Brooklinen made its name on sheets, and plenty of people trust it for good reason. So when you need a silk pillowcase, buying it from the brand that already made your bed feels easy. Before you do, it is worth asking the same four questions you would ask about any silk. Here is how Brooklinen's silk pillowcase and ours answer them.

What Brooklinen does well
It publishes an OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certificate number right on the product page, which not every silk brand does. It is machine washable. It offers a 365-day return window, far longer than ours. And if your pillows are Standard or King, Brooklinen makes those sizes; we only make Queen right now.
The four questions
1. How heavy is the silk?
This is the biggest gap in the comparison, and it is not about whose silk is better. It is that we couldn't find the answer on Brooklinen's product page. The only number we found was in a 2019 blog post: 22 momme. Ours is 25 momme, printed on the product page. Momme is the single number that tells you how much silk you are paying for. Why it matters
2. What grade is it?
Brooklinen doesn't state a grade. Ours is Grade 6A, the top grade for silk filament length and uniformity.
3. Can you check the certificate?
Yes, for both. Brooklinen publishes OEKO-TEX 17.HUS.08214. Our pillowcases are crafted by a GOTS-certified silk house (GOTS license 00284622), whose OEKO-TEX certificate is 22.HCN.30712 (Hohenstein). Both can be checked on the certifiers' own websites. Our certificates
4. How does it close?
Brooklinen's product page doesn't say. Ours closes with a hidden zipper, which holds the pillow snug so the silk stays smooth all night. Zipper vs envelope
Why we publish every number
Erin Wise was 44 when she was diagnosed with CLL. During chemo she looked for a better silk pillowcase than the cheap one she carried, and not one brand could prove what its silk was made of. So she built Wink Silk to answer all four questions on the product page, before you have to ask. Read her story
Who each is for
Brooklinen offers Standard and King sizes and a 365-day return window.
Wink Silk Douceur™ is for you if you want to know the momme, grade, closure and certificates before you buy, and want 25 momme with a hidden zipper.
Douceur Doublure™ is for you if you want two layers and a hand-numbered founding piece, one of 330, never restocked.
What we won't claim
We won't claim Brooklinen's silk is lighter than ours: it doesn't publish a current number, so we can't know, and neither can you. That is the point. And no silk pillowcase, ours included, will regrow hair or erase wrinkles. Silk reduces friction. That is the claim.
