the best sustainable sleepwear & loungewear brands
Are you looking for cozy new pajamas for some better shut-eye in 2024? Or is loungewear still your dress of choice? No judgment - it’s mine, too. I spend most of my days in sleepwear because some PJ sets I own are too comfortable to change out of. So why not spend all day in comfort? I’ve compiled a list of 15 sustainable brands that make several pajamas you can easily wear to the grocery store. Sleep tight!
WHAT TO LOOK FOR WHEN SHOPPING SUSTAINABLE pajamas & loungewear
When shopping for new pieces of clothing you want to experience ultimate comfort with, I always suggest looking for fabrics like GOTS Certified Organic Cotton, vegan silks, and Tencel. Bamboo & Modal are also great fabrics to sleep in, but not all are created equal. We made sure to include bamboo made in a closed-loop process where water and solvents are continuously recycled and modals that have higher environmental & quality standards. Dyes are also important and should be non-toxic. Finally, whatever you choose, you want it to wash well and maintain its coziness, which these brands are all known for doing.
How To Tell if Pajamas Are Ethically Made
Not only do you want the fabric to be sustainable, but you also want the workers to be paid a fair living wage. Therefore, sustainable brands will be transparent with you about who makes their clothing, which should be easily found on their website. We also like to look out for Sustainable Certifications, although a brand can be sustainable without them.
