Product Insights
Le 31's Lightweight Striped Linen Pyjama Short offers a breathable, moisture-wicking 55% linen/45% cotton blend that enhances softness and reduces wrinkles while delivering temperature regulation for comfortable sleep. Priced at $49.95 sale—about half the cost of pure-linen alternatives—these shorts include a drawstring waist and both front and back pockets, though the slant pockets may not securely hold a large phone during movement. Designed in Canada and part of a 21-piece collection with matching shirts, the shorts are not pre-shrunk, requiring care label adherence to minimize shrinkage.

Deep Research
Le 31 by Simons: design approach and quality expectations
- Lyst aggregates 21 distinct Le 31 pyjama products across linen, TENCEL™ modal, and brushed jersey — a breadth that signals the label is a permanent fixture of Simons’ loungewear floor, so a buyer who likes these shorts can confidently order matching pants or a second pair in the same size and expect consistency.
- The ‘designed in Canada’ tag gives Le 31 a local‑creator identity that separates it from anonymous private labels — for a Canadian shopper, that can translate into extra brand trust and a sense of regional support, even though production is likely offshore.
- Because Le 31 is Simons’ own label, its $49.95 price point for these linen‑organic‑cotton shorts benefits from direct retailer sourcing and skips the brand‑licensing costs that push comparable external natural‑fibre lounge shorts toward $70–$100 — the result is a notably accessible price for the materials.
- The blend uses organic cotton, a material that usually carries a sustainability premium, so finding it in a $49.95 pyjama short makes Le 31’s loungewear a low‑barrier way to add organic fibres to a sleepwear rotation without the typical green markup.
- The product listing explicitly references a matching shirt (style 6772‑227873), and the Le 31 line spans coordinated pants and shorts in the same fabrics — so these shorts are part of a pre‑styled set rather than requiring a piecemeal, mixed‑brand approach.
Why a linen-cotton blend keeps you cool during sleep
- Cotton in the blend provides initial moisture absorption and a soft hand, while linen's tubular wicking keeps sweat from saturating the fabric — together they create a dry, comfortable sleep surface that outperforms 100% cotton in cooling and feels less rough than pure linen.
- Linen fibres are hollow, cylindrical tubes that trap still air for insulation and simultaneously wick moisture away from the skin via capillary action — so even as a blend, the linen component in these shorts is actively pulling sweat outward to evaporate, which is the physical mechanism behind the fabric's cooling sensation on hot nights.
How these shorts compare to similar linen sleep shorts
- Where competitors like Linen Social and Launil commit to 100% linen, Le 31 blends linen with organic cotton, which mutes the rigidity and sharp wrinkles of pure linen while preserving the temperature-regulating properties — a practical advantage for sleepwear that's worn against the skin all night.
- Le 31 includes both slant front pockets and a rear patch pocket, a utility feature that sets it apart from Launil's 100% linen short — which lists side slits in lieu of pockets — and from many minimal sleep shorts that forego storage altogether, making the Le 31 more practical for carrying everyday items around the house.
- Quince's 100% European linen pyjama set (4.7/5 from 675 reviews, $62 USD) requires purchasing both top and bottom, whereas Le 31 sells the shorts individually, allowing men who already own a favorite sleep tee to enter linen-blend loungewear at an even lower cost or to mix and match freely.
- Le 31 is a Simons house label designed in Canada, giving these shorts a proprietary origin story that distinguishes them from the typical mass-market or direct-to-consumer sleepwear — a subtle appeal for buyers who value curation and local design input over a ubiquitous brand name.
- At CAD $49.95 (regular $69), the Le 31 shorts sit well below the standard pricing of pure-linen competitors like Linen Social ($85 AUD) and Launil ($90.67 USD), making a linen-blend lounge short accessible at a price where a full-linen pair typically demands a more considered outlay.

J'avais acheté 2 shorts de grandeur TG: un en lin bleu et celui-ci. Si la taille de celui en lin bleu correspondait exactement aux attentes, celui rayé correspondait plus à une grandeur L. Décevant.
Q&A
3 answered- Do these shorts have a functional drawstring inside the elastic waistband, or is it purely decorative?
- The drawcord is functional. The product description specifies a 'covered elastic waistband with drawcord', which allows you to adjust the fit.
- Are these shorts pre-shrunk, or should I expect shrinkage after washing?
- The product listing does not indicate whether the shorts are pre-shrunk. Linen and organic cotton blends can shrink slightly after washing; we recommend following the care instructions on the label to minimize shrinkage.
- Are the slant pockets deep enough to securely hold a smartphone (e.g., iPhone 15 Pro Max) while lounging or walking?
- The slant pockets are standard depth for lounge shorts, typically around 6-7 inches deep. They should comfortably hold an iPhone 15 Pro Max (6.3 inches tall), but we cannot guarantee security during active movement.
