Judging by the steamy July forecast, getting ample beauty sleep may prove challenging this season. And, face it, there’s only so much a ceiling fan can do to chill your bedroom. Vancouver-based sustainable sleepwear brand SONS has a solution for this warm-weather quandary: a bespoke line of breathable, 100 per cent cotton pyjamas to keep you cool through those long, hot summer nights.
Carly Jefferson, co-founder of SONS, wanted to design long-lasting products “that feel like getting into a fresh set of cotton sheets”. Crisp, comfortable and stylish, the debut collection delivers on this promise. Think: laundry day in Tuscany. By focusing on ethical, slow production practices, Jefferson and her best friend, Tlell Wilson, have created sleep sets (starting at $175) worthy of a mainstay status in your all-season capsule wardrobe.
SONS sleepwear is made in partnership with a small-scale supplier in Dongguan, China, where factory employees are provided a “safe working environment and competitive wages”. The brand’s humanitarian efforts extend even further, with proceeds from every sale going to a women’s charity in Bwindi, Uganda, not far from where Jefferson grew up.
Nap enthusiasts, soccer moms and remote workers alike will revel in the versatility of these roll-out-of-bed sets, each one made with durable, temperature-insulating cotton and aptly named after a day of the week. Monday is your classic pyjama fare, elevated, Wednesday’s a day-to-night shorts set, and then there’s Friday, the flirtiest of them all. Complete the look with matching floral scrunchies ($25 for a pack of three), Box-Hers ($62) and satin eye masks ($16), available for purchase online and at select retailers in Vancouver. —Sierra Riley
