The 8 Best Hemp Sheet Sets of 2024, Tested and Reviewed
For anyone looking for a sustainable alternative to cotton sheets, hemp is gaining popularity—and for good reason. It’s similar in feel to linen and requires less water to make compared to cotton, and it gets softer every time you throw it in the wash. Plus, it's temperature-regulating, which is a win for hot sleepers.
“Hemp fabric is thermostatic, meaning it will keep you cool in summer and warm in the winter,” says Leo Wang, a bedding expert and co-founder and CEO of Buffy. “It’s also highly moisture-wicking, helping to remove sweat and humidity buildup under the covers so you stay drier and more comfortable.”
To find the best hemp sheets, we tested 12 sets over a span of six months, evaluating them on quality, texture, breathability, durability, and value. For expert advice on finding the best hemp sheets, we consulted Wang.

It could have performed better in durability tests.
The Tuft & Needle Hemp Sheet Set is our favorite for many reasons—they feel heavy and cozy, yet somehow still soft and cloud-like at the same time. It passed our absorbency test with flying colors, so we feel confident that it will be breathable in warmer months. In terms of fit, these sheets have a 16-inch pocket depth, which is ideal for deep mattresses or mattress toppers, though may be a bit loose on regular mattresses with no topper. Still, the fitted sheet held our mattress corners tight and we had no issues with it falling off.
The sheets showed no visible signs of staining when we washed them, and the coffee, foundation, and oil stains virtually disappeared. Unfortunately, they didn't perform as well on the durability test. When we sanded the sheets with sandpaper, the color faded and caused a small tear. While they disappointed us during the abrasion test, the sheets held up well long-term—after six months of use, they're still just as soft as they were when we first got them, with no shrinkage or discoloration at all. Overall, we were happy with the feel and comfort of these hemp sheets and think they are a worthy investment.
