Best. Sleepwear. Ever.

Hanna Andersson Long Johns

The Oregon based Hanna Andersson (go there) has, for over 20 years, been offering the most vibrant, comfortable, soft and distinctive long johns for adults and children. Most often used as sleepwear, these fabulous garments are made in Peru from 100% organic cotton, feature flatlock seams and very soft ribknit. It is almost impossible to match their rich dyes and bold stripes. What they do so marvelously well is to combine this with classic cuts. (If one wants the alternating white and bright color combinations, the spring collection is when these are most commonly offered, as opposed to the fall collection, which features alternating stripes, usually excluding white.)

Like so many high quality products, they hold up well over time; their colors staying vibrant for years. They are sized and designed for comfort, yet do not compromise looks. It is not uncommon for three generations within a family to be wearing these.
