We share some tips to keep in mind for caring for your garments, especially pajamas.
Good things must be cared for, and for that, it is important to know how.
Men's pajamas in particular, and generally the rest of the garments such as polos, boxers, or men's t-shirts from El Búho Nocturno, result from a careful manufacturing process and a selective sourcing of materials, from which the results are evident: quality and detail, comfort and elegance.

Although our products are made to last, it is always advisable to keep certain guidelines in mind to preserve the quality of the garments. This will ensure that you can enjoy them for a long time.
In this note, we will detail how to care for men's pajamas made of both woven and knit fabrics. In particular, we will pay special attention to their washing. This is a key factor to consider for the lifespan of the clothing, even from the first wash. Many of us live in a hurry, and it is normal that sometimes we neglect things like garment care. Therefore, we recommend you take out a sheet of paper and a pen and take notes.
First of all, it is important to note that all garments have a label inside. There you will find washing, drying, and ironing instructions with “PROHIBITED” or “ALLOWED” symbols as appropriate.
If you can wash the pajamas in the washing machine, we recommend turning them inside out to better preserve their colors as well as any printed designs, if they have any. The fear most people have is that their clothes will shrink. To prevent this, it is advisable to wash in cold water or at temperatures no higher than 30 degrees Celsius.
Most of our pajamas are made of 100% cotton, a material that, although very absorbent and comfortable, as well as gentle on the skin, is prone to shrinking, especially on the first wash; so special care must be taken not to wash it in hot water to avoid deformation. In addition to pure cotton, there is a more economical line that combines 60% cotton and 40% polyester, which is more durable due to the synthetic component and wrinkles less.
On the other hand, we also have a select line of velvet pajamas—which would require a separate entry. Velvet is a much more delicate woven fabric than others, so we recommend carefully checking the inner label first; although it is always preferable to hand wash with cold water. If using a washing machine, we advise setting it to the delicate fabrics mode and using a gentle spin cycle.
If the pajamas can be ironed, remember to dampen the garments to remove all wrinkles. In any case, our woven fabrics do not wrinkle too much. Pay attention to the different functions and settings of your iron. Generally, there is always an option for more delicate fabrics. For velvet pajamas, iron by gently pressing the garment to avoid damaging the softness of the fabric. Then, use a brush.
Our pajamas invite you to feel comfortable and warm in your own home. They are made to enhance your well-being and make you feel at ease during that time of day when you can let your guard down and rest. Care for your garments as much as they care for you.
To keep this brief, we provide additional information in the form of points to remember:
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
- Colored clothes and white clothes should be washed separately. This will prevent garments from fading and damaging each other.
- Once the washing machine cycle ends, clothes should not be left inside for too long. The reason is that they will quickly develop a musty smell and will need to be washed again. It is also not advisable to wash garments too frequently (regardless of the type).
- Do not dry in direct sunlight, as direct sun exposure damages the color.
