I received a set of Dagsmejan pajamas for review to see if they would help with my sleep. Dagsmejan pajamas are designed to help regulate temperature to keep you asleep so you ultimately get better quality sleep. Dagsmejan is a Swedish term that refers to the last days of winter when the sun melts the snow even though the temperature is still below freezing. It’s a fitting term since sleep requires a very specific temperature zone for comfort. Dagsmejan achieves superior comfort through the use of traditional and innovative fabrics such as merino wool, lyocell and micro modal fibers. I found them to be incredibly soft and comfortable.
Overview of Dagsmejan
Here’s a video overview of the pajamas. In this video, I’m wearing the top piece that was sent to me.
Ordering Dagsmejan Pajamas
You can order your Dagsmejan pajamas exclusively through their website. Shipping was fast. Mine arrived in less than a week and cam packaged in a high-end box like the one below.
As you can see there is a lot of thought and care put into the packaging.
Each piece is sealed in plastic to keep it clean during travel.
Here’s what they look like out of the packaging. The tags can easily be removed without a scissor.
How Much Do Dagsmejan Pajamas Cost?
For this review, I received the Nattwell sleep shirt and sleep shorts. Each piece retails for $79.90, which is much more than the typical pajamas you will find at Target or Walmart but these pajamas feel amazing. You also get free shipping and 14 days to try them out. If you don’t like them, you get a free return with full refund.
My Dagsmejan Findings
Dagsmejan pajamas are made with Nattcool Fabric. According to their website they are:
8x more breathable than cotton
– Dries in 1/3 of the time of cotton
– Releases water vapour 60% better than cotton
So if you normally sleep with cotton pajamas you are in for a treat.
For this review, I was sent the extra-large. I’m about 6ft. 4 inches tall and these fit well. The shorts I was sent were slightly loose but didn’t feel like they would fall off.
If you look closely you can see an upside-down triangle pattern on the shirt. It’s very subtle but adds some interest.
There are no tags with these pajamas so you won’t notice any irritation. The set I received is part of the Balance collection which has Nattwell Fabric. Which, as you can see below is mostly micro modal. It’s much softer than cotton, more substantial feeling than silk and stretches too.
My Dagsmejan Recommendation
I love how these pajamas feel. So much so that I have used the top during the day since it looks nice and no one would know it’s a pajama top. I also like how the shorts come with pockets. The sizes are true to fit. Yes, these pajamas are a bit expensive but they feel amazing still keep that feel after multiple washes. Dagsmejan recommends air drying your pajamas to extend the life. I accidentally put mine in the dryer a few times but it didn’t damage them.
If you want to look stylish and feel comfortable at night, these are a great choice. I would especially recommend these pajamas to people that sleep with a partner. Wearing these pajamas will help you create an ideal microclimate that will mean less fighting over the covers at night so you can both sleep peacefully.

Dēp Sleepwear Pajamas Review
Dēp Slēpwear is designed to target sleep issues that some people would never think of. It’s made of stretchy, breathable poly/spandex materials that wick away sweat and keep you dry while you sleep. Not only that, it’s form-fitting style is meant to reduce the distractions (and even the noise) that baggy clothes might create. Aside from having an integrated eye mask (meaning it’s built into the hoodie), the hood itself even reduces noise and yes, it actually works. It’s innovative and made by someone who is aware that the details matter. It is built to help you fall asleep sleep quickly and easily and it seeks to provide substantially deeper and more comfortable sleep. What more? It’s even antimicrobial to combat against bacteria and odor.
Overview of Your Dēp Slēpwear Options
Dēp Slēpwear currently has 4 style options. Two in black, available in men’s sizes and two in light blue, available in women’s sizes. They have an Everynighter Sleep Hoodie which is great to use and keep at home which retails for $119.00. Then they have the Traveler Sleep Hoodie. The travel hoodie actually has a looser fit so that you can wear it over your favorite shirt while you adventure. It retails for $129.00.
Dep Sleepwear specializes in tops/hoodies only, so these can be worn with your favorite pajamas. (We’ll be sure to let you know if that changes.)
My Dēp Slēpwear Findings
Whether you choose to believe it or not, the Dēp Slēpwear Hoodie is no joke. The unboxing/unpacking experience was simple. I liked that they didn’t use more packaging than was actually necessary since it’s great for waste reduction and cutting costs. The material is just WOW. It’s unbelievable. Material that is moisture-wicking and thermoregulating has a certain feel to it and that’s why I know that this material is the real deal but this fabric is also incredibly unique. It’s a little similar (not identical) to gym or sports training clothing but comes with it’s own distinctive characteristics. The craziest thing I remember reading about this before receiving it in the mail is that it’s noise reducing and it actually is. When you put on the hoodie, the outside noise is actually muffled to a certain degree. You have to understand: this is an incredibly THIN and lightweight fabric. Something like that requires some sophisticated innovation. The eye mask is amazing and I can appreciate that it’s generous in its size. I’m sure many of us have experienced those eye masks that missed the mark, by a lot. For those who aren’t accustomed to eye masks, the fact that it’s built in encourages you to use it, which without a doubt in my mind, will help you sleep. It’s easy to open your eyes and keep them open when you feel you aren’t able to sleep but having a mask is kind of very obviously telling you “just keep trying, you’ll get there.” Aside from the quality of the material, the quality of the design is lovely, especially in regards to the female attire. It’s really feminine and pretty and that’s something I can certainly appreciate.
