The Comfort, Calm, and Cosiness of Staying In
Sometimes, the best kind of day is the one you spend in your pyjamas. No rush to get dressed, no pressure to be productive — just slow hours, soft fabrics, and the kind of comfort that allows your body and mind to fully relax. That’s the beauty of a Pyjama Day — and it’s something we believe in wholeheartedly at British Boxers.
Whether you're enjoying a lazy Sunday, taking a well-earned mental health day, or celebrating a dedicated National Pyjama Day, there’s something undeniably soothing about spending the day wrapped in beautifully made men’s pyjamas or women’s pyjamas. And with our timeless, British-designed sleepwear, comfort never means compromising on quality or style.
So, why do pyjama days matter — and how do you make the most of them? Let’s dive into the joy of embracing loungewear life.
What Is a Pyjama Day?
A Pyjama Day is exactly what it sounds like — a full day spent in your favourite pyjamas, free from the demands of dressing up or heading out. It's not laziness; it’s intentional rest. Pyjama Days offer a rare chance to slow down, recharge, and focus on comfort, whether you’re catching up on sleep, reading a book, watching a film, or simply doing nothing at all.
With our fast-paced lives and constant screen time, creating space for softness is more important than ever. Staying in luxury women’s pyjamas or tailored men’s pyjamas all day is about reclaiming rest as a necessary and enjoyable part of your week.
The Importance of Comfort Clothing
We’re big believers in dressing well, even when you're staying in. A proper pair of pyjamas — the kind cut from crisp cotton or breathable bamboo — is not only more flattering than a stretched-out tee and old joggers, but also better for your sleep, skin, and mood.
At British Boxers, our men’s pyjamas are designed with a relaxed but structured fit, giving you room to move while still looking smart. Our women’s pyjamas offer elegance and ease, whether you prefer classic sets, shorts, or nightshirts. The goal? To help you feel as good as you look — even if the only person seeing you is the cat.
Why a Pyjama Day Is Good for You
There’s science behind why we love pyjamas. When you change out of your “day clothes,” it signals to your brain that it’s time to relax. But what if you never changed out of your pyjamas to begin with? That’s when your whole day becomes a ritual of rest — and a form of self-care.
On a Pyjama Day, you can:
Reduce stress and cortisol levels by eliminating decision fatigue
Enjoy full-body comfort, especially in soft bamboo pyjamas
Get better rest by keeping your body at an even, comfortable temperature
Focus on wellness without distraction or discomfort
And when you’re wearing pyjamas as stylish as ours, you might just want to make Pyjama Day a weekly tradition.
The Best Men’s Pyjamas for a Day In
Our men’s pyjamas are cut from premium cotton and bamboo — breathable fabrics that regulate body temperature and feel great against the skin. Whether you’re a fan of classic striped cotton pyjamas, prefer a bamboo jersey set, or like to pair pyjama trousers with a relaxed tee, there’s a British Boxers style for you.
Many of our customers also love pairing our men’s dressing gowns with pyjamas on slow mornings. It’s the perfect layering piece for padding around the kitchen, reading the paper, or brewing coffee in comfort.
Women's Pyjamas That Make Every Moment
For women, the world of pyjamas is no longer confined to tired old sets or novelty prints. Our women’s pyjamas are beautifully made with timeless designs and soft, sustainable fabrics like bamboo and crisp cotton.
If you run hot at night, our bamboo pyjama sets are an excellent choice — breathable, sweat-wicking, and effortlessly elegant. For cooler mornings, our cotton long-sleeve pyjamas offer warmth without bulk. And don’t forget our women’s dressing gowns for that extra layer of luxury.
Every piece in our collection is designed to help you feel comfortable, calm, and completely yourself.
Did you know there’s an actual National Pyjama Day? In the UK, it’s usually celebrated in schools and workplaces to raise money for children’s charities. Participants wear pyjamas all day as a fun way to support a good cause — and, naturally, we fully approve. Whether it’s the official holiday or your own personal one, Pyjama Day is a chance to bring softness into your schedule and appreciate the pleasure of slowing down.
Dressing Well, Even in Pyjamas
You don’t need to be “doing nothing” to wear pyjamas. In fact, many of our customers wear their pyjama trousers or sleep shorts for working from home, weekend brunches, or even quick runs to the shops. When made well, pyjamas can be part of your daywear, not just your nightwear. Choose a coordinated set or mix and match your favourite pyjama separates to find your style. Add a dressing gown or soft socks and suddenly you’ve got a full look — one that doesn’t compromise on comfort.
Long Live the Pyjama Day
In a world that’s always rushing forward, sometimes the kindest thing you can do is pause. Pyjama Days are a beautiful reminder that rest is essential, and that luxury can be found in the everyday — like slipping into a pair of British Boxers men’s pyjamas or women’s pyjamas and simply staying in. So, next time the weekend rolls around or you need a day to reset, give yourself permission to stay in your pyjamas. Turn the phone off, make your favourite breakfast, and let the soft fabrics do the rest. Your comfort deserves it. And we’ve got the pyjamas to prove it.
