The good news is that there are pyjamas that have been designed precisely for this problem. The DEEPSLEEPWEAR collection by CALIDA is specially designed for people who struggle with overheating or temperature fluctuations during the night. We’ll show you how to find the perfect pyjamas to combat your night sweats.

The key points
There are many causes of night sweats, such as a warm bedroom, unhealthy habits or hormonal changes.
Your choice of sleepwear is key: breathable fabrics such as TENCEL™, linen or SeaCell™ regulate body temperature and keep moisture in check.
In CALIDA’s DEEPSLEEPWEAR collection, you’ll find breathable, cooling pyjamas that are ideal for night sweats or fluctuating body temperature.

Night sweats keeping you awake? Here are some of the possible causes
In order to be able to sleep restfully at night without becoming drenched in sweat, it is advisable to take a closer look at your body and your sleeping environment. Night sweats can often be combated by making small changes.
Temperature in the room is too high
The optimal bedroom temperature is between 16°C and 18°C, but it can quickly become significantly warmer, especially in summer or if the ventilation is poor. When the heat builds up, the body reacts by sweating in order to cool itself down. In synthetic sleepwear, moisture stays on the skin. The result? You’re soaking wet in bed and keep waking up. In addition to keeping the room temperature as low as possible, you should pay particular attention to bed linen and pyjamas made from breathable, natural materials.
Unhealthy lifestyle
Alcohol, nicotine, caffeine and heavy food can increase body temperature before going to bed and contribute to night sweats. Stress or an irregular sleep routine also have an impact on your sleep quality. In addition to the right sleepwear, you should also make sure to lead a balanced, healthy lifestyle for the sake of your health and your body’s ability to recover.
Hormones and menopause
Hormonal changes can also lead to night sweats. Women going through the menopause are particularly likely to report sudden hot flushes at night – often followed by a feeling of shivering. This mixture of sweating and freezing calls for sleepwear that can both absorb moisture and regulate body temperature. You can find pyjamas like these in the Balancing line in our DEEPSLEEPWEAR collection, for example.
Synthetic bedding and sleepwear
Synthetic materials are a common culprit behind night sweats. Polyester, elastane and the like are easy to care for, but not breathable. They retain heat and do not allow air to circulate. This means overheating, restless sleep and fabrics that stick uncomfortably to your skin. For the most comfortable night’s sleep, you should therefore opt for sleepwear and bedding made from breathable natural fibres that work for you and not against you.
Breathable pyjamas regulate body temperature and absorb moisture
For decades, CALIDA has relied on natural materials that ensure a healthy sleeping climate and a restful night’s sleep. Selected breathable fabrics such as TENCEL™, cotton, linen and SeaCell™ wick away moisture perfectly and have a cooling, balancing or warming effect, depending on your needs. Our pyjamas are not only breathable and gentle on the skin, they are also produced using resource-efficient methods.
