It is TENCEL lyocell, a plant-based fiber made from wood pulp in a closed-loop process. It feels smooth and cool and breathes better than cotton or polyester.

Is it good for hot sleepers?

Yes. The fabric regulates temperature and wicks moisture, so it suits warm bedrooms and summer. It is not a warm set for cold rooms.

How should I wash it?

Wash cool on a gentle cycle and avoid high heat in the dryer, which shrinks and roughens TENCEL. Line drying keeps the drape and limits wrinkling.

The shirt is a tailored button-down and the shorts have an elastic waist, so the fit is relaxed but neater than jersey pajamas. Check the size guide, as the shorts are cut short.

A short-sleeve button-down shirt and matching shorts with an elastic waistband. Tops and bottoms are not sold separately.

How does it compare with cotton pajamas?

It is lighter, smoother and cooler than cotton, and drapes more, but cotton is more durable and easier to wash. Choose this set for warm nights and a dressier look.
