A 65x65 cm pillowcase fits a large square pillow measuring 65 × 65 cm, the usual pillow size in France. At Zizzz, the 65x65 pillowcase comes in percale made of GOTS-certified organic cotton – white with a beige trim, with an envelope closure – and in satin made of certified organic cotton, undyed ecru with wood-look buttons. Both are made in Portugal.
Does a 65x65 cm pillowcase fit my pillow?
Measure your pillow lying flat from seam to seam, or check the label. A 65x65 pillowcase also fits a 63x63 cm pillow.
On a 60x60 cm pillow, a 65x65 pillowcase is 5 cm larger in both directions and sits loosely: choose the 60x60 cm pillowcase instead. The 80x80 cm size common in Germany is much larger: see the 80x80 cm pillowcase.

Percale or satin in 65x65 cm?
Percale is woven in a plain weave and feels matte and cool. In satin, the threads float over longer stretches on the surface. This means fewer interlacing points, so the fabric feels smoother and gets its subtle sheen. You'll find the full comparison on our pillowcases page.
| Feature | Percale | Satin |
|---|---|---|
| Weave | plain weave | satin weave |
| Feel | matte, cool, crisp | smooth, subtle sheen |
| Thread count | 220 TC | 276 TC |
| Fabric weight | 132 g/m² | 120 g/m² |

| Colours | several designs, two-tone or with trim | ecru, undyed |
| Closure | envelope closure (inner flap) | wood-look buttons |
