Most of us don't give much thought to what we sleep in. Some might say that the best pajamas for men are old tees, sweatpants, or even just underwear. But, here's the truth: what you wear to bed can impact your sleep quality. Pajamas aren't just about aesthetics — although they can certainly help you look and feel your best — they also set the tone for how well you rest1.
Why Put Away the Athleticwear and Sweats?
Athletic gear and sweatpants are meant for movement, not relaxation. Nylon, spandex, polyester, and other fabrics commonly found in activewear and everyday clothes (and even your bed sheets) can cling, overheat, and keep you awake when all you want to do is melt into the mattress2. And while sleeping in your underwear might seem like a quick and easy fix, it will leave you cold and scrambling for a blanket throughout the night.
What to Wear Instead
When your body doesn't have to work as hard to get comfortable, you shift from an active state to true rest. Crafted specially for sleep, Eberjey pajamas invite you to slow down, decompress, and step into a softer, more peaceful version of yourself.
Our signature fabric, TENCEL™ Modal, is made from naturally breathable and temperature-regulating wood pulp. It's smooth, light as air, and buttery soft, keeping you cool when the room is a little warm and cozy when it's cold. There are no rubbing seams or scratchy tags, just softness that envelops you in a gentle hug. This is sleepwear designed for unwinding with a good book or drifting into that deep, lulling kind of sleep that only comes when your body can fully relax.
Our Modal fibers and other soft, breathable fabrics are ideal for promoting better sleep, providing steady comfort that helps you stay asleep longer and deeper. When shopping for the best pajamas for men, look for materials that help wick away moisture, regulate temperature, and flow with your body, such as natural and sleepwear-specific textiles3.
Our William TENCEL™ Modal Long PJ Set offers the classic softness of your favorite tee, with just enough stretch to glide over the skin with zero cling or bulk. It has that timeless, nostalgic look of contrast piping that's perfect for lounging with coffee on a slow Sunday morning.
The Henry TENCEL™ Modal Short PJ Set and Henry TENCEL™ Modal Long PJ Set are all about effortless ease. There are no buttons, just a clean, minimalist crew neck top and relaxed shorts or pants that drape beautifully and feel even better. These are the pieces you climb into at the end of the day to instantly wind down into your evening.
At Eberjey, we craft the finest pajamas for men because we understand that rest is a powerful act of self-care. Our pieces aren't flashy, only purposeful. Whether you're picking out a gift for someone you love or adding more softness to your routine, our sleepwear sends a message that's both thoughtful and personal. We want you to rest. We want you to feel good. Your downtime matters.
For travel, our flowing sleepwear makes packing effortless, saving you stress and letting you carry that feeling of home with you. Whether you're staying in a five-star hotel or sharing a cramped rental with friends, you'll have a cozy pajama set that will help you feel at ease wherever you are in the world.
There's no better way to elevate the mundane than by being intentional in your choices. Pajamas might seem like a minor detail in your routine, but when your clothes say "relax," the body listens. In a world that never slows down, choosing to soften the edges of your day and slip into pieces made with care creates a rare space for real rest. And that is what great sleepwear should do.
