How to Care for Your Linen PJs So They Last Forever (Almost)

Investing in a quality linen pj set is worth every.single.cent!  And although they are pretty low maintenance (just the way we like it!) we do have a couple of tips for you to ensure they look.. and feel good!, for years to come

Washing Tips for Linen PJ's:

  • Wash Less Frequently: Linen is naturally antibacterial which means you can get an extra night or two out of your linen PJ set than anything in a blended fabric before they need a wash - good for you, your to-do list and the planet 
  • Gentle Cycle: Use cold water and a mild detergent (we love the Koala Eco laundry wash) Avoid bleach, which can weaken the fibres in the linen (and not so great for the planet!)
  • Separate Colors: Wash light and dark separately to prevent bleeding and keep them fresh and bright

Drying Advice:

  • Air Dry: Shake them out (to avoid wrinkles for those who are allergic to the iron), then hang to dry. Our linen pj's are hand-dyed in Bali so if using a dryer, opt for a low delicate heat setting to prevent fading over time

Storage Suggestions:

  • Fold, Don't Hang: To maintain shape, fold your PJs neatly. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight

Linen PJs are an investment in your downtime. Treat them right, and you'll be wearing them for a very long time
