North America net sales through the wholesale channel increased $266.9 million, or 44.3%, to $869.1 million,  as compared to the third quarter of 2019, driven by broad-based demand across both existing and new distribution networks. North America net sales through the direct channel increased $27.6 million, or 34.6%, to $107.4 million, primarily driven by an increase of more than 100% in web sales as compared to the third quarter of 2019.

North America adjusted gross margin(1) improved 290 basis points as compared to the third quarter of 2019. The improvement was primarily driven by fixed cost leverage and productivity on higher unit volumes, brand mix and lower commodity costs. North America adjusted operating margin(1) improved 630 basis points as compared to the third quarter of 2019. The improvement was primarily driven by operating expense leverage and the improvement in gross margin.

In the U.S., Sealy’s third quarter sales growth was unfavorably impacted by supply chain constraints, primarily related to encased innerspring components. As a result, the Company could not fulfill the domestic demand for Sealy mattresses and  exited the quarter with a record amount of orders to fulfill. The Company expects these supply chain constraints to continue in the short-term.
