However, silk does come at a cost, both monetary and effort-wise.
They wrinkle and slide off the pillow inserts very easily.
Bamboo is also a popular material for cooling pillowcases, but they tend to have a higher price point.

The only downside to this material is its wrinkle-prone nature, which can look a little sloppy.
The crisp feeling may not be soft enough for some preferences.
