Are you a pantsless sleeper? I am. Maybe that’s TMI, but to me, there’s nothing better than sleeping sans pants. But that makes the underwear I choose to sleep in extra important. You want something that’s stylish, but more importantly they NEED to be comfortable! And there’s lots of ways underwear can be uncomfortable. Too tight, too loose, too wedgie prone.

We’ve compiled the best bedtime underwear options, in a myriad of cuts and styles. Hopefully there’s something for everyone here. No more squirming and tugging, just peaceful, pantsless sleep for all!
