Over the past five years, Men’s Health editors have tested every pajama set worth sleeping in, but very few deliver dreamy comfort and high quality like Tommy John. That’s because the brand’s Second Skin Set, a pocket tee and plaid pant combo, earns its name with a silky modal-spandex blend that feels buttery smooth, stretches just right, and breathes all night.
I’ve worn this all year and it’s still my go-to for bed time. The fabric drapes cleanly off the body with a relaxed fit that flatters without clinging. It never overheats like flannel pajamas, never itches or pulls, even after dozens of washes. Plus, the stretch makes it convenient for spreading out across the couch, reaching for the remote, or heading downstairs for coffee. What also sold me on this pair was the waistband on the pants. It’s built with a non-restrictive band that stays put without digging into my waist or folding over.
I usually air dry mine so it lasts longer, but even on a low tumble, it’s resistant to fading and shrinking. The set runs a bit warm for guys who sleep hot in peak summer. It’s not heavy, but it’s not as light as a linen or jersey knit. But for that second-skin softness, Tommy John’s set makes every other pair feel like a backup.
