The aesthetic is California-casual — relaxed, lived-in, effortlessly stylish. Rating: 8.3/10
Product Overview
Founded in 2014 in Venice Beach, Parachute started with sheets and expanded into a full home brand covering bedding, bath, mattresses, rugs, and decor. They operate 20+ retail stores across the US and have built a strong following among design-conscious shoppers who want quality basics without logos or fuss.
Their bedding line includes percale sheets, sateen sheets, linen sheets, brushed cotton sheets, and a full range of duvets, comforters, and pillows. Everything is OEKO-TEX certified and made in Portugal or India with long-staple Egyptian cotton or European flax linen.
Key Features
Percale Sheets
Made from long-staple Egyptian cotton with a crisp, cool hand feel. These are lighter and more breathable than Brooklinen's percale, with a more relaxed, slightly rumpled aesthetic. $109 for a Queen set — one of the best values in premium percale.
Linen Sheets
European flax linen, stonewashed for immediate softness. Parachute's linen is their standout product — it has that perfectly lived-in look from day one and gets softer over years of use. $219 for a Queen set. Linen is naturally temperature-regulating, antimicrobial, and incredibly durable.
Down Duvet Insert
Responsibly sourced European white down with a 750+ fill power. Available in lightweight, all-season, and warm weights. The all-season ($329 Queen) is the bestseller. The shell is OEKO-TEX certified cotton sateen with baffle-box construction to prevent down shifting.

Top Alternatives
Parachute vs Brooklinen: Brooklinen has more variety, better bundles, and a longer return policy. Parachute has a more refined aesthetic and better linen. Brooklinen's Luxe Sateen is smoother; Parachute's percale is crisper. Both are excellent — it's a style preference.
Parachute vs Coyuchi: Coyuchi is fully organic and more expensive. Parachute is OEKO-TEX certified but not organic. If organic certification matters, Coyuchi. If you want similar quality at a lower price, Parachute.
FAQ
Are Parachute sheets worth it?
Yes — especially the percale at $109 and the linen at $219. Both are priced below comparable quality from competitors and improve with washing.
Percale or linen?
Percale for a crisp, hotel-like feel at a lower price. Linen for a relaxed, textured feel that gets better over years. If you can afford it, get both — percale for summer, linen for year-round.
Final Verdict
Parachute nails the California-casual aesthetic with bedding that's genuinely well-made. Their percale sheets at $109 are one of the best values in premium bedding, and their linen collection is worth every penny for the decades of use you'll get. The limited color palette and shorter return window are minor trade-offs for a brand that consistently delivers quality.
