Derek Rose Men’s Pyjamas

DETAILS

  • Material: Micro-modal stretch fibre
  • Machine washable
  • Available in multiple colours

Sleep through the night in comfort and style in this classic pyjama set from Derek Rose. The matching long-sleeve top and bottoms are made from a blend of stretchy micro-modal fibres.

Made with an extremely durable fabric, these garments won’t pill regardless of how often you toss them in the wash. Handily, they’re also thermostatic: ensuring you stay cool regardless of how warm it gets at night.

Instead of using the typical drawstring, the trousers are cut with an elasticated side and back; ensuring you can get a streamlined fit without any uncomfortable bunching around the waist. The magnetic fly closure ensures easy opening and closing – making those impromptu nighttime trips to the bathroom that much more convenient.

Note, in line with Derek Rose’s sizing, the shirt might run small – especially for men with wider shoulders.


New & Lingwood Brushed Cotton Pyjama Set

DETAILS

  • Material: 100% cotton twill
  • Available in white & yellow
  • Machine wash at 30 degrees

This men’s pyjama set from British heritage label New & Lingwood improves with each subsequent wear – becoming super buttery soft with repeated washing and time. The colour-matched top and trousers are made with 100% brushed cotton jacquard; allowing you to stay warm on chilly nights without overheating.

No matter your sleeping position, these pyjamas won’t restrict your movements – they’re cut with plenty of ease and a roomy true-to-size fit.

Piped silver trim on both the pants and the shirt give these best cotton pyjamas a sophisticated look. Note however that the former can be a bit wide for some.


Eberjey ‘Henry’ Tencel Modal Long PJ Set

  • Material: 95% tencel; 5% spandex
  • Available in multiple colours
  • Elasticated waistband

Whether relaxing at home or getting a good night’s sleep, Eberjey’s ‘Henry’ model is a comfortable and long-lasting style that is right for the job.

The Henley-style shirt has a relaxed fit, and the casual lounge pants offer round-the-clock comfort. The combination of an elastic waist and drawstring ensures a comfortable fit and the latter’s adjustability mean you’re never far from your ideal fit.

These pants are even cut with side-entry pockets – making them one of the rare pyjama styles in which you can do a quick dash to the grocers or out for the morning paper.

Some men may not feel comfortable with the tighter fit around the ankles or the stretch knit fabric.


Peter Alexander Grey Check Bamboo Set

  • Material: 70% viscose bamboo; 30% cotton

Made by legendary New York clothier Paul Stuart, these highly breathable pyjamas are a great lightweight option amid transitional weather. The light blue PJ set consists of a collared long-sleeve shirt; and matching drawstring trousers both made from a highly breathable poplin cotton.

The drawstring allows you to adjust the waist for a comfortable fit.

The fully buttoning placket gives this pyjama set a bit of detail; and ensures a nice neat front even when you have friends or guests in the domicile. Cut and sewn in a manner not dissimilar to tailored shirting, this is one you might even get away with wearing outside the house.

  • Material: 85% cotton; 15% cashmere
  • Genuine MoP buttons

These pyjamas, crafted by royally appointed English shirt maker Emma Willis, will likely have you settling in for a warm cuppa and marathon of Paddington. The set is hand cut and sewn in Gloucester, giving you a superb and comfortable fit that’s worthy of a King.

The lightweight pyjamas are made from a blend of Swiss cotton and cashmere. This unique fabrication ensures sleepwear that is comfortable and adept at the task of keeping you warm on chilly evenings. 

Hand-rolled piping gives the set an understated and elegant appearance, complete with authentic mother-of-pearl buttons, while the wide elastic around the waistband keeps the pants firmly in place.


Desmond & Dempsey Men’s Pocket Pyjama Set

DETAILS

  • Material: 100% brushed cotton twill
  • Can add complimentary monogram
  • Machine wash

Crafted from brushed cotton, these pyjamas are as soft as they are elegant. The long-sleeve shirt buttons up to the neck, giving it the look of a button-down; while long, loose-fitting trousers provide maximum comfort without compromising on sharpness. The looser fit ensures a range of comfortable movement – no matter whether you’re sleeping or cooking breakfast.

