Alabama Crimson Tide Queen Sheet Set, $31.49 at Target


2 days ago 26

If your Saturdays run crimson and white, your bed can too. Target's NCAA Alabama Crimson Tide queen sheet set costs $31.49. That puts Tide colors on a queen bed in a guest room, game-day bedroom, or student apartment without the cost or commitment of a full comforter set.

This is fan gear first and bedding second. The fabric is 100% polyester microplush at a 100 thread count. If you want team spirit on a budget, read on. If you sleep only on cotton, you can skip this one.

What you get: Alabama queen sheet set at a glance

  • Size: Queen
  • Team: Alabama Crimson Tide
  • Material: 100% polyester (Target calls it Microplush)
  • Thread count: 100
  • Fitted sheet depth: Fits mattresses up to 12 inches deep
  • Includes: Flat sheet, fitted sheet, and pillowcase(s). The pillowcase count varies by source, so see below.
  • Price: $31.49 at Target
  • Sold by: Target

The look: officially licensed Alabama design and repeating team logos

The design is the reason to buy this set. Target's listing describes it as officially licensed, with repeating team logos across the fabric.

The product name used in affiliate data includes "Small X," which suggests a small repeating X-style pattern. That name doesn't come from the listing description itself. Check the product images on Target to make sure the pattern is what you expect before you buy.

How it feels: 100% polyester microplush (and who it's not for)

Target's listing describes the fabric as soft-feeling polyester Microplush with a 100 thread count. Polyester sheets feel different from cotton. If you like crisp percale or natural fibers, you'll probably be happier with something else.

This set makes more sense for:

  • Fans who care more about the logo than the fiber content
  • Anyone who already likes polyester or microfiber sheets
  • Shoppers who want team bedding at a modest price

Check before you buy: 12-inch mattress depth limit and piece count

Check two things before you add this to your cart.

Mattress depth: The fitted sheet is listed for mattresses up to 12 inches deep. If you have a thick mattress or use a topper, measure first. The sheet may not fit. This is a queen set, so it is not meant for twin XL dorm beds.

Pillowcases: The sources disagree here.

  • Affiliate data lists one pillowcase.
  • Target's product page information lists two pillowcases, while also calling the set "three pieces."

The live Target listing is the place to settle it. Confirm exactly what's in the package before you check out, especially if you need two matching pillowcases for a shared queen bed.

Who it's for: game-day bedrooms, guest rooms, student apartments, and gifts

  • Game-day bedrooms: Add Alabama colors for the season without replacing all your bedding.
  • Guest rooms: A themed queen bed for visiting family who bleed crimson.
  • Student apartments: A team-spirited option for a queen bed, as long as the mattress is 12 inches deep or less.
  • Gifts: An under-$35 present for an Alabama alum, student, or lifelong fan.

What to know about durability: care and fit questions from comparable NCAA sets

We couldn't find a product-specific star rating or detailed reviews for this exact set. That means its long-term performance is unconfirmed.

Reviews of comparable officially licensed NCAA sheet sets at Target are mixed. Keep in mind these are about similar products, not this one:

  • Some shoppers report softness and durability.
  • One reviewer disliked the polyester feel but said the set improved after washing and didn't noticeably fade.
  • Another reviewer said the fitted-sheet elastic came apart after washing and drying, so the sheet wouldn't stay on the bed.

The listing for this set doesn't include drying instructions. Check the care label when it arrives. A gentle wash is the safer bet until you know more.

Price check: $31.49 at Target and when it might make sense to wait for a promotion

The set is $31.49, and that's also its regular price. This isn't a temporary discount. It's simply an under-$35 gift-guide pick.

If you're price-sensitive and don't need it right away, consider waiting for a sitewide Target promotion or a Target Circle offer that applies to bedding.

Alternatives: Alabama Homefield Bed in a Bag, other licensed NCAA sheet sets, or plain cotton sheets

If this set isn't quite right, here are other ways to go:

  • NCAA Alabama Crimson Tide Homefield 3pc Bed in a Bag Set: Includes a queen comforter and two pillow shams, not sheets. It can pair with this sheet set for a full Tide bed.
  • Other officially licensed NCAA printed sheet sets: Sweet Home Collection makes these in team designs. They typically use 100% microfiber and fit mattresses up to 14 inches deep, which may help if your mattress is thicker.
  • Plain cotton or cotton-blend queen sheets: For shoppers who want natural fibers. You can add team spirit with a separate Alabama comforter or throw.

Bottom line: is it worth it for an Alabama fan?

If you want Alabama logos on a queen bed for about $31, this set is an easy, affordable way to get them. Just know what you're buying:

  • The fabric is polyester microplush, not cotton.
  • The fitted sheet fits mattresses up to 12 inches deep.
  • Durability is unproven.
  • The pillowcase count needs a quick check on the listing.

If those all work for you, it's a fun buy for your own room or a gift for a Tide fan.
