I caught Zzzs in sustainable sleepwear from brands that use organic cotton and other natural materials, are eco-friendly, and size-inclusive, too. These are my reviews of fit and comfort overnight for each.
When it comes to pajamas, I’ve never been much of an old t-shirt and gym shorts kind of gal — maybe it’s because I work from home, but I want whatever I sleep in to be cute enough to wear on an impromptu dog walk or to pass for acceptable daywear if I need to hop on a Zoom. While I love a traditional matching button-down and pants set or a classic cotton nightgown, whenever I add to my pajama drawer I’m usually prioritizing versatile, comfortable options that make me look put together and feel absolutely luxurious against my skin. And of course, whatever I’m sleeping in needs to be made from the best materials — breathable, clean, and organic fabrics that won’t trap heat, odor, or sweat are essential for any clothing I wear all through the night and then straight through the next day. Is that so much to ask?
Why shop for sustainable and organic pajamas?
It turns out that what we sleep in is just as important as what we sleep on. Synthetic fabrics like rayon, polyester, and acrylic have all been found to contain PFAS, “forever chemicals” that don’t ever break down after being absorbed into our bodies and the earth. These chemicals have been linked to a number of serious health concerns, like asthma, cancer, and endocrine disruption. But because PFAS are also often used to achieve textile enhancement properties (wrinkle-resistance, water-repellant, quick-drying), they can be found in some natural materials like non-organic cotton as well. Which is why choosing certified organic fabrics that have been cleared for PFAS use is so important.
What are the benefits of organic and natural fiber pajamas?
First, let’s talk breathability. Natural fibers like organic cotton, linen, or bamboo allow air to circulate around your body, which helps regulate temperature as you sleep. That means less waking up in a sweaty tangle of sheets and more uninterrupted, cozy rest. Unlike synthetic fabrics, which can trap heat and moisture, natural materials keep things fresh and dry — even on warm nights.
Then there’s the weight and feel. Natural fiber pajamas often have a softer, more luxurious drape that gets better with each wash. Whether you like crisp and cool or warm and plush, you can find a natural fabric to match your preference — and they won’t weigh you down or cling like synthetic blends often do.
Durability is another plus. While fast fashion sleepwear can pill or stretch out quickly, high-quality organic PJs tend to last longer and hold their shape. Because they’re made without harsh chemical treatments, the fibers stay strong without breaking down prematurely — saving you money and reducing waste.
And here’s the kicker: Many synthetic pajamas are treated with chemicals like PFAS (also known as “forever chemicals”) or flame retardants, which can act as endocrine disruptors and have been linked to hormone imbalance, fertility issues, and more. Organic sleepwear avoids these altogether, giving you peace of mind that you’re not absorbing hidden toxins night after night.
What are the relevant certifications for organic PJs?
When shopping for organic pajamas, certifications are your best friend. They help ensure that the materials used are grown and processed without harmful chemicals, that ethical labor practices are followed, and that the finished garment is safe for you and the planet. Since terms like “natural” or “eco-friendly” aren’t regulated, looking for official certifications is the most reliable way to verify a product’s sustainability claims.
Here are some of the most relevant certifications to look for when buying organic PJs:
- Certified Organic by USDA or similar national bodies: This ensures the raw cotton or fiber used in the pajamas was grown without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, or fertilizers.
- GOTS (Global Organic Textile Standard): The gold standard for organic textiles. GOTS ensures that the entire production process—from growing the cotton to dyeing and sewing the garment—meets strict environmental and social criteria. It also prohibits the use of toxic dyes, heavy metals, and GMOs.
- OEKO-TEX® Standard 100: This certification tests for harmful substances in textiles. Even if a product isn’t made from organic fibers, OEKO-TEX certification means it’s been independently verified to be free of chemicals known to be harmful to human health.
- MADE SAFE®: A newer but growing certification that screens products for toxic chemicals and pollutants that could impact human health and the environment. A “Made Safe” label on your pajamas means peace of mind.
- Fair Trade Certified: While not specific to organic content, this certification guarantees that workers involved in the garment’s production are paid fairly and work under safe conditions. It’s a great complement to organic certifications.
How to choose the best pajamas for you:
When it comes to choosing the best pajamas, it’s all about finding the perfect blend of comfort, seasonality, and personal style. Start by thinking about the time of year — lightweight, breathable fabrics like organic cotton, linen, or bamboo are ideal for warm weather, while cozy flannel or thermal cotton is perfect for cooler nights.
Next, consider your preferred style: Some people love the effortless feel of a flowy nightgown, while others gravitate toward the structure and coverage of a matching pajama set. Think about what makes you feel most at ease as you unwind. Fabric choice is key — natural, breathable materials like organic cotton, TENCEL™, and modal are soft on the skin and better for those with sensitivities.