My Dēp Slēpwear Recommendation
Click this photo to see the high resolution version so that you can really see the details.
I am genuinely impressed with this hoodie but I do suggest that you only actually wear this to sleep and sleep only (in particular if you’re a woman.) Because the fabric is really thin, wearing a bra doesn’t exactly work well in this. You’ll see that in my video review (yikes). In that sense, it’s not really flattering for a woman’s chest. I tried all sorts of bras with this but nothing looked subtle enough. And if you’re keen on keeping your nipples or your piercings concealed, this won’t do the job. Just for testing purposes, I also found that it can’t even hide a bandaid. That’s wild. It’s great for what it’s meant to do but I do suggest you keep it for use in the bedroom. This is a really cool technology-driven garment that creates a hell of an immersive experience. It’s basically a personal cocoon!

Cool Jams are pajamas designed with a unique lightweight moisture-wicking fabric, created with the intention to help you sleep cool and comfortable.
The pajamas are made of specially-engineered polyester fibers that are exclusively meant to enhance breathability. They’re engineered to pull moisture away from the body, by way of capillary motion and a higher rate of evaporation.
“Capillary motion is any flow governed by forces associated with surface tension. Some examples include paper towels, sponges and wicking fabrics. Their pores act as small capillaries, absorbing a comparatively large amount of liquid.”
This process allows moisture, as well as excess body heat, to easily move through the fabric to the outer layer, where it’s then able to more easily evaporate. By utilizing capillary motion, the pajamas allow for more efficient airflow technology. Cool Jams refers to this as the Moisture Transference System (MTS).
Overview of Cool Jams
I didn’t document the unboxing of the product this time around since the shipment was kept simple and the package was really small. I received my Cool Jams in a white plastic envelope shipping bag, and inside it was the top and bottom of my pajamas, both folded neatly. I’m someone who definitely likes more extravagant packaging, and branded packaging is even better still but you will not get that here, or perhaps that is only the case for small orders. Regardless, I can still appreciate the company’s ability to keep it simple and not utilize more material than needed to ship such a small item. If you’re an Amazon Prime member then I’m sure you’ve had moments where you received one or two small items in a massive cardboard box. Sometimes there just has to be a middle ground. Minimal packaging isn’t always a bad thing.
Your Cooljams Options
One of the things that initially got my attention was the crazy amount of pajama options that Cool Jams provides you with. And if some of those options seem inadequate, then they also have a MIX AND MATCH section, where they sell top pieces and bottom pieces separately. So, I’ll take me as an example: I’m a size Small in my torso, but a size Medium in my bottom half. Having the ability to choose is amazing because I get to arrange a perfectly fitting pajama set. Otherwise, I would have had to purchase a set in a size Medium, with pants that fit great and a medium cami top that was too big. I’m really pleased that they let customers mix it up if they feel so inclined.
👗 As a side note for ladies:
NO ADJUSTABLE STRAPS
The cami top you can see me wearing in the photos and video, doesn’t have adjustable straps. Measurement-wise, I’m lucky that this happened to work out just fine for me but if you often find you need to make adjustments, be sure to double check. I checked their website and it looks like no pajamas come with adjustable straps. It’s not a problem unless it’s a problem. Just be mindful of this when you’re order and be sure to try on the top as soon as you get it to make sure the fit is correct.
BUILT IN SHELF BRA (in some cases)
The other thing is that some of the pajamas come with a built in shelf bra. This is also the case with my cami top. If you don’t like these things, be careful and make sure the item you’re ordering doesn’t have it. On any product page, if you’re skimming, you can easily find what you’re looking for by hitting CTRL + F (if you’re using a PC) or COMMAND + F (if you’re using a MAC), then type in “bra” and if there’s no indication of the word “bra” existing on the webpage (usually it’s highlighted for you), then it means that particular product doesn’t have it and you’re in the clear.
— The color saturation of the fabric is rich
Upon opening the package, one thing that I liked immediately was the deep saturation of the color of the pajamas. I ordered black pajamas but as we all know, black can come in many (usually undesired) shades. Most of which are just never black enough. Cool Jams getting this aesthetic detail right is already awesome. Yay!
— They smell fresh and refreshing (out of the box and even several days after)
In addition to that, the pajamas have a certain scent—one that I find interestingly refreshing. They smell a little like incense to me but not entirely. Some people might think of how incense burns but it smells more like incense before it’s lit. It smells fresh and earthy, it’s honestly very difficult to describe. I’ve heard people mention certain scents associated with unpacking a bed-in-a-box for example but this is FAR different from any chemical smell I’ve ever experienced before. It didn’t smell chemical, it smelled natural. I assume that the scent associated with the pajamas is of the antimicrobial agent that the pajamas are treated with.
