Frequently Asked Questions

What weight of flannel should I buy?

Mid-weight cotton flannel (4-5 oz) is the standard for pajama pants. Heavier flannel is too stiff; lighter is fine for warm-weather wear.

Should I pre-wash flannel?

Yes — flannel shrinks significantly on the first wash. Pre-wash in warm water and dry on medium before cutting.