Pay attention to the fit, too: Waistbands, buttons, and elastic should be secure but never restrictive. Bonus features like pockets, adjustable waists, or machine-washable designs can make all the difference in your bedtime routine.
And for those who care about sustainability, look for brands that use ethical production methods and carry certifications like GOTS or OEKO-TEX. The best pajamas are the ones that feel effortless, match your lifestyle, and help you ease into sleep in total comfort.
Our criteria & methodology:
The Good Trade team hand-picked sustainable brands with pajama offerings for this test — and I was sent the ten options below for review. I slept for multiple nights in each set, and made notes on fit and comfort (including breathability, softness of materials, and warmth).

1. Pact
Best For | Affordable loungewear
Size Range | XS – 3XL
Price Range | $28 (tank top) – $154 (sleep set)
For the perfect affordable loungewear, look no further than Pact’s organic sleepwear. All Pact apparel is made with GOTS certified organic cotton in fair trade factories. And we’re big fans of Pact’s easygoing styles for everyone who loves sleeping in undies and basics (we see you!). I’ve had my eye on the Staycation Sleep Pant and Staycation Short Robe for a while because the one perk of WFH is making little cozy moments during stressful deadlines or meetings. (It’s not quite a staycation, but a girl can romanticize, right??) The brand did me one better and sent me the set along with the Cool Stretch Cropped Lounge Tank and Short set, and the Cool Stretch Lounge Jumpsuit which is basically everything my puttering-about-the-house dreams are made of. The one thing all of these pieces had in common is that they feel like your favorite, well-worn tee while looking structured and stylish. 10 out of 10 for this carbon-neutral brand for getting it exactly right.
2. MATE The Label
Best For | Versatile sets
Size Range | XS – 3X
Price Range | $48 (sleep tank) – $98 (sleep pant)
MATE the Label’s sleepwear pairs snuggles and sustainability, working solely with eco-friendly fabrics in downtown Los Angeles. Their sleepwear is made from 70% TENCEL™ Lyocell and 30% organic cotton, and it feels as effortlessly cool as their models make it look. I tried the Tencel Sleep Tank, Shorts, and Pant in Truffle, and I’ve already had to wash everything three or four times because I keep reaching for them again and again. The fit is kind of slinky and loose without making strange shapes or feeling bulky. Plus, sleeping in them is perfect for anyone who runs hot. I have gone from bed straight to the yoga mat to a dog walk multiple times, swapping out the bottoms for cut-offs if I needed to run to the store. The climate-neutral brand has also achieved a certified B Corp status (you can read more about their sustainability initiatives in their yearly impact report). While this brand is a bit pricier than I’d usually like, I can see that the cost-per-wear already pays for itself.
3. Boody
Best For | Sensitive skin & cooling
Size Range | XS – XXL
Price Range | $36 (cami) – $90 (robe)
Boody’s garments, including its sleepwear collection, are crafted from viscose derived from organically grown, nontoxic bamboo. This means I was expecting super-soft, highly breathable, and hypoallergenic fabrics that feel so good on the skin — and the brand delivered. I tested out the Goodnight Raglan Sleep Shirt and Shorts, and these were hands down the most cooling fabrics of the bunch. The material reminds me of a performance fabric, only without the PFAS! The top is definitely a heavy hitter imho, and can easily go from sleep to day wear to the gym. I got the set in a beautiful pale gray-blue called Dove, but I love all of Boody’s colorways, which are a mix of neutrals and muted pinks and greens. Lightweight, with a loose, elegant drape to the fit, these are big winners that I’ll reach for again and again.
4. This is J
Best For | Bold & colorful patterns
Size Range | XS – XXL
Price Range | $99 (nightie) – $343 (4-piece set)
Make way for This is J and its wide selection of stylish patterned loungewear and sleepwear for the whole family. They have so many styles and prints it was actually kind of hard to choose! I ended up with the Oversized Tee and Harem Pant in stripes, which is definitely on the mellower side of their options (but more in line with my closet!). If you don’t know about bamboo fabrics, here’s the deal: Bamboo is soft. Soft, drapey, and cooling. It reminds me of performance fabrics — only without the PFAS ruining the party. Whether you’re on the hunt for sustainably made PJs, robes, or even maternity wear, there’s something at this brand for everyone. Each garment is handmade thoughtfully in Canada using high-quality bamboo viscose which is moisture-wicking and soft to the touch. Everything is machine washable and dryer friendly, so these beautiful patterns will remain bold and won’t pill as you live in them!
5. Under The Canopy
Best For | Elevated sweats
Size Range | XS – XL
Price Range | $22 (swing tank) – $70 (organic waffle robe)
Under The Canopy’s sleepwear collection is luxe, buttery soft, and’ll have you snoozing in serene comfort all night long. When I put on the Organic Tapered Jogger, Organic Swing Tank, and Organic Short Robe I truly couldn’t believe the quality of these pieces at their price point. Everything is cozy and warm, with a structure that looks and feels well-made. The relaxed fit with no tags is especially clutch for anyone sensitive to that sort of thing. These pieces are all available in complementary colorways so you can easily go monochrome or mix and match for a look that feels like wearing sweats but looks like a fancy lady about to have tea on her vacation veranda. Under a…canopy, perhaps?
