A 50x70 pillowcase should fit your pillow nicely: not too tight, not too loose, and above all comfy every night. In this collection you’ll find 50 x 70 pillowcases in different colors, fabrics, and finishes, so you can easily pick what suits your bedroom and sleep style. Still unsure about material or finish? Then check out all pillowcases for a complete overview.

Looking for a soft 50x70 pillow cover for daily use, a smooth satin option, or extra protection with a 50x70 molton pillowcase? At HappyBed it’s easy to complete your bed. Use the filters above to quickly choose by material, color, and style.

Which 50x70 pillowcase fits your pillow?

A 50x70 cm pillowcase is designed for pillows with roughly the same dimensions. This size is often chosen if you want a slightly more compact fit than with a common 60x70 pillowcase. That gives your bed a cleaner look and can feel nicer if you don’t like too much loose fabric around your pillow.

If you’re unsure whether your pillow fits a 50x70 pillowcase, lay it flat and measure seam to seam. Also consider thickness and fill. A firmly filled pillow sometimes needs a bit more room, while a flatter pillow sits neatly in a 50x70 case. If your pillow is clearly larger than 50x70, the case may pull at the seams or feel less comfortable. If your pillow is smaller, you’ll have extra fabric left over. Want to be sure you choose well?

Besides size, look at the finish. An envelope closure gives a calm, tidy look and helps keep the pillow in place. Also check out our zippered pillowcases; they often close a bit more snugly. Choose what you find easiest to use and what fits your bed’s look.

Pick the material that matches your sleep feel

When choosing the right 50x70 pillowcases, the material is just as important as the size. The fabric determines how cool, soft, smooth, or warm the case feels. So it’s smart to look beyond color or price and consider your sleep preferences and the season.

Cotton is a popular choice for everyday use. It feels familiar, is durable, and works well if you want a practical, comfortable case. A 50 x 70 cotton pillowcase is often a great baseline if you just want to sleep well without complicated choices.

If you love a smoother, more luxurious feel, satin or cotton sateen is a great pick. Satin refers to the weave and creates a supple surface with a subtle sheen. It gives your bed a polished, elegant look. If you want extra warmth, flannel is often perfect in colder months thanks to its soft, cozy feel.

A 50x70 silk pillowcase is a luxe choice if you want a light, fluid fabric. If you’re hesitating between silk and satin, it helps to know that silk is a material and satin is a weaving technique. If you want a natural, refined fabric, silk is often the go to. If you mainly want a smooth sleeping surface and a luxurious look, satin is a favorite. Always check the product specs for the exact fabric composition.

When should you choose a 50x70 molton pillowcase?

You usually use a 50x70 molton pillowcase as an extra layer under your regular pillowcase. This protective case helps shield your pillow better from moisture and daily use. On top you use the 50x70 pillow cover you see and feel while sleeping. Unsure when to use a protector in addition to a case? Read Pillow protector vs pillowcase for clear guidelines.

That’s especially handy if you like to keep your bed fresh and low maintenance. With an extra protective layer you often won’t need to replace your pillow as quickly and it’s easier to keep your sleep space clean. Combine your pillowcase with HappyBed’s coverless, machine washable bedding and it becomes even easier to make your bed quickly and keep it fresh.

How to keep your 50x70 pillowcase looking great

How to care for a 50x70 pillowcase depends on the material. Cotton is usually easy to handle, while silk and finely woven fabrics typically need gentler washing. Always follow the care label of the specific product. That way you avoid unnecessary wear, shrinkage, or loss of softness.

It’s smart to have several 50x70 pillowcases at home so you can swap them easily. That’s practical in busy weeks and helps keep your bed fresh. Replace yours once the fabric starts thinning, seams come loose, or the case feels permanently less nice. With a few good sets you’ll always have a clean case on hand.

Frequently asked questions about 50x70 pillowcases

What is the normal pillowcase size?

In the Netherlands, 60x70 is a commonly used standard size. A 50x70 pillowcase is a bit more compact and is often chosen for smaller pillows or if you prefer a snugger fit. If you use a smaller pillow, check out the 40x60 pillowcase. The right size mainly depends on your pillow, not just on what’s common.

Does a 50x70 pillow cover fit every pillow?

No, not every pillow fits well in a 50x70 pillow cover. On a larger pillow the case will often be too tight, while a smaller pillow can feel a bit loose. Always measure your pillow first and consider the thickness of the filling.

What’s better: silk or satin?

That depends on what you want. Silk is a material and feels light, supple, and luxurious. Satin is a weaving technique that creates a smooth surface and an elegant look. If you want a natural, refined fabric, silk is interesting. If you mainly want smooth comfort and a luxe look, satin is often a great choice.

Why do some people use two pillowcases on their pillow?

That’s often a combination of a 50x70 molton pillowcase and a regular pillowcase. The molton acts as extra protection for the pillow itself, while the outer case provides comfort and style. It’s a practical solution if you like a fresh bed with as little fuss as possible.

How often should you replace a pillowcase?

There’s no fixed timeline because it depends on the material, how often you swap them, and how you wash them. Look at the condition of the fabric. If you see thin spots, permanent discoloration, or seam wear, it’s time to replace your pillowcase.
