Sleep T-Shirt – The Simple Solution

Short answer: A sleep t-shirt is the simplest form of nightwear: one soft, loose t-shirt that lets you move freely and gives plenty of air. In bamboo viscose it also keeps you dry and evenly warm, so you avoid waking up clammy in the middle of the night.

Why the sleep t-shirt is so popular

No tight waistbands, no pieces that twist – just one loose top. For men, a long, loose style is the obvious choice; see the range of sleep t-shirts for men. Many women sleep in an oversized t-shirt or instead choose a short style from bamboo nightdresses for women.

The material decides your night

An old cotton t-shirt gets heavy and clammy when you sweat. Bamboo viscose wicks the moisture away and dries quickly, so you stay dry. Read how it works in the guide to bamboo and temperature regulation.

Add layers with the season

In summer the sleep t-shirt is often enough on its own. When it gets colder, men can add pyjama bottoms, and you will find the rest of the range under bamboo nightwear for men. Also read the guide to bamboo nightwear for men.

Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between a sleep t-shirt and an ordinary t-shirt?

A sleep t-shirt is typically longer and looser in the fit, so it does not press or twist when you lie down. The material is chosen to breathe all night.

Is a sleep t-shirt enough as nightwear in winter?

For hot sleepers it often is, especially with a good duvet. If you get cold easily, you can add pyjama bottoms in the same breathable material.

Why choose a sleep t-shirt in bamboo?

Bamboo viscose is softer than ordinary cotton and wicks sweat away from the skin, so you avoid that clammy feeling in the middle of the night.
