Why are Cool-jams PJs great for travel?

Cool-jams' award winning sleepwear is great for travel because its  lightweight, compact, wrinkle resistant and quick drying. In fact you won't find a more comfortable travel pajama anywhere. Once you try Cool-jams we know you won't leave home without them. 

What kind of fabric do we use for our sleepwear?
All of our Cool-jams wicking pajamas and nightgowns are manufactured using our exclusive moisture wicking  polymicrofiber smart fabric with incredible wicking and quick-dry properties. The fiber content is 100% polymicrofiber with the exception of our midnight color which contains 35% rayon to give it the melange look.  The hand-feel and amount of stretch is like a super soft cotton t-shirt material. The poly microfiber yarn we use in our fabric has advanced evaporation and thermo-regulation properties, which helps to reduce the body's temperature to ensure a great night’s sleep. In fact, testing shows that our Cool-jams fabric wicks and dries 4 times faster than cotton or poly/cotton. We've also tested every leading wicking sleepwear brand and found that there is no other brand with a more effective moisture wicking fabric than Cool-jams. Unlike other wicking fabrics, the wicking ability of Cool-jams is scientifically woven into the fabric, so the wick never washes out. This feature translates to a more comfortable temperature regulated sleep. Learn more about the science behind our Cool-jams Sleep Technology.

 

Why is Cool-jams sleepwear fabric better than other fabrics?

Regular cotton fabrics are relatively absorbent, but keep the moisture next to the skin because cotton dries slowly keeping you wet and uncomfortable. Polyester fabrics are not absorbent, thus keeping you hot and sticky. Cool-jams Sleepwear is made of 100% poly microfiber with superior wicking properties to absorb heat and moisture faster than cotton or polyester. Additionally, the fabric draws the moisture and heat away from the skin and then dries very quickly. In fact it dries 4 times faster than regular woven or knit cotton fabrics. Customers and experts alike tell us that Cool-jams are a great solution for women suffering from menopause hot flashes, for those living in warm climates, or for anyone just trying to stay more temperature regulated at night. *Note our midnight color has 35% rayon to achieve the variegated color effect.

To enhance the moisture wicking and quick dry features of your Cool-jams sleepwear, we recommend  having air flow in your room (fan or open window) and minimal or light bed covers.  Also never use fabric softener since it diminishes the effectiveness of our fabric.

How long is the dry time for Cool-jams?
The drying time for Cool-jams Sleepwear depends on several factors: room temperature, room humidity and the amount of moisture left in the fabric after washing. If you are hand washing, we recommend hand wringing first and then wringing inside a twisted towel for a faster drying time. Depending on all of the above factors, dry time can be 5 minutes (tumble dry) to 4 hours (hanging). Sorry that we cannot be more specific, but we can tell you that based on side-by-side testing, Cool-jams is the fastest drying microfiber sleepwear currently available in the marketplace. This quick drying feature is one of the many reasons so many customers purchase our sleepwear for travel and temperature regulation.

It is not a problem to put Cool-jams in the dryer as long as you do not use fabric softener or softener sheets which diminish the fabric's wicking ability. Also some customers in dry climates notice a bit of static when Cool-jams are placed in the dryer.  The dry time in an automatic dryer is 5 minutes or less.  

Why is our sleepwear fabric so soft?
The softness comes from a very thin micro-fiber yarn with four times the filaments of other yarns. When we manufacture our fabric we use hundreds of strands of this unique, breathable yarn which gives Cool-jams its silky, soft, cotton like hand-feel.
