π Cotton

My Tips for Choosing the Best Summer Sleepwear:
β
Silk or Tencel - Best for quality lovers and those in air conditioning; both keep your skin cool and comfortable.
β
Cotton-Linen Blends - Breathable and comfy, the ideal summer combo!
β
Modal or Viscose - Affordable and comfortable options that wick away moisture, so you stay cool and dry.
β
Double-layer Cotton - For classic cotton lovers, double-layer cotton is more breathable than regular cotton.
π« Avoid low-thread linen and pure polyesterβthese may look good but arenβt comfy for warm weather.
πΈ After testing SO many sleepwear sets from different factories, I finally found a few favorites that feel soft and luxurious. One top choice is Nantong Dongdi Textiles; they use Austrian Lenzing Tencel fabric that feels like a soft hug on the skin and gets even better with each wash!
