Product Insights
Tekla's Oatmeal And Chocolate Striped Poplin Pyjama Pant is a luxury loungewear piece rooted in founder Charlie Hedin's sailing discipline: every detail is functional, from the elastic waist and drawcord to the pockets. The 100% organic cotton poplin is lightweight, breathable, and softly stonewashed for instant comfort, yet durable with extra-long fibers and a tight weave that resists pilling, fading, and bagging. Ethically manufactured in Portugal under strict EU labor laws and concentrated in the Guimarães–Ave Valley cluster for quality control, these cropped, generously fit pants pair with a matching shirt for daytime versatility. The main tradeoff: the organic cotton may shrink 3–5% on first wash (consider sizing up), and care requires weekly cold-water washes with low spin and line drying to maintain the fabric's integrity. At $260 CAD, the price reflects skilled Portuguese labor, placing these in the premium sleepwear segment.
