Bamboo pajamas are the perfect answer to a cool and comfortable night’s sleep. Bamboo sleepwear makes a particularly great gift for women over 50, who often suffer from hot flashes and night sweats.
Breathable bamboo viscose is a fabric made from the fiber of the bamboo tree. It’s moisture-wicking, quick-drying, and in the case of the bamboo pajamas and nighties we’ve featured here, almost always blended with enough spandex to flow and move with you for the ultimate in comfort and style. From honeymoon worthy to completely cozy, you’re guaranteed a cool night’s sleep in any or all of them.

If you’re looking for the kind of bamboo pajamas that you can comfortably wear for both sleeping and lounging around in the morning or evening, these cuties are ideal. The two piece set features bottoms with a drawstring waist, roomy legs, and cute white piping details at the ankles, cuffs and collar. The man style top features a classic man’s design with all the details including a chest pocket, which is handy for a tissue.
These jammies are made of 95 percent bamboo viscose, with five percent spandex to give them just enough stretch, but also to ensure the fabric doesn’t lose its shape after a good night’s sleep. They’re machine washable, but it is recommended you hang them to dry as viscose likes to shrink a bit in the dryer. Get them in women’s sizes from Small to Xxx-Large and in more than 20 colors and patterns although not all are available in every size.
Because bamboo viscose is so breathable and light, these would be a perfect gift for women over 50 who can suffer from night sweats as they begin their transition into menopause. If you’re looking for gifts for your mom or your grandma, we’ve got some carefully curated lists with lots of cool ideas.

We love man-style pajamas for women, but most of the time they come in either slippery silk or satin, or cotton. You’ll love these cute PJs for both their styling and the fact that they’re made of 95 percent bamboo viscose and five percent spandex. They’re absolutely great for lounging around on a Saturday with your paper and coffee, and you’ll never feel awkward if someone unexpectedly shows up at the door.
Pink piping makes these black and white polka dot pajamas a standout, but we love the longer length button-down top,m traditional collar and full-length sleeves. The pajama bottoms feature a drawstring waistband so you can adjust them to be comfy after a big breakfast. Do take note, not all of these man-style pajamas are made of viscose, so check the listing information to avoid disappointment. (Or just avoid plaid and striped versions to stay safe.)
With a whopping number of color options, and women’s sizes from X-Small to XX-Large, there’s bound to be a pair or two that suits you. This similarly styled pajama set is made of 100 percent viscose, if you’re not into the added stretch of spandex in your PJs.

Made from 95% super soft bamboo viscose with 5% spandex, they flex in all the right places to be supremely comfy.
The button-down top features a man-style pocket and collar, and we love the piped detailing on the edges as well as the short sleeves. The boxer shorts have an elastic waist as well as a drawstring, and they also feature the cute piping detail around the faux cuff.

With any garment purchase, flexibility is the key. And we’re not just talking about flexible fabrics, we’re talking about flexibility in how you can wear them. That’s what makes this three piece bamboo pajama set a major win in our book. These sweet jammies come with a cute wide V-neck pullover top that features short sleeves and white trim.
Here’s the kicker. You get two (yes two) sets of bottoms, so in case the weather is warmer or colder, or you happen to be traveling during your period when overnight leakage is highly possible, you can switch between the capri length pajama bottoms and the pajama shorts, both of which feature an elastic waist. What a cool idea.
Made from sustainably sourced bamboo viscose and spandex, these pajamas come in three bright and airy colors and in women’s sizes from X-Small to X-Large.
