Waking up damp in your pajamas? It's the fabric, not you.

If you sleep hot, you may have given up on real pajamas. Read what other women say about waking up soaked, and what to wear instead.

The drawer: sets folded away one after another.

1The drawer

I sleep hot, so I gave up on pajamas. Every time I wore a real set, the night went the same way. I fell asleep fine, then woke up in the dark, damp and restless, with the sheets stuck to my skin.

So the nice set stays folded in the drawer, and I wear the old tank top instead, even in winter.

“I've always slept in a loose tank and boxers/boy shorts, like even in the dead of winter. Otherwise I'll totally wake up sweaty and irritated!”

One woman put it like this:

“If I accidentally wear poly to bed, sheets and nightshirt are soaked through with sweat by halfway through the night and I'm waking up to change and air it out.”

I know the 2 a.m. outfit change. Wake up soaked, swap the shirt, air out the sheets, lie back down damp.

2What I tried

I did try. I bought a satin set that looked nice but felt like plastic. I tried a polyester set and was soaked before the night was half over. I tried a modal set that was supposed to keep me cool. I tried one so stiff and scratchy I couldn't wait to take it off. They all ended up in the same drawer.

“I purchased a set of satin pajamas like the ones in this post precisely once in my life, and oh my god they sucked! They’re sweaty and uncomfortable and I don’t know a single woman who’d wear those on a daily basis.”

These are super soft! I really like the feel of them. Unfortunately I do tend to get a little warm when I sleep, so I didn’t keep these- it’s too much warmth added and not super breathable.

“it feels like a million tiny needles when you put them on. [...] They're 70% rayon, 30% linen.”

3What nobody told me

Here's what nobody told me. It was never me. It was what I was sleeping in.

Your body gives off moisture all night. It either goes into the fabric or stays on your skin. Polyester takes in almost none of it, so the moisture stays on you. Before it even feels wet, polyester takes up 0.4% of its own weight. Cotton takes up 8.5%. Flax linen takes up about 12%.

That's why AmourLinen pajamas are 100% linen, made from European flax. Linen breathes, so air and moisture keep moving. If you think linen is stiff and scratchy, I get it. These are stone-washed, and they get softer with every wash. The people wearing them say so.

5The questions I had before I ordered

Who spends $200 on pajamas?
They cost more than my old tank top because they are European flax linen, 150 gsm, made by hand in a family-owned facility in Lithuania. Right now they are 40% off: $125 instead of $209. You also have 30 days to wear them and wash them at home: the 30-Day Risk-Free Trial. I have bought 2 and planning to buy more. Franciska B., Judge.me, Dec 31, 2025, Pajamas in White. Review link
Does it run small? Will it fit me?
Every set is handmade, so measurements vary slightly. Sizes go from XS to XXL (US 2 to 16, EU 32 to 46), with an elastic waistband and a drawstring. Not sure which size to pick? Use the Find Your Size tool on the product page. If the size is wrong, you have the 30-Day Risk-Free Trial. I ordered a Medium and it fits perfect. Franciska B., as above.
Will it shrink? Do I have to hand wash?
No. Machine wash at 30 to 40 degrees with a gentle detergent and let them air dry. They are dyed in two steps and stone-washed, so washed as instructed they will not shrink or bleed colour. Do not tumble dry. They're soft linen and wash well. Franciska B., as above.
Linen wrinkles and looks messy on me.
Stone-washed linen does not wrinkle much. If you see a few wrinkles, spray plain water on the linen and put it on right away. Most of them are gone. Or iron on medium, or just leave them. That is how linen looks.
Is it really 100%?
Yes. It is 100% linen, made from European flax, and the label says so. The finished set is OEKO-TEX® certified: tested for harmful substances. Clothing is truly handmade and as advertised. Ri Bentley, Trustpilot, verified, 5 stars, Oct 12, 2025. Product not named.

So maybe it's time the old tank top went in the drawer. I could wear a real pajama set again and wake up dry.

You can try them for 30 days, risk-free, and find out what a whole night in real pajamas feels like.

Before you order

Can I even sleep in a set?
Yes. They're made to be comfortable and soft, and made to last. They also look good, so people wear them as loungewear, or to go shopping. Long-sleeve shirt; long pants with an elastic waistband and a drawstring.
Is it see-through?
No. A buyer of the Dusty Lavender set wrote: “thicker linen, not see through” (Beata Irena, Trustpilot, 2023).
Will the legs be too long or too short?
The size table on the product page shows the measurements for every size. The size guide helps you choose the perfect size for you.
Are there pockets in the pants?
This set: none, shirt or pants. Snooze is the same set with two front pockets on the shirt; its pants have none either.
Will it fit my hips, chest or thighs?
XS to XXL (US 2 to 16, EU 32 to 46). Handmade, so measurements vary slightly. 30-Day Risk-Free Trial.
Is the elastic too tight?
No. The elastic waistband is not tight, and the drawstring lets you adjust it.
Linen is scratchy.
Stone-washed linen isn't, and it softens with every wash.
Will it look raggedy after a few washes?
Washed as the label says, it will not shrink or colour bleed, and it softens with every wash. 150 gsm European flax linen.
Will I look like I'm in scrubs?
Comfortable enough for bed, good enough to be seen in.
Is the colour as photographed?
Yes, though it can look a little different depending on your screen settings. A buyer: “The color varies a little, but that comes with territory” (Judge.me, Keefer B., 2023).
Do the buttons gap or fall off?
No. The buttons stay closed and stay on.
Will it smell of chemicals when it arrives?
The set is OEKO-TEX® certified: tested for harmful substances.
How fast does it ship?
Dispatch within 2 business days, FedEx. Free standard shipping over 200 USD / EUR / CHF. US orders ship DDP.
What if it doesn't fit, or I change my mind?
