Studies show a good night's sleep is vital for your physical and mental health, and general quality of life. If you're one of the 73% of U.S. adults who sleep in some sort of pajamas, it may be time to rethink the material your pjs are made from. If you don't currently sleep in pajamas, you might want to reevaluate that choice. Our team has thoroughly tested and reviewed many brands selling pajamas and narrowed it down to the 12 best brands and our favorite items from each.
Our top pick is Eberjey, for its exceptionally soft pajamas with classic designs and monogramming options. If you're looking for an option to help you stay cool, we recommend Saxx for its DropTemp Cooling Sleep Pants. They use ventilated fabric best suited for hot sleepers.
Regardless of your preferred pajama style, the brands below are the best places to shop for sleepwear. While this guide is geared towards roomier men's sizing, they can suit anyone. To complete your cozy outfits for home, also check out the best men's slippers.
Our 3 top picks for the best men's pajamas:
Staff Pick
Inspired by the brand's best-selling women's pajamas, the William Tencel Modal set delivers the same comfort for men.
Finding a 100% silk pajama set at this pricepoint is almost unheard of. And the fact that it’s washable silk makes it so much better.
If you're a hot sleeper, Saxx's DropTemp Cooling Sleep Pants can help you regulate your body temperature at night.
Eberjey is an elevated pajama brand that began as a place for comfortable lingerie, but has since expanded into men's loungewear. The Giselle PJ set was their first claim to fame for its super soft TENCEL Modal cotton blend, so Eberjey created its male counterpart in the form of the William set.
The William features a classic piping trim button-down top and pants with a functional fly closure and back pocket. It comes in eight solid colorways or two printed patterns, and should you want to add a personal touch as a gift, the top can be monogrammed with up to six characters.

Saxx is best known for its men's underwear, specifically its patented Ballpark Pouch to keep things in place, but the brand also offers an array of loungewear and sleepwear.
Outfitted with the underwear brand's patented BallPark Pouch, the DropTemp Cooling Sleep Pants use ventilated fabric best suited for hot sleepers.
Similar to the brand's underwear, the Sleepwalker bottoms also have the Ballpark Pouch. That means if you want to go commando, you can still keep everything in place. The Snooze pants are roomier than the Sleepwalker and have a drawstring waist and slightly tapered legs, but do not feature the Ballpark Pouch.

Tommy John is another underwear brand that has transitioned into all things apparel, including pajamas.
As one of Insider Reviews' most recommended underwear brands (and my own personal favorite), Tommy John succeeds at using different materials for different comfort needs. From traditional cotton blends to the brand's proprietary Second Skin fabric made from a silky smooth modal, these PJs are designed to fit your preferences.
Tommy John's products are expensive, but they're well worth it. It's one of the few brands that I've continued to spend my own money on after receiving sample products for test purposes. — Amir Ismael, style editor, Insider Reviews

Hanes began as a North Carolina mill operation in 1901 that produced men's and children's socks. These days, it's owned by Sara Lee Corporation (yes, the dessert company), and continues to make sturdy, utilitarian basics. While best known for underwear, Hanes also makes classic cotton pajamas for the budget-conscious, among other sleepwear options.
The Hanes 100% Cotton Flannel Plaid Pajama Top and Pet Set is an old-school two-piece sleep set made from brushed cotton flannel. The four-button top has a classic Buffalo check print and breast pocket. The bottoms feature an adjustable, two-button-waistband and a fully functional button fly.
Hanes also makes a lighter-weight traditional pajama bottoms combo. Their Plain Weave 2-Piece Pajama Set is breathable and soft (but not plush) and best for spring and summer. These may be too light for northern winters, unless you prefer to sleep cooler year-round.

Founded in 1912 in Freeport, Maine, L.L.Bean is a more-than-a-century-old heritage brand that helped popularize flannel pajamas.
Among the brand's pajama options are the popular Scotch Plaid Pajamas. Made from flannel produced in Portugal, the soft, plush 100% brushed cotton PJs are warm without being stifling and are generously cut for ease of movement while you sleep. I had a pair of flannel pajamas for nearly a decade that continued to look good year after year — no rips or tears, and the colors didn't fade.
If you're looking for something less traditional, L.L.Bean makes the Comfort Stretch Woven Sleep Pants, which are made from soft cotton poplin and a hint of spandex.

Dagsmejan uses natural fibers like wool and eco-friendly fabrics derived from eucalyptus to produce sleepwear geared towards how individuals sleep—hot, cold, or somewhere in-between with the promise of a better night's sleep. Its fabrics are custom-made, requiring the "most advanced knitters" only found in Europe, according to Dagsmejan's co-founder Andreas Lenzhofer.
For the Stay Warm collection, Dagsmejan took an already great insulator, merino wool, and combined it with Tencel, made from eucalyptus tree pulp, to create a product that's great at keeping you warm without being bulky. They are really light, yet provide a lot of warmth.
The company also has a line of cooling sleepwear called Stay Cool that's more breathable than cotton and better at wicking away moisture, as well as a Balance collection that helps maintain your body temperature throughout the night.

Jambys are a step up from the default sleeping uniform of old boxer shorts and holey, stained T-shirts. Their gender-inclusive boxer-style shorts have pockets and are made of soft, breathable modal French terry. The matching JamTees allow for plenty of ventilation so you don't feel constricted while you sleep.
It's the subtle details that make Jambys make some of the best men's pajamas, but their neutral style can suit anyone.

MeUndies is best known for its fun, colorful, and size- and gender-inclusive underwear, but its collection of pajamas boasts all the same features. Available in long-sleeve and short-sleeve options, MeUndies pajamas are all made from an incredibly soft Modal material, sourced from beechwood fibers spun in a facility using dyes with low environmental impact.

Cariloha is a Utah-based sleepwear and bedding company that prioritizes sustainability in all of its products by using renewable, pesticide-free materials like bamboo and organic cotton.
Cariloha's men's Sleep Pants are made from both bamboo and organic cotton and have a very soft feel. They have an elasticized drawstring waistband but don't have a working fly. Instead, you'll find three decorative buttons down the front. They're also wide through the leg and pool a bit at the ankle. The roominess is welcome when it's time for bed since they don't cling to the body. I found them very breathable, stretchy, and easy to sleep in.
Other great items to wear are the Sleep Crew Shirt and the Sleep Shorts, which both have a similarly loose and roomy fit for comfort.
