the night.
Warmth Level
Down bedding can be heavenly if it’s the right one. Fill power determines the level of insulation for down-filled bedding. Fill power is the amount of space that one ounce of down occupies in cubic inches. As fill power increases, the percentage of down clusters increases, therefore increasing the level of warmth. Pick a lightweight comforter with a lower fill power, which traps less air per ounce to keep you cooler during the night. A fill power of 500-600 is considered ideal for warmer months.
