18 Best Men's Pajamas 2023, According to Style Experts

If you're not concerned about warmth, you'll love this buttery soft micro modal premium cotton blend. With a touch of Spandex, this set is comfy, cooling, and roomy. In fact, having slept in these pajamas since the summer of 2022, I now practically want to live in them. On my 6-foot frame, the pajama shirt in size M fits like my regular t-shirt and feels so smooth like a second skin. I also love the inseam of the pajama short hits just above my knees while leaving enough openings for airflow. More importantly, the seamless construction really let me rest without getting any itchy distractions.

Additionally, thanks to the blend of Pima cotton, Modal, and spandex, the overall fabric of this pajama set is perfect for any sleeping position. And as someone who sleeps “ugly” with limbs stretched out all over the bed, I really cannot appreciate enough the flexibility of Tommy John’s pajamas. That is to say, even if you’re in between sizes, these PJs will take care of your fit.

Lastly, in my experience of washing these PJs on repeat, I’m impressed by how well the fit and fabric have remained intact—no shrinking, no wear, and tear. The only downside is that I did notice the bright color has started to fade a little bit. But overall, I never had to worry about ruining them.

You can get these Tommy John pajamas in sizes from S to XXL and four color variations.

Never heard of Eberjey? Ask your mom, sister, girlfriend, or any female friend in your life about the brand that has a cult-like following for its comfortable-yet-stylish loungewear. Based on our testing, we found that this particular pair with a Henley top is a real deal, bringing us a good night’s sleep, every night. First up, the luxuriously soft TENCEL™ Modal fabric feels silky smooth, breathable, and even temperature-regulating. On a hot sleeper such as myself, this PJ’s fabric has been able to adjust to my body’s temperature to keep me cool when it’s hot and cozy when it’s chilly, like having personalized air conditioning around my body. Plus, I love that it’s lightweight like cloud and moisture-wicking, qualifies that have stopped me from waking up in a sweaty mess in the middle of the night

One thing I absolutely love about Eberjey’s set is its versatility. After waking up in the morning during the weekends, I often just easily wear the set's jogger and henley top as my loungewear during the day, and the fabric is even able to stay fresh throughout the day if I’m only staying indoors.

Available in 7 colors and sizes from XS to XL, you’ll really be able to treat yourself to a whole new level of relaxation and sleepwear style with these PJs.

As the best-selling men's pajamas on Amazon, this Hanes pick has over 6,000 five-star ratings to back it up. So we decided to grab one and test it in for a few months and found it’s worth every praise it has received at this price.

First things first, the fit. These pajamas strike a nice balance—they're not overly baggy, but they still give you that comfortable, relaxed feel. So, if you're looking for a set that's loose without feeling like you're swimming in fabric, these might just be the ones for you.

Speaking of fabric, Hanes just doesn’t disappoint: with a cotton and polyester blend, these pajamas feel thin and light like clouds, making them perfect for warm climates and those who need something lightweight to sleep in. The cotton used in these pajamas is also definitely breezy, which I’ve found to be a plus for hot nights. But if you’re looking for a snuggly PJ set, this is where that coziness falls short since the fabric isn’t too smooth.

Lastly, I have to be honest, the overall durability of the fabric left something to be desired: after just six wash and dry cycles, I noticed the stitchings and the seams had started to fall apart a bit.

So, in summary, Hanes delivers in their well-fitting, lightweight, breezy pajamas, but the fabric and construction quality could be improved. While not meant for every sleeper, we found them perfect for those who sleep hot or those who prefer to feel more free in their sleepwear.

Kick it old-school with this classic pajama set, which has a slim fit that won’t make you look like an overgrown child. When I slipped into the size medium, I noticed that unlike in some other PJs, I could lift my arms up without my top's hem lifting with me, and the sleeves didn't catch when I moved quickly. Talk about freedom of movement! The pants were equally fantastic—they are loose all the way down and the ideal length for my six-foot frame, with no pesky catching under my feet as I walk—thank goodness.

Plus, this classic J.Crew PJ set is made of lightweight cotton fabric to keep me feeling cool and comfortable. It is soft and relaxed-feeling, great for snuggling on colder days. Though the fit has shrunken a bit for me after several wash and dry cycles, the handsome look and heavenly feel are still going on strong.

And I must admit, I'm a fan of these easygoing, pocket-heavy PJs: there's one on the shirt's chest and three on the pants, great for carrying your small essentials, phones, or late-night snacks. In conclusion, the PJ set from J.Crew delivers an outstanding fit, ample pockets, and a classic handsome look. The cotton poplin fabric is soft, albeit not the most durable on this list.

Let's talk about these flannel PJs from L.L. Bean. First things first, the feel is absolutely heavenly. The cotton flannel fabric is thin yet warm, soft and has that fuzzy texture that makes you want to snuggle up all day long. Brushed on both sides, it also feels incredibly warm during winter. And the fit? It's spot-on: roomy without looking sloppy, on my six-foot body, the sleeves hit just below my wrist, and the pant legs flow straight down with minimal stacking around my feet.

Whether you're sleeping in or enjoying a lazy day at home (or both!), these L.L. Bean pajamas are up to the task. They provide just the right amount of slack, allowing a gentle breeze to keep you cool or giving you the option to layer up with an undershirt for extra warmth. Designed with convenience in mind, they also boast details like a fly, pants pockets, and elasticized waistband with drawstrings that I appreciate for both lounging and sleeping.

