Quality Sleep Begins with the Right Pajamas
Getting an adequate amount of sleep is one of the most important factors of our everyday health. It's recommended that adults aim for seven to nine hours of sleep a night for improved cognitive ability, a stronger immune system; the list of benefits continues. We don’t need to go on about why sleep is such an important part of life, as most already recognize it hits the metaphorical reset button for our minds and bodies. But, as with anything, there's always room for improvement. There's one simple thing you can do for a better night's sleep, and it just might surprise you. Have you considered the impact pajamas can have on one’s sleep quality?
Sleepwear Makes a Noticeable Difference
It’s been proven that sleeping in a cooler room and staying comfortable is better for sleep than being in a room that's kept too warm. The pajamas and bedding you choose can have a significant impact here. Additionally, the right material can have a positive impact on how well you sleep. Essentially, one of the simplest things you can do to improve your sleep quality is to invest in the right pair of pajamas! You may be shocked to find how such an easy change can have you sleeping more soundly. Now that you know, you’ll just have to decide on the style and material that suits you and the season.
Flannel Favorites
When it comes to cold weather, there’s nothing like slipping on a set of soft cotton flannel pajamas. Flannel is a great material for sleepwear -- it's able to provide warmth in even the coldest weather. Many of our flannel favorites are made in Portugal, a place that’s world-renowned for their superior quality fabrics. With fabrics that are triple brushed for extra softness that only gets better with each washing, flannel pajamas are the perfect, cozy winter favorite. Browse button front pajama sets, sleep shorts, pants, nightgowns, and more in soft flannel.
Seersucker Pajamas
Summer weather can make it difficult to sleep. Between too warm temperatures, and often too humid air, it can feel like every stitch of clothing is just plain uncomfortable. That’s what makes seersucker pajamas so wonderful. They are crisp and lightweight, and their super soft, puckery fabric naturally holds itself away from your skin, allowing air to flow through freely. Cool cotton seersucker pajamas are the perfect sleepwear to keep you comfortable all summer long.
Shortie Sets
For warm nights, you can’t go wrong with a shortie pajama set. A matching set of pajamas with shorts is casual and cool for when the temperature rises. These pajamas will give any nighttime routine a put together feel. Shortie sets are available in both our men’s and women’s sleepwear collections.
Cotton and Cotton Knit Pajamas
For us, the perfect all-weather sleepwear is cotton, without a doubt. Cotton fabrics can keep you cool with their breathable weave in the warmer months, and wick moisture away wonderfully. In the wintertime, cotton is wonderful for layering. It will keep you from getting too warm buried under piles of blankets on a frigid winter night, and when it comes time to face the chilly morning, cotton pajamas fit wonderfully under scratchy wool sweaters or cozy fleece robes.
Satin Pajamas
Satin is another pajama fabric that works well to moderate your temperature. Plain satin pajamas skim your skin with a silky smooth, cool touch that feels wonderful against summer flushed skin. For colder months, brushed back satin pajamas offer that same silky smooth outside that doesn’t get caught in your blankets while the insides offer cozy softness courtesy of the softly brushed cotton. Whether you want to stay cool or keep warm, there are several satin pajama options from The Vermont Country Store that can help you sleep sweet and sound.
