Shopping with Hampton and Astley
Towels: thickness versus absorbency
The towel range is the brand's core. Its bath towel sets are made from 100% Egyptian cotton with a 700GSM loop-pile construction, and the brand describes them as built to dry well rather than simply feel thick. Sets are available in different combinations, from six-piece sets of bath and hand towels to seven-piece sets that add face cloths and a large bath sheet. If you want a single hand towel or a pair, separate listings exist.
Bedding and sateen finish
The bedding collection uses 500 thread count Egyptian cotton sateen, which gives a smoother, silkier finish than a standard percale weave. Duvet cover and sheet sets are offered in double, king, super king and emperor sizes, so check the bed dimensions before ordering, especially for deeper mattresses. The brand states its extra deep fitted sheet has 40cm depth.
Fitted sheets and sizing
If your mattress is deep, the 40cm fitted sheet is the product to look for, as the brand notes most online brands only go to 28cm. Sizes are listed per sheet, so compare width, length and depth against your mattress before buying. Sheets can be bought separately from full bedding sets.
