Women's Size Guide

We have tried to make our sizing as accurate as possible, but if you fall between two pyjama sizes we would generally suggest sizing down in cottons as they tend to come up on the generous side (particularly brushed cottons as they have more give in the fabric). The silk pyjamas are true to size so we wouldn't recommend sizing down in the silks. Our nightshirts and dressing gowns do come up slightly smaller than the pyjamas so there is a separate size guide for them if you scroll down below.

Please note the measurements below are body measurements, not garment measurements:

Vests: designed to be close fitting - if you prefer a slightly looser fit we recommend sizing up.
Cotton trousers/pyjamas/shorts: true to generous fit.
Silk trousers/pyjamas/shorts: true fit.

Regular size fits inside leg of up to 31.5".
Tall size fits inside leg of up to 34" and has an extra 2.5 inches on the leg length, 1 extra inch on the sleeve length and 2 extra inches on the jacket length.
Extra tall size fits inside leg of up to 36" and has an extra 4.5" on the leg length, 2 extra inches on the sleeve and 2 extra inches on the jacket length (compared to the regular size).
Please note that the inside leg measurements are body measurements, not garment measurements. The inside leg on the garment will measure shorter than 31.5"/34"/36". This is due to the fact that pyjamas have a lower hanging crotch than a conventional pair of trousers so this has to be accounted for in the trouser length. As a very general rule of thumb, women of 5'9" upwards tend to need the 'tall' size and anyone taller than 5'11" tends to need the extra tall size, but please bear in mind that we are all proportioned differently!

Men's Size Guide

All the nightwear within the PJ Pan men's nightwear collection is available in five sizes. As above with the ladies collection, if you are trying to decide between two sizes, we would suggest going for the smaller size as our sizes are more on the generous side than the other way round.

Please note the measurements below are body measurements, not garment measurements:

S 36" - 38" 30" - 33" Up to 34"

Regular size trousers fits inside leg of up to 34" 
Tall size (available in M-XXL) fits inside leg of up to 36" and has two extra inches on the leg length, one and a half extra inches on the sleeves and one extra inch on the jacket length.
Please note that the inside leg measurements are body measurements, not garment measurements. The inside leg on the garment will measure shorter than 34"/36". This is due to the fact that pyjamas have a lower hanging crotch than a conventional pair of trousers so this has to be accounted for in the trouser length. As a general rule of thumb, men taller than 6'2" tend to need the tall size, but please bear in mind that we are all proportioned differently!

Nightshirts: true to generous fit.
Approx 116cm measured down centre back from base of collar to hem on size M.

Dressing gowns: true fit.

T-shirts: true fit.


Children's Size Guide

The sizing for our children's pyjamas and pyjama bottoms are based on dual sizes, so they are designed to fit the age at the upper end of the size. The leg lengths are generous but can of course be taken up if needed. All trousers have a functional drawstring so they can be tightened if the child has a small waist.

Please note the height, waist and chest measurements below are body measurements, not garment measurements:
