5. Winter Pajamas
There are so many cute and cozy looking winter pajamas available that it can make it hard to choose. Cotton and wool fabrics are effective at helping the wearer maintain temperature regulation because they are breathable. Cotton also absorbs and releases perspiration. It is durable but may wrinkle easily.

Blended fabrics, which include part synthetic, part plant-based and part animal-fibers, can be a good bet for keeping toasty. Winter pajamas come in a range of fabrics including natural fabrics, such as terrycloth, flannel and cotton, or synthetic fabrics like rayon and acrylic.

Flannel and terrycloth are varieties of cotton, although flannel refers to a structure of fabric and may be made from wool. The specialized structure provides more insulation and more warmth and as it is a natural fabric, it also breathes. Make sure to review the care instructions of specific garments.
