 1- Cotton

The humid conditions and rich soil in Egypt along the Nile River Valley create the perfect conditions to grow long cotton fibers (also known as staples), and Egyptian cotton falls under the classification of an  (extra-long staple) cotton. The staples of Egyptian cotton can range from 1 1/2 inches to 2 1/4 inches. Their long length (about twice the size of other cotton fibers) allows them to be spun into very fine yarns.

Another property of Egyptian cotton that makes it high quality is its ability to absorb liquid. This ability allows it soak in dies that give the final product very vibrant color that lasts longer than some other cotton products. This makes for very absorbent products like bath towels and bathrobes which are also very soft, The Egyptian cotton sheets should be softer and more comfortable. Also the T-Shirts which are 100% Egyptian cotton..

True Egyptian cotton comes only from Egypt. Because cotton grown elsewhere was being sold as Egyptian, Egyptian cotton is softer and more durable than others The Egyptian cotton sheets should be softer and more comfortable.
