ExOfficio Travel Sleepwear
When you’re packing light, it’s hard to justify room for sleepwear, pajamas, or a nightgown. But if you’re going to be in hostels, hotels with shared bath, or will be sleeping in people’s homes, there will be plenty of times you wish you had something to cover up in at night. We guys can get by with boxers and a half-clean t-shirt (or less), but it’s admittedly tougher if you’re a woman.
My traveling companion wife has been trying out a matching set of Give-n-Go sleepwear from ExOfficio: a tank tee sleepwear top and capri sleep pants.
“I love this stuff!” was the verdict after using both for a couple weeks. “Super comfortable and cool, but I’m covered up if someone walks in or I need to get up and go to the bathroom. I even wore the outfit to yoga class once.”
This sleepwear is made out of the same material as the ExOfficio travel underwear, which I’m a big fan of. (More on that in another review later.) Everything from this line is great for sink washing and fast drying, even though it’s absorbent and has odor-fighting properties. You can squish it all into a corner in your bag and it won’t add much at all in the way of bulk or weight. The top can pull double-duty action too, working as a layer under a blouse.
The Give-n-Go sleepwear tops and capri pants come in berry, black, or “bambu” print. My reviewer says they come “true to size,” but note that they are made of stretchy material and are meant to fit snugly.
Based on all the other clothing I’ve tried out from this company and the rave reviews I’ve heard from other travelers, this sleepwear will keep looking good for years and will stay comfortable.
