  • Amazon sells endless numbers of silk pillowcases. How do you know it is the stated quality? How do you verify if it really is 22 momme or if it really was 19 momme? A momme is a unit measure of quality for silk. In other fabric, they go by thread count as more threads per inch is finer but silk is too thin and needs another measurement method. 22 momme means a piece of silk fabric the size of 100 yards by 45" weighs in at 22 lbs. Bear in mind that it's not 100 ft by 45", this would be a 3x difference. Fabric is normally sold by the yard so the yard measurement is correct. Using this, you can easily calculate what your pillowcase is supposed to weigh given a size of fabric used. I did so with 4 of the most popular silk pillowcases on Amazon. Watch to see the results!

    I bought a black silk shirt years ago. When I wore it, I was hot and sweated a lot. I should have checked with my girl-friends. They all told me, "Oh yeah, everybody knows silk does not breath like cotton or wool and it makes you hot." So I wonder if these pillows have the same problem, that it feels hot when you lay on it. This experience also makes me wonder that fewer momme weight is actually better since the lighter fabric will weigh less.

      It was just on the back of my mind that it was slightly not as breathable. You put it into words for me.

    Can silk be that cheap?
    I got one and it doesn't feel the silk scarf I own at all.

    Is she silk breathable or better to get bamboo maybe ?

    • @BeatTheBushDIY
      @BeatTheBushDIY  Před rokem

      I don't have an issue with breathability but I suppose since its so fine, not much air would go through.

    How come the Zima Silk one is a good price but if u go to the Zima silk store it's 40 something bucks. And on the page for Zima silk it's sold by Zima silk but then has another link that says visit the Zima silk store...like they have 2 stores. Hmmmm? Are the 40 something ones a better quality and they have 2 stores for different qualities?

    • @jenny2282
      @jenny2282 Před rokem +1

      Either way I decided to go with Zima silk from the link u put down below so you get a little commission I hope from it?! Your vid was the best for picking a pillow case! Thank uuuuuuuuuuuuu❤❤❤❤❤❤

    I'd think that they'd be calculating the momme from the raw material BEFORE creating the pillowcase. It's actually pretty ridiculous for you to ASSUME their calculations were done after construction and to spend so much time focusing on that...🙄

    • @familydad3241
      @familydad3241 Před 7 dny

      Is pretty ridiculous that you "think" they calculating the moment from raw materials before creating. Sounds like your not 100% sure yet you tell him he's ridiculous for saying it?🙄
