From Flannels to Character Jammies, These Are the Coolest PJs for Boys
I think that we can all agree that no matter your age, pajamas are the actual best clothing on planet Earth. They're designed for maximum cozy comfort and are basically a warm hug made of fabric.
When picking out the perfect pair of jammies for your kids, you want to choose a pair that has a relaxing, comfortable fit your kids will actually want to wear. For the little boys? You want to be able to get to that diaper without any sort of impediment. And regardless of age, every pair of pajamas you invest in should be easy to clean.
Finding the perfect pair of pajamas for boys and your other littles who might not want all flowers and unicorn pajamas can be a bit of a tall order. Worry not — I have found the comfiest, coziest, best pajamas for boys on the market right now. Many of them were tested by my very own children, who cycle through pajamas quicker than a race car thanks to their lightning-fast leaps in growth.

Burt's Bees Baby

Burt's Bees is the OG of organic babywear. Your little one will love how soft these pajamas are — and you'll love how easy they are to clean.
Plus, they have a zipper instead of a common line of buttons, which we all know every parent hates to deal with during a 3 a.m. diaper change. Best of all, this pajama set comes in all sorts of adorable patterns.

You'll want to eat your child up, you'll love them so much in these pajamas. In 100% organic cotton, these Where the Wild Things Are PJs from Hanna Andersson get softer and softer each wash, lasting far longer than other, less-expensive pajamas.
Lands' End

Your little lad will swoon over the softness of these pajamas. The stretchy flannel bottoms allow for supreme levels of play, and the soft top is cozy and comfy. The chest pocket also adds a bit of extra cuteness to the pair, tying the nighttime ensemble together quite nicely.
Primary

$24.00
Primary pajamas are some of my absolute favorites. Not only are they easy to clean, but kids love them, and they come in so many fun colors and patterns. The rainbow-striped dream that is this set will cause no end of joy for your baby.
Old Navy
oldnavy.com
$29.99
If like me, you have a son who — maybe — is hard on pajamas, or again — maybe — ends up wearing PJ shirts to school, this is the set for them. It's durable as heck, and the top is a stylish henley all on its own, making these pajamas for boys a total win-win.
Children's Place
childrensplace.com
$14.98
Take your little ones' imagination to outer space with these planet-print pajamas. My kids have each have about 1,000 pairs of pajamas from Children's Place — or maybe even more.
They're affordable, they're comfortable, they're stylish, and they're super washable. Best of all? They freaking glow in the dark!
Maisonette
maisonette.com
$58.00
Let’s not lie to ourselves. While these are arguably some of the warmest, coziest pajamas ever, what they really are is an opportunity.
These are fantastic holiday pajamas — we’re talking top-quality Christmas card pajamas. These are “taking photos lighting the menorah before bed” pajamas.
Because when you have the option to get pajamas monogrammed (like these), you know they’re good.
H&M
hm.com
$39.99
Dear H&M, thank you for being so affordable. Thank you for making the cutest styles, and also, thank you for reminding us to recycle our old clothing instead of throwing them out. (Seriously, the whole recycling program is fabulous.)
And, can I just get you to check out that incredible price for a set of three pairs of pajamas? You're welcome.
Sonic
walmart.com
$22.48
My youngest made me add this because “It’s Sonic and soft, and it’s also a button-down, which is fancy.” That would be all you need to know if we’re going on my kid’s word.
But if you want a more well-rounded answer, I’ll tell you that my youngest spilled nacho cheese all over this cozy character set in a late-night cooking spree I was unaware of.
The moral of the story? These pajamas are durable, and with the help of a little Oxyclean, they’re able to survive even the dirtiest of late-night shenanigans.
