The Most Luxurious Flannel Sheets

By

Flannel sheet season is here! Put them on your bed because they’ll make your nest a lot warmer, but be careful about which you chose—they are not all created equal. Good flannel sheets are unbleached, made from Portuguese flannel (widely known to be the world’s finest) and will be brushed on both sides at least a few times. They’ll have higher thread counts, feel more like cashmere, and get softer with every wash. The cheap ones—aside from feeling coarse like felt—will be bleached and develop thin spots after a few cleans. Also, they pill. That’ll be no bueno come February and March when you’re really sick and tired of the cold. So, skip the bargain brands that’ll wear out after a month and check out some of the most long-lasting, luxurious flannel sheets a guy could want.

Looking for shows like Suits and Suits LA? Here are 8 top picks
These legal shows like Suits are funny and fascinating
Manuel Garcia-Rufo in The Lincoln Lawyer

When you take a look at the plot of Suits, it's a wonder it took so long for the legal series to explode into the phenomenon it stands as right now. The USA Network original series follows an exotic batch of professionals at a New York City firm as they backstab, fight, befriend, and intermingle in a quest for the ultimate legal success. The interpersonal relationships and unique characters make it one of the most relatable and intriguing legal shows of the last couple of decades. And for those who keep up with the tabloids, it starred Meghan Markle before she became known as the Duchess of Sussex.

Suits turned into the popular franchise we know it as in 2025 after benefiting from a move to Netflix. Its spinoff series, Suits LA, recently premiered on NBC and Peacock, but people may want something similar to the show outside of just this series. Don't worry because we have a nice collection of shows that share at least a genre, a character thread, or a setting with Suits. These are the best shows like Suits to watch right away.

Your guide to the best movies on Max this March
New to Max? Here are the top movies to start with
Timothee Chalamet in Dune Part 2

Now that HBO Max has rebranded as Max, it's the right time to get acquainted with all of the great movies to watch on the streaming service. In addition to large portions of the Warner Bros. catalog, it also has tons of seminal, classic films, as well as plenty of foreign releases. Because the catalog is so big and rich, there are about 250 titles that could go on this list. There's a wealth of options to choose from whether you're into action movies or comedies, and you shouldn't feel limited by the selection below.
Max is, in my estimation, the best service to turn to for a complete history of cinema. The streamer doesn't have every great movie, but it has more than any other streaming service, and it's been crucial in filling in some blindspots for me.
Instead, you should treat it as a jumping-off point of HBO Max movies, which will hopefully allow you to explore many of the titles that didn't quite make the cut. Max has great movies in every genre and from every period of film history. This is just a sampling of the best movies on Max. And if you're looking for more Max content, we've rounded up the best shows on Max to watch right now.
