Explanation

American Egyptian cotton (also known as Pima cotton) is considered one of the finest cotton varieties in the world due to its extra-long staple length, strength, and softness. Sea Island cotton is also premium, but American Egyptian (Pima) is widely regarded as the best commercially available variety. Egyptian cotton and Upland American cotton are other types but not necessarily the "best" in this classification.
