Your down comforter should be covered in 100% cotton fabric with a thread count of 200 or more. The higher the thread count, the tighter the weave. A tight weave guarantees that down or feathers are less likely to escape or poke through the down comforter cover, causing discomfort to the sleeper. Luxury down comforters have soft, tightly woven shells.
