What are the pros and cons of different pyjama materials?
Smooth cotton: Cotton woven with a smooth flat surface lets the air circulate and feels wonderful against your skin. However, it doesn't absorb moisture, so leaves the sweat on your body. That means cotton doesn't get stinky, but it may leave you feeling clammy.
Brushed cotton: The classic pyjama fabric. It's light enough to let the air circulate, warm enough to keep out the chill, soft enough to be cosy, and slightly better than smooth cotton at absorbing moisture. It's also durable and retains its shape much more effectively than jersey or fleece.
Flannel: Flannel is brushed on both sides while it's being made, so you get twice the warmth and comfort. It's extremely durable (flannel PJs can last a lifetime), offers lots of support and looks superb, especially when made from high-quality cotton. However it can be too heavy for wearing in bed.
Fleece: Fleece is made for warmth without weight, and can be made from all sorts of natural and synthetic ingredients. It's lighter and more affordable than flannel, making it very popular for onesies, but it's less luxurious and durable, too.
Jersey: Jersey pops up everywhere, from smooth thick onesies to thermal long johns - and, of course, T-shirts. It's affordable and very stretchy, but may not last very long. Great for wearing in bed and under other clothes, especially when woven from a synthetic mix designed to absorb moisture.
Satin: You can't get much more luxurious than satin (well you can, but real silk costs a bomb). There's an affordable satin set in our line-up, which is woven from viscose and machine washable. More expensive satin tends to need hand-washing or even dry-cleaning, so check before you buy.