The pants taper at the ankles to prevent cold drafts. You can also take advantage of the roomy front pockets on the shirt. However, in a few cases, the button-up style of the shirt may not appeal to all men

DETAILS

  • Material: Superfine cotton
  • Camp-collar design

When the weather calls for lightweight summer pyjamas, look no further than this set from Cleverly Laundry. The pyjamas include a matching short-sleeve shirt, and you can add the comfy knee-length shorts for a little extra. This way, you have an affordable pyjama set for summer.

The campfire style is perfect for warm nights and relaxing days. Some friends and family may not even realise you are lounging in your pyjama shirt.

To ensure quality, the cotton yarn is spun in-house. It produces a superfine yarn prized for its softness, durability, and absorbent properties. 

Those that run hot can stop waking up drenched in sweat and use this dress code to stay dry and cool on the hottest nights. However, it’s important to note this is not a pyjama set. The price only includes the shirt.

This satin pyjama set from CDLP strikes the right balance between comfort and sophistication. The matching long-sleeve collared shirt, and relaxed-fit trousers have an understated elegance that many will love. Some guys even claim these are the best men’s pyjamas they’ve ever owned.

Made from Lyocell twill, the fabric is soft, durable, and retains its colour. The pyjamas will stay looking like new, even after multiple washes while the shirt is trimmed in luxurious satin to ensure it adds to the casual elegance.

The pants have an elastic waistband to provide you with a comfortable, non-restrictive fit. The waist also features a drawstring, so you always have the perfect fit.

The shirt typically runs true to size, but be sure to roll up those trouser hems!


Polo Ralph Lauren Tartan Check Pyjama Set

DETAILS

  • Material: 100% cotton flannel
  • Elasticated waistband
  • Machine wash

The name Ralph Lauren is synonymous with relaxed preppy style – and this tartan check pair of pyjamas for men is a fitting reminder of why.

Dark green and navy blue plaid give this style a sporty, sophisticated appearance; but you shouldn’t get too serious when wearing these pyjamas. They also come with a fun ‘Polo bear’ logo on the chest.

Cotton fabric provides both warmth and comfort, which ensures your bedtime routine is comfortable through cold nights. A straight-leg design gives you freedom of movement, helping restless sleepers not get tangled in their pyjamas. 

These pyjamas are great for cooler temperatures but may be too heavy in the spring and summer.


Thom Browne Tartan Flannel Pyjamas

DETAILS

  • Material: 100% cotton
  • Elasticated waistband
  • Machine wash

Immediately recognisable thanks to the squared white applique logo, this set of flannel pyjamas from New York fashion king Thom Browne is bound to add a bit of pizzazz to your loungewear wardrobe.

The tartan design gives these a fun and stylish air; while the wide leg of the trouser allows for freedom of movement, whether sleeping or trying to get comfortable on the couch. 

Piping on the bottom of the trouser hem adds an irreverent touch, while the waistband is elastic, so you always get a comfortable fit. In true Thom Browne fashion – even in the privacy of one’s own home – these are cropped well above the ankle.


Tekla Off-White Oversized Pyjama Shirt

DETAILS

  • Material: 100% Oeko-Tex® cotton
  • Genuine MoP buttons
  • Machine wash

This pyjama shirt from Finnish textiles incubator Tekla resembles an oversized dress shirt: so much so that you can even do the morning coffee run in it – no questions asked.

Made from 100% cotton, the shirt is as comfortable and durable as your favourite t-shirt. A chest pocket, spread collar, and mother-of-pearl buttons give this a casual elegance – no matter whether you’re reclining at home or out to brunch.

Additionally, its softness only improves with repeat washing. A roomy fit ensures your movements are not restricted at nighttime, though the wide sleeves have a habit of riding up one’s arms – only a minor inconvenience.


Hanro ‘Night & Day’ Pyjama

DETAILS

  • Material: 100% cotton
  • Elasticated waistband
  • Machine wash

Hanro’s ‘Night & Day’ pyjamas are aptly named. The pyjama set works great for lounging and sleeping. 

The versatile set is made from 100% cotton for incredible softness and long-lasting durability. The piping on the shirt adds a slightly dressy touch, but it doesn’t interfere with the pyjamas ability to help you sleep comfortably at night.

The pyjama pants pull easily on, and stay in place, thanks to the elastic waistband. While this quality set isn’t super affordable, its comfort and style make it worth the price.

It is important to note that this pyjama set may run a little small, especially for guys with developed muscles.