And that plaid style of these PJs is truly a classic, making you feel like you’re living in a cozy cabin in the woods, even if you're just relaxing at home. Along with durable constructions and stitchings, these PJs will also last for several years as they have for me. Although I did notice some light shrinking after my seventh wash and dry cycle in them, they still hold up well in fit.

Matching Pajama Tee: Stretch-Knit Bamboo Lounge Tee
Matching Pajama Shorts: Stretch-Knit Bamboo Pajama Short
Matching Pajama Shirt: Stretch-Knit Bamboo Long Sleeve

These breathable, temperature-regulating knit pajama combos of pants and shirts, tees and shorts made from bamboo will keep you cool and cozy. As a material, bamboo is great for hot sleepers since it is just as comfortable as cotton but is more breathable, durable, moisture-wicking, and less likely to retain heat.

Appropriate for all seasons and built to last with a pill-free design feature, the quality, and comfort outweigh the price point. Let us warn you though, once you plop these silky, breathable PJ sets on, no pants will ever feel the same. Really, in my experience of wearing these to bed, it is like wearing bamboo sheets wrapped around my whole body. I honestly sleep better—longer and more soundly—in them as a hot, sweaty sleeper.

I also love that Cozy Earth imbues stretch to its pajama fabric which not only helps counter piling but also gives the PJ flexibility for all sleep positions. The fabric’s quality is also impressive: I’ve washed them at least eight times and they still look brand new. While they don’t come in a classic PJ style and look more like loungewear, they are definitely sleeping essentials for anyone who sleeps hot.

These heavenly and luxurious PJ shirts and pants are the softest hug ever to hit your body. The fabric made of 96% Modal is so divinely soft with just enough weight to feel good, and I love how amazingly breathable these pajamas are as well, and most importantly the overall comfort they provide: I feel like receiving an instant bliss whenever I put them on, and long-lasting coziness into and throughout the night. Hence, when sleeping or lounging in sweatpants just wouldn’t do, put these pajamas on and instantly felt at ease.

Fit-wise, I love that the set looks somewhat “tailored”: the top looks like a button-up dress shirt, and is definitely a slim fit on athletic guys; the sleeves don’t reach beyond the wrist, and all in all the fabric doesn’t look baggy or slouchy. As for the pants, they fit and feel great even on beefy thighs, while the legs don’t stack too much at the feet on my six-foot frame. While you might find it a bit roomy if your build is thinner, there's nothing wrong with slightly roomy pajamas.

Sleepy Jones specializes in one type of product: pajamas. With several brick and morter stores and a booming online business at a few different retailers, you know you can trust the product. The result is impeccable tailoring and fit in a pajama set that is relaxed, soft and tailored. This is a pair of pajamas that doubles as day wear.

If you want something warm and classic, turn to this Nautica set. Made of cozy waffle-texture cotton-knit, this tee-and-pant set is a simple upgrade from ratty shirts and sweats, and has the insulation to keep you cozy on cold winter nights. However, because the style is not the classic PJ design, I do wish the length is longer in legs and arms.

Lunya’s washable silk pajamas have the soft feel you love, but without the dry-clean-only fabric tag that can be a total pain. Plus, the oversized T-shirt silhouette provides a modern look you won’t be embarrassed to be seen in. We also love the open neckline plus drop shoulder design which is great for relaxation.

It's time to start thinking about lighter loungewear. Enter this linen pajama set from bedding brand Piglet, which comes with classic details like pearl buttons, and is as cozy as your favorite pair of sweats. The overall fit is the most relaxing we've ever tested. Coupled with a lightweight build and a linen fabric that is breathable, you'll never lose sleep with these PJs on.

You'll look and feel like a boss in this comfy PJ set from Brooks Brothers It's an elevated, bold take on your nightly wear, and we love that it has a midweight that you'll come to appreciate while proving a five-stars-hotel-like coziness. The fit is tailored for a slim cut to appear polished yet slightly oversized and relaxed with an elastic waistband for custom size. Since it's wrinkle-resistant, I love packing these PJs for any overnight trip.

These pajama pants from Filson are zero tolerance when it comes to combatting the cold. Made with Thermolite® technology that insulates your body from the cold, these slacks provide warmth while remaining lightweight and soft with the well-designed micro-waffle knit. Better yet, it's made of wool and stretch as well, meaning it'll keep you cozy but also keep you moving if needed.

Woven into a soft modal cotton blend, this sleep hoodie will provide a trusted layer when the temperatures outside become frigid. The ultimate hack would be adding the matching pant to this hoodie.

Just like your summer bedding, switch up your pajamas with lightweight, breathable linen PJs. This chic set with a camp collar shirt can even be worn to the beach or out for a chill evening with friends when paired with minimalist leather sandals and some serious swagger.

Fruit of the Loom’s pajamas are affordable, classic, and no-fuss. With an open neck plus drop shoulder design, this style is casual and great for sleeping through hot nights with AC on. We also love how functional they are with a fly for late-night bathroom trips and a small chest pocket. And the fit is great: roomy, relaxing, and especially amazing on athletic guys.

These satin sleep shorts are affordable and have thousands of five-star reviews on Amazon. They look great for those nights that require something a tad sexier, smoother, and crispier than basketball shorts.

If a performance t-shirt is reinvented for sleeping, then it’ll be Sijo Home’s pajama tee. The fit is roomy and loose, and the lightweight fabric is made of breathable, cooling bedding materials that also will wick away moisture. We also love how stretchy they are for different sleep positions, for loafing about the house, or for running casual errands.
