Football jersey type shirt. Current one says “Love Tiger”. I know… corny.

In the warmer months (such as now), I usually just wear boxers and nothing else. In the cooler months, I’ll wear socks, pajama bottoms, and usually just a T-shirt.

It depends upon where I am sleeping and what the room temperature is. I prefer to sleep in a cool to cold room with either a cotton T or a flannel top. Sometimes, the location requires wearing pajama bottoms.

I wear PJs to bed most nights. In summer I wear lighter weight ones and in winter (the other 9 months of the year) I wear warmer ones.

When my wife and I are able to go to bed in the same country, removing the PJs has never been a problem!

Underwear and pj tshirt and pants. Both are light and 100 percent cotton. I could never sleep naked. I feel every little thing on my bed. When I was about 10, I had a water roach crawl under my sheets and crawl on my legs. I had pj shorts. I almost hit the ceiling. Ever since then I subconciously feel everything against my skin and if its even a hair, I jump thinking its a bug. Just can’t do it.

Boxers or nothing.

Depends if alone or with someoneā€¦ If dating someone I sleep either naked or only in a little t-shirt, if alone its one of my nightgowns or pjs top and bottom. I like to be warm and toasty in bed so if I don’t have someone to cuddle up to then I need my jammies to keep me warm.

T-shirt and panties most of the time. Occasionally I’ll feel cold and also wear my favorite Old Navy fleece pajama bottoms.

I would prefer nothing, but I need to be able to jump out of bed at any moment should there be a crisis. There is never a crisis, but I mentally have to be able to do that.
So, I wear these pajama bottoms, that I have cut the legs off of. They have pictures of Al Pachino as Scarface on them. I walk around, saying to my wife “Say hello to my little friend.”

Summer I wear shorts and a t-shirt. Can be any old t and boxerlike shorts, or matchy matchy cotton knit set.

In the winter I wear cotton or flannel sleepwear pants and a long sleeve t-shirt. Sometimes I wear an addition short sleeve t over top for added warmth. I have several pairs of cotton pants some are thin cotton and some very heavy cotton.

It’s june right now and I am still usually wearing very thin pants and a t or long sleeve t.

I have a couple night shirts, but I rarely wear them.

Once in a while if I am exhausted I will just strip off my clothes and collapse into bed, but not often.

Nuttin’! Unless my daughter’s already curled up in my bed when I go to bed, then a t-shirt and undies.

Boxers/boxer briefs

MollyMcGuire's avatar

As little as possible

Sunny2's avatar

When the weather is warm, a tee and panties or just the panties. If it’s cold, a sweatshirt and panties. For special occasions, nothing.

zenvelo's avatar

Boxers and a t-shirt, unless I am with someone, then naked.

fundevogel's avatar

I like to wear my bootleg NIN tank to bed because I love it but I’m too lily-livered to wear it out. It has a certain lyric emblazoned across it.

Yes, it’s that one.

AshLeigh's avatar

… Nothing.
Unless someone is in my room. Then I wear shorts, and a t-shirt.

wildpotato's avatar

Nothing, but I do have to keep a full set of clothes laid out near my bed so they’re immediately available in case of emergency.

augustlan's avatar

If I’m in bed, and it’s warm enough, nothing. If it’s cold, socks. Yes, naked with socks. Don’t judge me.

If I’m on the couch, a t-shirt and underwear.

a giant pair of Dr. Suess pajama pants with a giant t shirt silk screened with a really real looking picture of Sasquatch

ucme's avatar

Ranges from nowt, shorts or the wife, depending on both our moods at the time.

Earthgirl's avatar

Nothing, unless it’s very cold and even then, once I warm up under the covers I take it of f. I have a good collection of sexy and cute nightgowns though. I wear them before going to bed or in the morning at breakfast. I abhor pajamas!

Aster's avatar

A big tee shirt in summer; tee with socks in cold weather.

LuckyGuy's avatar

Cotton Tee shirt and briefs – all seasons.

annewilliams5's avatar

Old pair of scrubs or pj’s. They have to be soft.

Facade's avatar

Nothing. I can’t sleep in clothes, and gynecologists recommend letting yourself “breathe” at night, so nekkitness abounds.

OpryLeigh's avatar

Nothing.

On the odd occasion that I am staying at someone else’s house then I will wear a baggy tshirt.

Keep_on_running's avatar

Undies and a shirt mostly. Taking off a pair of undies at night and putting a new pair (does anyone put the same pair back on? lol) on in the morning is another step in the morning routine I really couldn’t be bothered doing.

I aim to minimise the amount of actions I have to perform after waking up…

Neizvestnaya's avatar

When my body looks great (to me) then I like to sleep naked, it feels so good! When my body is annoying me then I’ll wear undies and a t-shirt.

Berserker's avatar

Nothing, I have huge puffy blankets I bury myself in, so I never have to worry about being cold. In fact the heating in my room has never been on, and I keep my window open as much as I possibly can. I like the cold air around when I’m all toasty. And Summer sucks.

fundevogel's avatar

She also sleeps in a dead polar bear.

Berserker's avatar

Yeah, I thought it would be convenient to do so, since if I wake up at night and feel hungry, I could take a bite out of it. But fucking thing is always frozen solid.

Seriously though, I love the cold. provided I have puffy dead bears blankets to be warm in.

fundevogel's avatar

That is disappointing. Maybe you should keep a kitchen torch under your pillow for emergencies.

I like the cold until I have to crowbar myself out of whatever I’m snuggling in.

Berserker's avatar

But all I have are axes that I made from the bones of my enemies.

AngryWhiteMale's avatar

Nothing, unless it’s supercold (dead of winter), then I’ll wear a shirt. Of course, if visiting friends/relatives and I’m in a more public area (such as a couch or air bed), I’ll wear underwear and a shirt. Like @wildpotato, I keep some clothes next to the bed, for an emergency (it’s earthquake country, and I don’t think I want to be fleeing in my birthday suit…).

ratboy's avatar

I sleep in my bare skin; if I’m feeling particularly daring, I take that off too.

fundevogel's avatar

@Symbeline Well that won’t do. Perhaps next time you visit Baldr’s Cheese and Mead Imporium you should swing by a Halberds n’ Things and stock up.

@ratboy Your bear skin you say?

josie's avatar

If my girlfriend is in town, usually wind up wearing nothing. If she is gone, underwear and a “wife beater”

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@josie I’m not sure I want to know but what’s a “wife beater”?

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@josie That’s one impressive male specimen. Not. lol

Maybe this is more like the image I was trying to get across.

Adirondackwannabe's avatar

@josie I got what you meant for the shirt.

Berserker's avatar

@fundevogel I’ll pick up a Gaelic cross souvenir for you, too. :D

Earthgirl's avatar

@ratboy Great! that’s the guy who put “wifebeater” on the map.
