May 29, 2022

Sweet dreams.

Yes, you can be cozy and cool. From linen lounge pants, to sweat-wicking tees, to silk pajama sets, here are our top picks for cooling loungewear for relaxing to the max all summer long.

Women’s Loungewear

Luxe and sophisticated, this set of washable silk pajamas featuring a pair of 100% Mulberry silk shorts and matching silk tee offers a relaxed fit with a roomy silhouette and clean lines. Look perfectly polished, whether you’re making your AM coffee or putting on your evening mask.

Dress for bed in this easy cropped tank. Crafted from pure linen, it’s garment washed for soft, never-take-it-off texture. Match with our comfy linen bottoms for PJs, then style with jeans to run your errands.

Featherlight, silky-smooth, and exceptionally breathable, the CoolLife sleep set provides a completely unique level of comfort. By releasing 100% of your body heat, our special fabric continuously cools your body throughout the night to give you the best rest possible. Our tank and short combination is ideal for sleepers who prefer a little skin contact, and doubles as pretty loungewear. According to scientists, to fall and stay asleep, the body’s core temperature needs to drop by 1°C, or 2° to 3°F. This process induces sleep more quickly, and increases deep sleep by 10–20% (that’s the non-REM, slow-wave sleep in which brain waves slow dramatically and your body heals physically, recovers from illness, and deals with stress). Our CoolLife Sleep tech continuously cools your body by 1.8C/3.3F (19%) more than Dagsmejan Nattcool Sleep Tech T-shirt, thermoregulating your temperature throughout the night to deliver deep sleep, which is the very basis of wellness in waking life. Save 10% when you buy as a set.

Pure and breathable, our Solstice peached organic cotton jersey feels irresistibly soft against your skin. Ultra-comfy for lounging or sleeping, the romper’s silhouette is flattering for a range of body types, with a wide, cropped leg, adjustable shoulder straps, and a gentle V neck and back. Side pockets are topstitched to stay in place.

Men’s Loungewear

The t-shirt, perfected. The 45 RPM record changed music forever. It gave rise to a new class of creators and freethinking rebels, delivering one well-crafted hit at a time. Forty Five is rooted in this same spirit, homing in on the one thing they do best—classic, well-made tees built to be worn time and time again. Cut and pressed in Los Angeles’s Fashion District, their designs were workshopped over years to achieve the perfection of well-worn vintage t-shirts from the ‘60s and ‘70s. The Supima Crew Tee is as classic as it gets—familiar in look, but with a level of craftsmanship and thoughtfulness that allows you to wear it on its own with your favorite jeans.

Smart, stylish, sustainable—no one does linen as well as Alex Crane. Most folks know linen as a summertime staple, but the team at Alex Crane know there’s much more than meets the eye. They’ll tell you how linen is temperature-regulating, stain- and odor-resistant, stronger than cotton, and gets softer and softer over time. The linen they use comes from sustainable flax farms in France using zero fertilizers and just rainwater for irrigation. Washed with biodegradable softeners, each piece is summer-ready and about as good for the Earth as you can ask for. With its natural airy feel and richly-dyed color, the Bo Linen Shorts are great for sun-soaked vacations and summer adventures around town.

The go-to versatile short for everyday activity. Made in durable, mid-weight Textured Compression with a classic fit and easy stretch.

Durable stretch-knit softness designed for every-BODY.

The most comfortable chino shorts you’ll ever wear, our number one pick for takin’ it easy. Combine the comfort and softness of your favorite sweats with the tailored look of chino shorts, and you get the Easy Chino Shorts—so comfortable you’ll never want to take them off. These easy-going bottoms are primarily made with organic cotton that you can feel good about wearing, reinforced with linen for extra breathability. Perfect for long days in the sun, by the water, or anyplace where the only rule is to take it easy.

An effortless, everyday tee made of 100% organic cotton in a soft and stretchy jersey knit. With an easy, oversized silhouette and light, airy weight, it’s perfect for snoozing or just lying back. Throw it on over jeans in the morning, go all-in with matching pants or mix it up with the rest of our loungewear.

The first thing you’ll throw on, and the last thing you’ll take off. Our Prospect Tee is a relaxed fit crew neck, with a vintage hem stitch and our signature printed inside label—’cause who needs the itch? Photo Courtesy of Brooklinen

Soft, cozy, lightweight thermal textured knit.

A relaxed, quick-dry tee designed with a soft, heavyweight recycled jersey.

The ultimate sleep shirt, knit from soft organic cotton with classic crewneck styling.

Coastal-inspired Australian design with a laidback style. The folks at Rhythm specialize in that iconic easy-going vibe that you can find anywhere there's a beach closeby. They pull from the art, music, and surf culture that permeates their native Australia and distill it into a unique style that is at once universally coastal and undeniably Aussie. Made from a cotton and linen blend, the Classic Linen Jam shorts are meant for those days where the sun comes up and doesn't go down for 15 hours.

Unprecedented comfort Structured by strategic micro-merrow seaming for next-level comfort and figure flattery, the CoolLife Sleep Short keeps you cool, dry, and well-rested. Like sleeping naked or with only underwear on, but (scientifically) better. According to scientists, to fall and stay asleep, the body’s core temperature needs to drop by 1°C, or 2° to 3°F. This process induces sleep more quickly, and increases deep sleep by 10–20% (that’s the non-REM, slow-wave sleep in which brain waves slow dramatically and your body heals physically, recovers from illness, and deals with stress). Our CoolLife Sleep tech continuously cools your body by 1.8C/3.3F (19%) more than Dagsmejan Nattcool Sleep Tech T-shirt, thermoregulating your temperature throughout the night to deliver deep sleep, which is the very basis of wellness in waking life.

Classic fit short sleeve crewneck tee with our signature curved hem in 145 GSM cotton jersey with light slub texture.

The highest performance merino tee on the market is also the softest. It's called the 72-Hour Merino Tee because it has the comfort, durability, and odor-resistance to last three days of nonstop wear. To put it to the test, every year Proof grabs their backpacks and takes off on another epic adventure wearing only one t-shirt all weekend long, making sure it still reigns supreme as the best travel tee out there. This time Ben and Alex headed to southern Utah and met up with Rashad and Ron Frazier, brothers and owners of guided adventure company Camp Yoshi. Led by adventure expert and filmmaker Sinuhe Xavier, they all roamed the desert for three days in their 72-Hour Merino Tees. Spoiler alert: the tees kicked ass—watch for yourself in our latest edition of the 72-Hour series below. Now the question is, where will you take yours?

A classic look with an eco-friendly construction—this summer has never looked so good. It’s easy to think of an SSBD as a modern day invention, but the fact of the matter is it was inevitable as soon as Brooks Brothers introduced the buttondown collar at the turn of the century. It was only a matter of time before someone hemmed the sleeves short—just like the polo player’s shirts that inspired the collar—and the SSBD was born. Wellen’s take on this warm-weather essential hits every mark when it comes to comfort and style—it doesn’t hurt that the hemp and organic cotton build are super sustainable as well. With a relaxed fit that's a distinctly summery take on your favorite buttondown, this shirt is what we’re wearing every day the temp’s above 75°.

One short for every sport, the Kore Shorts have a classic athletic fit, falling just above the knee with an anywhere and everywhere versatility. Go commando in confidence with the breathable, boxer-brief liner.
