When temperatures rise, choosing the right pyjama becomes crucial for restorative sleep. A 100% cotton men’s short pyjama is not just a functional choice — it’s a statement for men who refuse to sacrifice elegance even in the privacy of their bedroom.
At El Búho Nocturno, a Spanish family business with over 60 years of tradition and 3 generations of master tailors, we believe true comfort makes no compromises. Our collection of men’s short pyjamas is available from S to 5XL — with the same premium cut and quality fabrics in all sizes.
Why short pyjamas are the best choice in summer
The human body naturally regulates its temperature during sleep. A pyjama that is too warm disrupts this process and leads to restless sleep. The short cut allows optimal air circulation and supports the body's natural thermoregulation — especially important during hot summer nights.
Additionally, the short design prevents the unpleasant twisting of pant legs, common with long pyjamas. The result: a deeper, more restorative sleep without unnecessary interruptions.
Premium cotton: the foundation of nighttime comfort
Not all cottons are equal. Our pyjamas are made from 100% premium cotton with particularly long fibres, which gives the fabric:
- Exceptional softness — noticeable from the very first touch
- Excellent breathability — moisture is effectively wicked away
- Long-lasting — the fabric retains its quality after many washes
- Hypoallergenic — ideal for sensitive skin
Comparison: premium cotton vs. synthetic blends
| Feature | 100% Premium Cotton | Synthetic Blends |
|---|---|---|
| Breathability | Excellent | Limited |
| Moisture Management | Very Good | Poor |
| Skin Tolerance | Hypoallergenic | May irritate |
| Durability | Very High | Average |
| Sustainability | Biodegradable | Non-biodegradable |
Cut and Fit: craftsmanship you can feel
Three generations of expertise have taught us that the cut is essential. Our short pyjamas are designed to:
- Offer enough freedom of movement for all sleeping positions
- Not be too loose to avoid twisting
- Have reinforcements in strategic areas (crotch, underarms)
- Have a comfortable waistband that holds without squeezing

Frequently asked questions about men's short pyjamas
What sizes are available?
Our men's short pyjamas are available in sizes S to 5XL. All sizes are made with the same premium cut and quality fabrics.
Is 100% cotton really better for sleep?
Yes. Cotton is breathable, hypoallergenic, and naturally regulates body temperature. Synthetic fibres can trap heat and cause skin irritation — both harm sleep quality.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure your chest and waist and compare with our size guide. Our fit is more generous than the standard — if in doubt between two sizes, choose the smaller one.
Can I return the pyjamas?
Yes. We accept returns within 30 calendar days, provided the product is in perfect condition.
Do plus sizes have the same price?
Yes. At El Búho Nocturno, there is no extra charge for plus sizes. Same price, same quality — in all sizes.