6. Coyuchi
Best For | Romantic sleepwear
Size Range | XS – L
Price Range | $18 (sleep mask) – $148 (pajama set)
I bought my mom a robe and nightgown set from Coyuchi years ago and I’ve been itching for my own ever since. Their sleepwear is just exactly what I’m always longing for as a comfort-seeking minimalist. I tried the Isla Organic Cotton Nightgown and Isla Organic Cotton Robe in surf chambray, and they are just as gorgeous in person as they are online. There is something timelessly romantic about this set — it feels ideal for a summer weekend morning spent making pancakes and then eating them in the garden. The brand’s breathable organic cotton pajamas are GOTS and MADE SAFE certified, and sewn in a factory that recycles 98 percent of its wastewater for the ultimate sustainable snooze. Plus, Coyuchi makes organic cotton bedding so you can upgrade your whole sleep routine however you please. The TGT team also loves their cozy robes made in a variety of weights so you can enjoy being wrapped up in soft, organic comfort no matter the season or region!
7. Quince
Best For | Linen sets
Size Range | XS – XL
Price Range | $20 (sleep mask) – $170 (robe)
Quince is one of our all-time favorites for finding high-quality, luxury garments at affordable price points, and the 100% European Linen Long Sleeve Pajama Set is a must-have for my Coastal Grandma capsule dreams. There are four colorways that all come with elegant contrast piping to give just the right amount of structure to the lived-in coziness that linen is known for — rumpled but chic. This set is generously sized, so I wasn’t having to readjust anything while I slept or lounged with my coffee. The feel is lightweight and ultra-soft, but there’s probably enough fabric to make these feel like more of a transitional season set for me than one for the super hot or very cold months. Then again, when you love something enough, you’ll always find a way to make it work!
8. Clementine
Best For | Organic silk sleepwear & accessories
Size Range | XS – XL
Price Range | $308 (sleep shorts) – $701 (silk robe set)
Designed in Los Angeles from a desire to create organic sleepwear that won’t harm you (no chemical washes, microplastics, or pesticides here!) — and could actually offer health benefits, Clementine Sleepwear is a true standout when it comes to holistic luxury. The 100% organic mulberry silk and nontoxic dyes never go through stripping chemical washes, leaving them rich in natural amino proteins that help heal skin and restore hair. Anyone prone to breakouts, rashes, or unruly bedhead will particularly love these smooth, soft products. I tried the Organic Silk T-Shirt Dress in pearl white (which has a chic, oversized fit and felt like a dream), and the Organic Silver Ion Silk Sleep Mask which is antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and anti-fungal, and aids in accelerated healing and tissue regeneration — ideal for anti-aging benefits and treating scar tissue. Both come in their own storage box made of FSC certified and recyclable materials. The boxes not only protect the silk, but opening them to get out the sleep mask each night made me feel especially fancy.
9. Organic Basics
Best For | TENCEL™ Modal Sleepwear
Size Range | XXS – XL
Price Range | $74 per piece
Certified B Corp Organic Basics is all about sustainability plus longevity — and since I’m often wearing my jim jams through the night and into the next day, this is essential for me! Founded in Denmark in 2015, these sustainable sleepwear pieces are not only a classic style that will withstand any trend cycle, but are also low on waste and impact. The fabric is a blend of organic cotton and TENCEL™ Modal, a conscious mix of natural fiber with a recycled one that creates the smoothest, silkiest feeling against your skin. I’m wearing the Core Sleep Shirt and Pants in pink stripe, which is super cute in person while also reading like “I got dressed for this!” on Zoom meetings. Basically perfect.
10. MagicLinen
Best For | Linen pajamas & robes
Size Range | XS – XXL
Price Range | $76 (linen shorts) – $143 (linen robe)
There’s something undeniably soothing about slipping into linen at the end of a long day — and MagicLinen has absolutely mastered the art. I recently fell in love with their linen pajama set, a 100% European flax linen dream that feels just as good as it looks. Handcrafted and stone-washed for that soft, lived-in feel, this set is airy, breathable, and gentle on my skin. I appreciate that it’s OEKO-TEX® certified, meaning I can rest easy knowing it’s free from harmful chemicals. What makes MagicLinen stand out isn’t just their commitment to sustainability — it’s their singular focus on linen. They don’t dilute their mission with a million fabrics; they’re here to make linen better than anyone else. Every piece is handmade, with visible care in the construction, and I love knowing I’m supporting a brand that values slow, intentional craftsmanship.
