Loftie is hypoallergenic and features easy care properties. It will be offered in basic bedding with a minimum of 230-count cotton shells and have a suggested retail of $19.99 on standard pillows and $69.99 on full comforters.

PrimaLoft — The Luxury Down Alternative features a microfiber construction that mimics the physical and thermal properties of down.

PrimaLoft Elegance is a patented blend of hypoallergenic microfibers considered the softest, easiest care, most comfortable luxury down alternative on the market, according to the company.