— They are Odor Kung Fu Fighting
It takes a few days before they need a wash and that’s because there was an intention there. Cool Jams does mention that the antimicrobial agent used to treat their fabric is powerful yet natural, which is comforting. I’m definitely curious to see how the pajamas perform in terms of odor control over time, being that the antimicrobial agent is said to last for up to 50 washes, which is a pretty substantial number. The antimicrobial agent isn’t just designed for odor, it’s also created to aid with fiber degradation resistance. Surprisingly enough, in terms of odor, I felt that my pajamas didn’t need a wash for the 7 days I wore them every night. That wouldn’t usually be the case with other clothes I’ve worn to bed, so that impressed me.
— It’s a premium moisture-wicking fabric
To answer the question of whether or not Cool Jams can take the heat, the answer is definitely YES. My most recent living situation includes a home without air conditioning and when working at night and sitting at the computer, working in the Cool Jams pajama pants felt more ideal than anything else. During sleep, I have woken up one night sweating but not sweating in the way I’m used to. I didn’t feel like I just stepped out of the shower. I felt all right. I do see and feel the difference that the fabric makes when sweat is present on the body and I do believe the pajamas are effective in wicking moisture, just as they say they will. The one night that I woke up in the middle of the night sweating, by morning, I was totally fresh and dry. That rarely happens!
— Super duper lightweight
The Cool Jams material is such a pleasant thing to feel against your skill. It’s light, airy, just barely there. There is no doubt that it’s a premium fabric but to find that in a fabric that is this lightweight is rare. That would explain the price though.
— They are the future! 👽 🛸
The fabric used to create these pajamas really is soft like cotton but it’s cool to know that it’s far from it—what these pajamas are made of is so much more technologically advanced. We can thank science for Cool Jams.
— That 30 day thing
You have 30 days to test drive these babies yourself and if sleeping hot is your problem, then I’d encourage you to consider it. That 30 day thing is: “If you are not satisfied with your sleepwear products for any reason you may return or exchange your item within 30 days.”
I see sleeping cool in your future.
Note: Since the fabric is technically a microfiber, it’s best to air dry your pajamas after washing them. This will ensure their longevity. If you do throw them in the dryer, be sure to use the “no heat” setting but be mindful of the fact that the pajamas could end up quite staticky, so use caution. For those who are anti-static (meaning it’s one of your pet peeves) you already know what to do: Use a clothing line to dry your pajamas instead.
The apparel company Under Armor just released their performance pajamas which Tom Brady apparently wears. The reason that these are being marketed as performance pajamas is that they claim to help with recovery. The are weaved with bioceramics that turn body heat into infrared energy that apparently helps with healing and restoration.
This sounds very similar to celliant technology which has been around for years. If you want more information about celliant, and other places you can find it check out my Celliant Post.
Below is a video overview of the Tom Brady Pajamas
I just purchased a pajama top and bottom in XL to try out. The pajamas come in a zippable box which is kind of fancy for pajamas.
Upon unboxing, you will find the pajamas along with a card that explains how they work and a little more information on the collaboration between Tom Brady and Under Armor.
Here’s a close up of the card that explains the TB12 and Under Armor partnership
Inside is the box is an XL size of the pajamas. I have a 34″ waist and these are a little loose around the waist. I’m also 6 ft. 3 in. and they are a bit short but it’s not that bad since the legs have taper towards the bottom. However I wish they would make a tall size. It is hard to find tall size pajamas. So far my favorite store for tall size pajamas is L.L. Bean. I have bought some Large Tall pajamas from Eddie Bauer in the past but the quality seems to have gone down hills as they don’t last all that long.
Below is a photo of the inside of the pajamas. As you can see they are made in Vietnam. You’ll also notice the hexagon shape which I believe is a way to call out their recover technology that is built into the pajamas.
Here’s another show of the inside that shows it in more detail.
Under Armor calls it the TB12 Recovery Technology. I have no idea what that means. It sounds technical but I can’t find anything specific about it.
Here’s what they do say about the TB12 recovery technology:
HOW TB12 RECOVERY TECHNOLOGY WORKS
Far Infrared is a type of energy on the infrared spectrum that has several benefits for the human body. TB12 technology was developed to harness it even when you’re resting. The soft bioceramic print on the inside of the garment absorbs the body’s natural heat and reflects Far Infrared back to the skin. This helps your body recover faster, promotes better sleep, reduces inflammation, and regulates cell metabolism.
I am fairly certain that this bioceramic is the same as or very similar to celliant technology. The Bioposture mattress is the first mattress to incorporate Celliant in their mattress and the beauty of that is that you don’t need to wear the same pajamas every night to get the benefits.
Findings
These pajamas breathe extremely well, just like you would expect from Under Armor products. They are light and stretchy so you don’t feel constricted while sleeping in them. During the winter months in Minnesota, I usually always wear my flannel pajamas to bed, however I may start switching to these as they give you more freedom of movement.
